That's AWESOME that she's doing so well. Here's hoping she continues to baffle her doctors and recover completely.

My 13 year old grand daughter is learning to use my Singer 66 red eye treadle. Today after homework is done, she will be making some crumb blocks. :D

Thanks for the update Miriam. I take it we can't send cards to her in the new facility? How long do they think she will be there?
I'm glad to see Ashleah's doing better. I'll keep praying too. Rodney |
We don't know how long it will take in re-hab. I'll look into the cards for the re-hab - that may be just as important - re-hab could be discouraging if it takes a long time.

Hey all, new here.
I usually fix motorcycles and computer servers, this is my first sewing machine :) My wife's favorite purse was disintegrating and hanging on by a thread and gave me some incentive to get this sewing machine up and running that I bought last year for $20. (I liked it because I thought it looked a bit like Ironman) It is a Japanese De Luxe model MSAZ. The belt was cracked and coming apart, the stick length selector was seized and the rest worked by hand with some effort. I oiled all the points and cleaned everywhere it needed and worked the oil in and now the thing spins effortlessly with no resistance, even with the bad belt the thing runs great and whisper quiet. Stich selector took some effort to fix. There was a bolt way up inside the case only accessible from the bottom that was torqued down and why it wouldn't turn, It also looks like someone hammered it back together and slightly bent the cam. I found out the hard way that if you pull this piece out it will not go back together easily unless you push the reverse button and it'll drop back in. With that fixed everything is working perfectly. I'm impressed with the quality of the internals and it sews great, effortless stitching through 8 layers of denim to fix my wifes purse straps. It only does straight and zig-zag stitches, nothing fancy but as both of us haven't sewn much in 20 years it's all we'd ever need for the occasional repair and hemming. I do like that you can drop the feed dogs and set stitch length to 0 to do cool stuff by hand though. Anyway I'd like to find out a little bit more about it, when it was made and by who if possible. Any info would be helpful. I've got some more pics here and a couple videos of it running here http://www.quiltingboard.com/attachm...d=492077&stc=1 http://www.quiltingboard.com/attachm...d=492079&stc=1 http://www.quiltingboard.com/attachm...d=492080&stc=1 |
I replied in the zigzag section too. I decided to post a pic here for you.
http://www.quiltingboard.com/attachm...d=492096&stc=1 Your machine will do decorative stitches too if you find the cams to fit it. The little door on top is where they go. Neat machine. Rodney |
I like it! The color scheme and shape are classic. And it's in very good condition, too.
