I guess I should have explained that better!! Most people take Ray's class once or take the beginning and advanced and stop there. My girlfriend and I took the advanced several times as we would work on machines all year long, save up particularly difficult problems, and take them to the advanced classes to learn how to fix them. For instance, I learned to change the motor pulley in the early Elna Supers and the cam stack in the Viking 6000 series. (Not that I want to do it again, but I certainly learned how!) At the last class we took, Pam took her serger apart and fixed it.

Yes, Ray's classes are expensive, but if you fix one or two machines yourself, it's paid for itself.
