so happy
I have a serger about 16 yrs old.It's the Pacesetter, the one with the air threader. 2 repair shops said it was useless to try to fix and it couldn't be done. I had my son bring it into the city with him. Happy day!! they fixed it. So even if the dealer you brought it from says it can't be fixed, give it another shot. It's fixed and running like new!! Don't give up till it gets fixed!

That's great! Sometimes the repair shops really just want to sell you a new machine - sometimes they just can't get parts. Then there are some that really like the challenge and will at least try. So glad your son was able to find such a person.

glad you got yours repaired.

I'm glad you persisted until you got your machine fixed. I have one, mine is quite old also. I use it for a lot of things but it is different than a sewing machine and should not be expected to be a substitute for the sewing machine. Now, that it is repaired, what do you plan to do with it?

Years back I bought a very expensive serger...never had classes (weren't offered)...never was brave enough to use it without the classes...finally sold it when I moved to Iowa. Now I'm thinking about one again!! Sigh.....
