    Hello All,

    I am glad to announce that the Tutorials that everyone has been wanting are coming to life as we speak!!!! They will be in several installments because of all the information I am having to cover and I hope I can put it all into words with the help of plenty of photos.

    I am figuring that we need to cover the basics and then some...... Electrical (to me the MOST important one), Disassembly, Cleaning, Assembly, Cabinet refinishing, and Upkeep and Maintenance.

    The first installment will be the Disassembly of the machine.

    I just hope these will be helpful for anyone wanting to work on their own machines and maybe we can start saving more of them and using them for our quilting projects.

    Billy

    Thank you Billy!!

    I know I have been waiting for these tute's.

    It will make it easier for me to tear into a machine without worrying about messing it up, for instance breaking the bobbin winder! LOL!

    :) :) :)

    This is going to be wonderful.

    Wow this will be a superb resource. Is the dismantle of a machine the same for Electric as it will be for my Treadle?
