Thanks for sharing this journey. It was a really fun watch and I like the way you took us through the process. I'm glad to see this machine with you, getting the proper care and repair. You did a really great job. Greetings from North Wales UK. 🙋🏻♂🙋🏻♂
Love watching these videos going through the machine and fixing them up. I have about the same amount to go through. Can’t wait until I retire and can spend more time working on them. It is very relaxing to me and feels like a great accomplishment when it is finished.
Thank you so much! Ya, they are a lot of fun to work on and when you are done you can create and make awesome stuff :) That is great that you have a bunch of machines waiting for you. Good luck!
Thank you so much for watching! Ya, these old machines are super interesting and the workmanship is so outstanding to have lasted all of these years :)
Good work! In my case I would restore or replace the compensation spring because it is not looks like as usual. Also Vibrating Shuttle machines don't like motors and should run much slower. Did you check carbon disks inside the "pedal" behind the scenes? Disks often needs cleaning from soot and sometimes I found broken disks what should be removed.
Thank you so much! I did not check the discs inside of the controller. It had pretty good response as far as speed control is concerned, so it really never crossed my mind. It is a very good idea though. As much as I had the machine torn apart, I should have gone the extra step to check the condition on the pedal. Thanks for the suggestion and thanks for watching!

Thank you so much! I appreciate the kind words. It was a really fun machine to work on. Thanks for watching all the way from Europe!
Beautiful machine. Thank you for the step-by-step walk through of it's parts.
Thank you so much! We are really lucky to have it :) Thank you for watching!
It was fun watching you create a new machine out of an old one. She just purrs. Thanks for video
That's great! Thanks for watching. I am glad that it turned out so well. We have already pieced together a donation quilt on it and it works great!

Enjoyed watching this. I have two 128s. One needed a complete makeover. The other looks like it was never used. Thanks for sharing your journey.

Thank you for this video, so interesting to see the internal mechanics of these old machines!

Thanks for sharing. I just acquired a Singer 128K hand crank machine. Just starting to clean her up, so your video is very helpful.
That is great! Thanks for the feedback and thank you for watching. Good luck with your machine!
