- Maybe the best sewing machine ever made.
One of the strongest home sewing machine with the "potted" motor. All steel gears and no belts. Black
It has a very good stitch length adjustment system that includes reverse. Beautiful straight stitches.
I put a new winder tire on, grease and oil throughout and some minor adjustments and this baby is sewing flawlessly.
Made in the USA,1957
Looks like my grandma’s machine. It was so smooth and yet the strongest sewing machine I’ve ever used. My grandma was a dancer and made all her own costumes. My grandpa was a repair man so he kept it going. Watching you sew and tinker with it brings back good memories.
That's awesome. Thanks
My late grandmother's machine has been a tailor like this, and my uncle's wife has been using the machine for years, and it is still intact.😊
I have my mom's. It was a very expensive machine in it's day. (Mine is 1949). I have the original paperwork, receipt, instructions and several (very expensive for the time) original attachments. My grandmother took out a six month loan to buy it for my 17 year old mom. I love the machine.
B8.
Carol that was a nice story you shared! I restored my grandma's 115 treadle machine and it will put down a straight stitch that can't be rivialed by any new machine and it is 106 years old now. Made in 1916.
How much were they when new?
I just bought one in honor my grandma who passed away a lot of years ago. During my childhood I learn to sewing baby dolls clothes and also my grandma was guiding me to due I love this machine!! Thanks grandma to teaching me .
I own a singer 201-2. I had a great service man in New Jersey but now that I retired to Puerto Rico, I need a complete overhaul. Tension service. My foot pedal is attached under the machine which sews with a knee lever. I love my machine. My repairman gave me a new plug and cables for it. He said my machine was a treasure find for $150! It was mint condition
Great. It will serve you a lifetime.
That machine was made when Singer sewing machines were works of art. My grandmother had a Singer very much like that one on a foot peddle stand.
Yes, true ... This machine is also a workhorse surviving generations of sewers and still providing excellent and enjoyable service.
I found one of these machines on a junk pile years ago and bought it for $5. It was in excellent condition but the motor was slow so I thought it needed a new motor. But I was wrong. All it needed was a little lubrication and it ran beautifully! I put it in a cabinet my mom had and use it occasionally. What a beautiful machine!
Yes it is a treasure,ihave one ,ans i learnt how to repair it.
Good job

God damn if only new sewing machines ran so well! They really don’t make em like they used to!
Love watching you work with this machine, one year later. It’s even more enjoyable the second time, since I understand a little more about vintage Singer vintage machines. Thanks again!
I am professional embroidery I work in this kind of machine since 30 years with out a motors ,it's a parties of pleasure every time I work.
A Beautiful Singer! Thank you so much for sharing!
What a beautiful machine
Work with elegance
Totally elegant machine
Beautiful. Just love the sound!
👂👍🙏
I have a 1941 201-2 and a 1961 Featherweight 221k Red S. My collection is complete! 😍
Beautiful vantage sewing machine- beaucoup d'élégance! It brings back memories of my childhood in Haïti where the women in my family (mom, aunts and the uncles too ) use such a sewing machine to sew on and earn their living sewing. I wish to own one of these today as they bring those fond memories of my childhood in Haïti to me. Merci pour la vidéo.
Essas máquinas antigas da Singer são absurdamente estáveis! Os dentes impelentes centralizados conferem um ótimo ritmo para a costura! Sempre que preciso costurar com linha 20 ou 30 uso a minha pretinha 15c feita em 1954, é só substituir a linha e pronto. Tenho uma JUKI industrial (também excepcional), mas para costurar com linha 20 ou 30 só trocando a chapa da agulha e o jogo de dentes impelentes, até comprei essas peças na Pancostura, loja na qual comprei a JUKI, mas dá um trabalho trocar!
Beautiful machine and it looks like it works well. Thank you so much for your video.
Thank you for this..I was having a heck of a time finding the machine that matches mine..
right on
No se preocupe hay muchas lo que pasa que hay personas que les da pena decir que la tienen y todavía la usan la mis ni la vendo ni la cambio , aunque traiga inteligencia artificial 😂😂😂
I liked your demonstration, the only one who shows the foot pedal hook up. I needed this especially because having just gotten one the foot pedal cord was yanked out and I couldn’t even figure out from where. Thank you very much.
I am glad to have been of some help.
I love both of my 201-2's (and my 15-91!) ...
💪💪👍🍀
Excellent. Had I not been watching UA-cam and studying about Featherweights and 201-2 machines, I would not have followed the video. Since I’ve been learning about them, it was an excellent review of functions in a silent movie format. Thank you.

WOW! Who could not fall in love with that machine???
Love that kind of sawing machine
moms used to have one of those" beautiful.
You can download a free manual from singer. This machine takes standard needles sold today inserted with the flat facing left ( I think!) Threaded from right to left through the eye different from most other machines on the planet. Singer and smetchz are both excellent brands. For leather you want a larger size 16 or 18 and they generally say leather for the sharp point and larger scarf and eye for a stronger thread. Your regular foot will probably work. Sometimes scotch tape will help it glide better if it's not gliding nicely. This machine can handle the heavy stuff for an occasional job but they really aren't designed to do hours of it forever. The motor will burn up if you are trying to do lots of leather for an extended time.
minot60 The first thing to do is replace the original motor and replace it with a 3/4 to 1 amp replacement. The machine was overbuilt in all areas but the wiring. I suggest a full disassemble and rebuild. This allows one to learn how the machine works. Unfortunately most don't or are not able to perform this simple task, thus the reason for the "machines for dummies" made since the 60's. I hope people read your advice and follow it, unfortunately I rebuild so many machine era products.
+Bob Mays So much fun to rebuild! I rewired mine from the motor out when I got it with tutorials off the internet. It was gratifying to see her come back to life. I don't need a bigger motor for quilting and dressmaking. The 60 year old original is still the fastest stitcher of any machine I've owned.
Hola cómo se arma la pieza de revovinado no se como va cada pieza se.me desarmo y hay un resorte que no se donde va
@@TheMinot60 x favor en español
Thanks for sharing.
I have 201-k.
My grandmother had this machine. She didn't give it to me.
Beautiful.
Che bella!! Io adoro le macchine da cucire
Here I was thinking reverse wasn't necessary, his I'm intrigued 🧐 I love how quiet my 201-2 is.
It also has a drop feed, unscrew with fingers underneath the machine. Mine is a treadle, I love using it as it sounds so soothing. Yours is in immaculate condition. Enjoy.
I agree about the soothing sound, mine is a hand crank, and sounds like a heartbeat when working.
my granny had a treadle . she made all my cloths on it .
Our family has 2 Singer treadles, in the family for generations, wish I had someone to show me how to use them right. I do remember the sound and did try sewing on them years ago.
Thank you very much Alexander !!
Wouldn't take a million dollars for mine. It's a 1941 and works great.
This singer is the best
My Mom owned (when she was alive 🌹) a machine very similar to this one, but older. Now it is unoperative since many years. It has no motor, but pedal)...maybe bought in 1953.
Our family Singers are also treadle machines, great-grandma’s or great-great grandma’s machines. It would be great to be able to sew on them. They have the long skinny bobbins, I remember them being a bit hard to get consistent flow without bobbin snags, but I did better in shop than sewing, so that goes for any sewing machine.
I think you meant USHA machine
Porque a
Minha máquina não está correndo o tecido?
Dear, very useful is the system you have choosen to show repair and maintenance of Singer sewing machine , I would like more if you set it on varing modified version machines from 1945 to present designed . Singer and Puff are only Companies introduced Swing Machines as I know. Once purchased these standards machines are just the limit of good Machine. I have Singer since 1949 , just a few mooving parts might have been replaced one time but it's stich and service is better than any other Brand machine of present time. In average above 1.5 Hrs. a day is its use minimum. I look forward watching more vedios . thanks
I own an old Singer. I believe its from 1939. What a beast!! I love it....And, thank you for the video.
Esa máquina es un tesoro!😍😍😍
Tá mas aí é de magia mesmo quanto é
Pousada Maquiné ia ver que eu vou energia usada
Linda máquina, muito bem cuidada!!

What do I do if rotating the balance wheel doesnt move the needle or thread take-up lever?
This will help you I think. ua-cam.com/video/xdJ9R7SLVZw/v-deo.html

Awesome. I have one just like it that needs some TLC..you inspired me to get to work on it.
i ran mine with some carb-cleaner and drained out the bottom with a brush, little chunks of dried out oil grease came out, did a rinse, and filled with a teaspoon or so of 5-30 motor oil :)
Wow powerful! Where can I get one.l am in Kenya ,Africa
I have one just like it.
It works beautiful
At 1:41, winding the bobbin, the spool of thread should be placed on the lower spool pin instead of the upper spool pin.
Your are correct and I also see no issue with this method. Remember, there is more than one way to get to the grocery store.😃
Question... I have a similar Singer and the top spool pin mount looks to be pushed into the casting , How I don't know. Any ideas how to get that back to the top of the casting where it belongs? Thanks
Un autentico storico gioiello della tecnologia SINGER.....oggi invece se le fanno costruire in Cina coi cavi elettrici del Vietnam...!!!
My grandmothers had a treadle🐝🤗❤️
Aquí en Colombia ya no se consigue repuestos de la antigua máquina Singer, ejemplo el resorte que ayuda como tira hilo, y pie de Zig zag porque este modelo que tengo no lo tiene, me la regalaron y la quiero habilitar pero le faltan esas dos piezas, felicitaciones gracias, exitos.
I have same machine but no reverse. Need video info how to adjust tension and stitch length ? Mother in law in Cali Colombia had exactly same as mine but a in et had four drawers. Dad fitted motor and made case to carry around, vintage 1935/36. Wonderful machine.
Maybe you don't have the same machine if there is no reverse but here is how to change the stitch length on this machine ua-cam.com/video/mQij0XLDDwI/v-deo.html
Great video! I just purchased a Singer 201-2 that seems to have been with the original owner’s family. It works, but it is a bit dull. Do you have any suggestions for what material to use to clean it and to make it shiny like yours? Thank you very much!
You can clean and shine up the black finish on it by using a soft cotton cloth and put sewing machine oil onto the cloth and just start gently rubbing the machine with it. It will clean the surface of your machine and make it shiny again. After you done that you can rub the machine down well with a clean dry cloth and you can give it a couple coats of good car wax.
This looks like my 201-2... EXCEPT it looks like yours is a class 15 side load bobbin. Mine is a class 66 front top drop-in bobbin, 1951 Centennial model. I didn't know there was ever a 201-2 class 15 Singer. Can you tell me about this difference?
Can you advise me on needle size and thread for heavier materials like light leather and furniture fabric? Thanks
It makes me remember the time with my Mom when I still a child
Same with me, in Haïti where I grew up as a child, seeing the women sewing clothes for us and for others to make a living. Beautiful memories coming back with this beautiful and elegant vantage sewing machine... .
Thank you very much nice
When I was young I practiced with this machine beside my Mom
I just sold a Jan 1940 Singer that was all original except perhaps the light, and if it wasn't original it was last replaced in the 60s
My mother had a Singer in cabinet similar to this one. It had the original manual and the original can of lubricant. Contents... whale oil!
Outstanding!
i have singer like that it about 65 years old needs a new moter . singer use to be the finest sewing machine out there until they sold it out . i went to a brothers.
I like Brother. Sewing machine motors are easy to replace and not expensive.
An explanation is helpful as to what is going on.
Beautiful hands!!♥️🤲
Beautiful sewing machine but video could be better if you spoke to tell us what you are doing with the dials. But still love to get one of these machines in the sewing table. My nana had one with the painted flowers all over it years ago.
sure
I am absolutely mesmerized.
You are getting sleeeepyyy. lol Thanks Phyllis Walker
Mi makina es igual pero al ponerle algo gueso no me cose tira tramos largos
Oh , I will like to know how I give her that shine, I have seen using shellac ...is that the only option ?
Chelly Chevres there’s actually a wax that is made for shining these up. Check Pinterest
I'm just wondering if I should search for a 201. I have a 66 with back stitch.... What is/are the advantage(s) of a belt drive 201 vs a belt drive 66 with back stitch? I'm genuinely curious.
The 201's are inherently a smoother running machine than a 15 because they are a rotary hook machine.
Que perfeição!! Parabéns otima máquina!! Controle perfeito! Como foi adaptado o motor e o controle de velocidade?
Eu tenho uma pretinha Mas não consigo tirar essa roda ou o volante pq o parafuso não sai por nada muito bom esse vídeo
@@veralee2407, talvez um restaurador ou funcionário de antiquário possa orientá-la sobre como liberar o parafuso.
Ha vídeos no UA-cam que mostra como instalaro motor. Jogue "instalar motor mâquina de costura" na busca para encontrar.
@@veralee2407 Coloca um desengripante que sai!
I remember my mother telling me don’t use oil under the machine just special grease or something, i just adquirente a 201-2 singer, I don’t want to use something that harm the system . I just remove the spool pin that was broken, yey !
Chelly Chevres I was recently taught how to clean and oil sewing machines. There are places in the machine that need oil and other spots that need a thick lube material. I’d leave it to a professional or at least study a tutorial very carefully
Ay çok teşekürler bendede var bu makinadan annemden yadiğar bravo bravo yes.👍
Your machine stand very good. How many cost
She is a beauty!
Estás son sewin machín muelitas 🇨🇴💝
Still have the blue powder cost on the iconic gold and blue company logo....nice
The centennial badge. 💥😃
I want to buy only the motor, where is it sold?
I have one. I love the drop in bobbin. Would not go back to the type that needs a carrier after using the 201.
Göstermiş olduğunuz bilqilere tesekkurler
This machine looks just like one that I have. The serial number is AK375616. Do you know where can I find the user manual?
Try ismacs.net
Suir i want to know how to condition that kind of sewing machine, indeed i have that, the alignment of the needle, i want to know more knowledge. Thnk you.
Hermoso trabajo es un gran artista
Yo sugiero usen tela color claro e hiló obscuro para apreciar Muy bien las puntadas saludos gracias por la demostración
Gracias
I have a concern about the length of the stitches, mine (I think it's model 15, I'm not sure), it seems to me that it doesn't give stitches longer than 3/16
Данное видео напомнило, как папа сидел и работал за своим "Singer" (шил из кожи и толстого драпа ) и очень похожей швейной машиной "Lada" (шил всю остальную одежду для мужчин). + Даже моторчик-педаль той же конструкции
Üsdadım günaydın hayırlı işlerin olsun bu makinaya ne dersin uygun olursa ben alıyım evde kullanmak için saygılar cevap bekliyorum
Singer 201 iyi durumda olduğunda mükemmel bir dikiş makinesidir. Satın almadan önce makineyi test edin. İyi dikiyorsa size yıllarca iyi hizmet sunmalıdır.
This is manual? So how much can you give me details
Where can you buy one like this? I used to have a white one.
Poxa, Ganhei uma máquina dessa mas não sei usar,até veio com uma caixinha de metal com algumas peças dentro mas não sei pra que serve, a pessoa que está manuzeando devia falar pra gente saber o que ele tá fazendo.
Hi I just got this cabinet (no machine unfortunately) and I've been trying to find pictures of it online because It needs to be restored of course. K was wondering if you know the product number I too search for this particular cabinet. I believe the singer 201 or 301 was originally in it but whenever I search that I only get results for the machine and not the cabinet. Any help is greatly appreciated!
ismacs.net/singer_sewing_machine_company/singer_sewing_machine_cabinets.html
Do you know where I might get a new on/off switch for the light? The one on my 201 is broken....
Get in touch with the company on internet
Where can I find the screw spools for the 201-2, I think I heard you saying it , but I can’t find it, I check all your videos, I missed it!
Im having an issue where the bobbin is cutting off the top thread when sewing. How do I fix this?
Vuenos días como hago para mandar arrevisar una maquina para comunicarme.con un tecnico de cinger
I need a new rubber for the bobbin where the thread goes on. I have a model #117552
Where can I purchase one?
Hello l m looking for the machine but l want with cabinet. Could u tell me in Mumbai where do l get such sweing machine.
Sir, my.momma had one,but recently.i azkednwhere the same, sister told she gave it to a tailor freely. Now I am.inneed of a machine. As i.used the quality one singer. I prefer a singer only. Pls enlighten me where to approach alongwith price.
Imam ovakvu mashinu radi se sa nogom ja neumem to radila sam na struje s motorom.znam da je super Singer mashina zao mi je shto stoji tako nekoristim je....javljam se iz S.MK
As nice as the machine looks with the gear drive, and potted motor, and they were as expensive new as they came. My grandmother bought one for her only daughter, who sewed professionally. My aunt gave it back because the drop in bobbin would occasionally what she would call "Tangle and Swear" It sat in my grandmothers house until she died. Nobody wanted it. All my aunts ended up with Pfaff 130's..
In my opinion The Singer 319 was a much better machine, not only did it Zigzag, but it has a bobbin case to cut down on the tangles that the 66, 99, and the 201 always had. The 221 has a bobbin case and is small, but the 15 which was manufactured from Wheeler and Wilson, through Singer and as Asian machines for over a hundred years would be my choice if I had to settle for a straight stitch machine.
A Singer Athena was my first computer sewing machine, Drop in bobbin was unacceptable, I went back to my 306 in a treadle cabinet as it sewed smoother and faster, but it was supposed to have special needles, I have used the 130 needles without any problems.
