WOW... You transformed what looked like a hopeless rust bucket into a beauty queen! You, my friend, are a true wizard!!! She's beautiful & had such an interesting story. Thanks for sharing her with us!!!
That shuttle is for a full size model 27, my 1906 28k takes a slightly smaller shuttle with solid sides, and a slightly smaller bobbin. Love what you are doing to bring these beauties back to life!😊
Wonderful work! I have a 28 with Victorian decals that is in beautiful shape, but I must say I’m really impressed with how yours looks! I’ve seen some restorations that I don’t like the look of the decals, but this is lovely ♥️
Tolle Arbeit, sieht wieder aus wie neu! Ich habe das selbe Model, das Gott sei Dank, schon so schick aussah. Lieben❤ Gruss von der Deutsch Dänischen Grenze
I love how confident you are disassembling it completely! You probably know where every washer goes! I am still very afraid to take off more than a few rods.
I was gifted the exact machine, also in worse for wear shape. Serial Number puts it around 1911-12. Thing is, nobody warned me and I took it apart, and I mean I took it apart. Now everything is clean and shiny, but I have no clue where the parts go!
That is beautiful, that little bit of colour with the green. I have a 1900's but not sure if it's a 27 or 28. Is it the size of the bed? It has lost it's top box but I love looking at it I turn it's handle some time to roll things round but have not sewn with it yet.
Thanks! The 28 is smaller all the way around than the 27. Like a little sister. The bed is smaller than a full-size machine if you have one to compare it to.
I have a background of fixing electrical motors with rods and steel gears. Watching you put the parts back together, I would be very tempted to coat all moving parts with a coating of grease in order to decrease metal on metal friction. This is not needed with sewing machines? Also, I notice there are so many little screws. I typically use a few drops of blue thread locker (Locktite) to assure that screws do not fall out into the moving mechanisms..? Have you used locktite in the past?
Ahhh, so here's the thing, grease in general only has limited approved uses in old sewing machines. I have used a light lithium grease, though. Loctite is not typically used. A liberal use of oil is always a good thing though.
@@prometheansewingmachines thank you for your reply. I appreciate this information, as I have about 4 machines I am trying to revive. I am a leather worker, and have been experimenting with machine sewing light leather crafts. THANKS!
Hi I wondered if you could help me I have just bought a non working singer machine that has a handcraft but also was a treadle how can I make it so that it is just hand crank please. I have just found your channel and love that you too have a passion for vintage machines. I live in a small village in the UK so don't have access to any engineers locally. I would love to hear your advice please
with all the work you put into this, Do you get a good hourly wage when you sell them? I have sold some machines on Facebook, and people only pay $30-50!!

Here to listen your Papa Guitar Sewing Machine song....
I wonder if you have a prototype or display model. That would be amazing. She is a beauty.
It feels like something like that!
