Very nice , i have the 99 godzilla and i love it ..

Doesn’t that sewing machine have a great sound to it?

Let’s see the stitch quality on the opposite side of the fabric.

That's so nice! It looks as though it's in prefect condition. I have a Featherweight 221, a 201 and a 66. I love my vintage machines.

Love that flat black! And the sound of power! Way cool.

The Singer 66 models probably have the most piercing power of all the straight stitch machines. The 66-18 that you have is gorgeous, I have one myself.

I have a Godzilla that has a shuttle bobbin and a Bentwood case. I need to get it out and oil it. Thanks for the reminder.

Beautiful machine!

Thanks, I needed that…….

Singer Featherweight is the most portable.

Gosh, what a beauty! Feel better soon!

the coating of the oil over the machine do you clean it off before sewing it or does it dissipate eventurally.

hi. I recently got the same machine. I had to clean it up as it had an odor. She is now one of my favorites here. Thanks for sharing your experience. Wow. That hook break is a costly one. I have had to replace a hook or two. Stay well.

Nice job and beautiful machine. Hope you're okay, you sounded a little hoarse. Take care

Thank you for the information. I was given the model 628 with all the attachments and cams. I am cleaning it up and doing some practice stitching and passing to my daughter who asked for a machine. I wasn't even sure I wanted it from the terrible stories I heard online. Glad I did more research and found your channel.

Can you show me how to get the top of f a model 148- 12070 serial 91736 what do you think?

Awesome ideas thank you🎉

I have looked at the sewing tables at Home Depot but can’t decide what size to get.

The post height is adjustable. There is a set screw on the back of the machine.

LOL, I am looking at the logo of your channel and it is clearly a Soviet Podolsk142/Chayka142M with Polish TUR2 motor mounted. 😆😆 yeah, exactly Podolsk142. Very robust machine by the way. Unfortunately they lacked quality control and it needed an extensive servicing after the factory.

I'm the kind of guy. Who would keep the names. Even though I bought it from a second hand store. It's part of the machine's history. It gives it a life and a story.

A thing of beauty! Do you think this is like the 222?

I have that machine. It's a great quilter. I use it in a cabinet from a 1940's 117.141

Hola quisiera me ayudarán ,recién tengo una máquina pfaff230 y cualquier comentario sería de mucha ayuda gracias

What a cool machine. Im glad You know how to thread it. That's alot. And the drop table, sweet. Sounds powerful too!

I just restored a 301. It's cute and puggy. It's keeper

Yes! Thank you so much for talking about the tension.

Thanks much 🌻

oh yea ! My friend said the tensioner was very sensitive on my 360. I gave it to her to see what she could do.... what a nice sound to hear these run. I told her about your video and how to thread them. mine is the two tone paint job and lots of little bits and a carrying case. FWIW.

I wanted to compare the aftermarket hand crank to the original Simanco hand crank for my Singers. The differences are immediately obvious. The Simanco is much heavier and everything works smoothly. The aftermarket was lightweight and the moving parts didn't move as they should and the holes to lock down the crank were not in line. The aftermarket handcrank was a total waste of money.

Did I just see an Elna SU come out of that bag?

I just got one from my neighbor for my grand daughter who is 7 and is showing an interest in learning to sew. It didn't need much for cleaning but I oiled it and needing to grease it once it arrives from Amazon but it sews really really slow. Not sure why. Any suggestions?

the dressmaker looks like a brother machine a bitmthe bed part

You pronunciation is pretty close. “La vencedora” means something like “the victorious one”, or as Singer translates it “the Victrix.” It sounds a lot more empowered and inspiring in Spanish, I assure you!. 😂 The 128 was the first machine made for home use, so it was a befitting name, no doubt.

Yes! Give me some 😊

I'm a year late to this conversation, but was very excited to see your little blue, un-badged Japanese machine (4th one you showed). I just picked up its twin for $10 at my local thrift store. Mine does have its seller's badge, saying "Barnards". In doing some research on it, I was horrified to learn that some people actually remove the name plates because they collect them! Under my stitch length regulator is an additional metal badge saying, "DeLuxe 195", though it is clearly a Class 15 clone. I've heard the Japanese machine market liked to use the words 'DeLuxe' and 'Precision' on their exports, and some of my others bear that out. The underneath parts are stamped "NA DeLuxe". Like yours, my Little Blue has the classy striped nose-plate with tensioner, and is clean of decals. I wasn't going to let anymore machines 'follow me home', but, like you guys, I'm totally hooked, and this one's a little beauty! Thank you for sharing your finds. I feel I'm among friends here!

I started collecting a few months ago when i unearthed a 1948 singer 201-2 from my attic in a # 40 cabinet, I now have a model 27 treadle and a 15-91 in cabinet # 42, I'm awaiting delivery of a singer 20 just for fun. The 201 is Zen to use, whisper quiet, strong, smooth. A singer 403a will be my next machine i think.

I hav crazy over vintage sewing machine

Thanks for the videos we have 4 sewing machienes and growing. Picking up a 1925 Franklin rotary soon

Awesome Machines, We are looking for a Singer 500A Rocketeer right now. We collect old sewing machines as well. We have a couple of 128's a 401, a 301, 2 touch Tronic 2010's and many others.

I dont understand how to thread the string to it. I understand theres a boppin that need to go underneath, dont know how to place the string. Can you show us ?

This was an awesome video guys, I really enjoyed it. I’ve watched your videos before but this one made me subscribe. I love seeing how other people organise their space. I only have a cottage with limited area to store or sew, so any tips or hints for space management appreciated! 🙏

I found a pfaff 230 on the side walk. Took it back home alone on the third floor. Kinda heavy. Still working. Looking to understand how to use sewing machine

Lithium grease is less preferable than Triflow grease. Lithium becomes really stiff with time. Triflow does not.. Just from experience. Outstanding videos. Good job! thanks .

Your machines make a wonderful collection. At one time I was collecting all different old machines but passed up some I wish I had bought. I eventually narrowed my love of old sewing machines to Featherweights.

❤the sewing machine museum

Fabulous!!!! I may have said this before, but I this video is superb! So many ideas to help me.

They are made in Twain

I was gifted a machine just like yours. Do you know what size needle it takes and the best sizes of thread?
