It was given to me, Let's see if we can fix this Brother XL 2600i

[@alverneseseaton1721]

Today i sat to sew on my BM 2700. D handwheel was frozen but became loose...WD 40 and 20mins later. I was ready. NOT! One of the nuts by d on/off switch fell in, so now, i have to unmount.... D WHOLE TING! I was relieved when i found this Video. Thank you so very, very, very much Mr. Sewing Machine Repair Guy Sir!

[@melaniiecampbell1527]

Oh Mr. Wes! I had to laugh when you pulled off the plastic! It IS satisfying! Thanks for the video!

[@artholio]

Thanks for the video. I oiled my old Brother machine which couldn't work properly. Now it is working like a new machine.

[@UniversalEngineer]

Earlier, I picked up this same machine at my local thrift store. Thanks for educating that an all plastic frame may bend/distort when not fully assembled-this may account for a small adjustment that’s still needed. 👏👏👏

Hello! I hope you have had a beautiful day! I just got back from a patio luncheon with my youngest daughter which was so much fun. I'm so grateful for this video that you have shared and admire your talent. You are such a great job of coming up with content. I hope you have a beautiful week ahead. Thank you for sharing this video.

[@MZfavorz]

You’re my favorite fixer upper sewing machine guy with extra special of verses! 🙌🏼 I learn a lot and now I know what to do if my machine doesn’t work! Awesomeness! Shalom ✌🏼

[@pamelawerdmullervonelgg1888]

Thank You so Much!!! I really appreciate your professional opinion and taking apart the machine so I can maintain my favorite machine!

[@georgiacruitt9527]

Let me say your videos are sharp, clear, steady, great angles, up close and personal... so I think you are a videographer :)

[@inannashu689]

I have a vintage Brother, a vintage Necchi,and a vintage Singer. The Brother is my favorite machine .

[@karenmcmullan]

G'day Wes, thank you for your video. I have a collection of pre WWII Singer machines and also old Bernina machines. I love them.i also have almost modern Husqvarna machines, about 20 years old. Thanks for the advice re oils and cleaning products. God bless you and your family, now and always

[@melissaquinton1612]

Thanks ! I have a model fairly close to this and this is really helpful .

[@tvaccount5919]

Love the plastic removal at the end 🤓 … cathartic.

[@TodayinJensSewingRoom]

I agree so heartily - why not fix something that although it's not the top of the line and can't do all the things, fix it for what it can do? I'm so glad I found you. I've taken machines apart but not known what I was doing. Now I have someone who does! Quick question: is it possible to restore plastic that has yellowed over time? I have 3 Pfaff machines that are from the 1990's and early 2000's and I LOVE them. But the covers and some parts of the machines have yellowed. Does your 303 stuff just make it shiny or does it restore the color as well?

[@bondee5865]

Great instructional video 👍🏼; it really helped us! Good Scripture too

[@lorim2074]

Terrific tutorial! Im giving my mom's XL2600i to my granddaughter and I've been having trouble ensuring the bobbin case is inserted correctly, due to some clanks and one or two thread breaks. I fixed that, but thought id keep on watching so i can learn a bit more about tension, etc. Sharing will be much nicer now after watching your video. I found out hiw to adjust thr top tension, but the manual didn't say if the bottom tension could be adjusted, when you indicated you'd adjusted the lower tension, but i didn't see where you did that. What did i miss? Thank you very much.

[@dindog22]

I really like Brother machines. especially the 1034D serger. they also make a really nice cover stitch machine

[@xandidouglas]

Thank you. Enjoyed your video - keep it up

[@elahehsoleimannejad7959]

You are one of the bests. I have a brother machine that collect threat in lower part. I want to clean it up. I opened all screws but the case is not getting off and still connected to body. How can I release it when there is no screws any more there. Thank you very much

[@cjverde49]

Thank you. These are the activities that will do so much for the world

[@sharonfournier200]

Watched your video while taking the machine apart. The “taped” screw got taken out🤦‍♀️. What problems would that create?

[@claudiarana]

Thank you it was super helpful, I just would recommend to show the assembling back because I got lost at that step hahaha😅

[@adelenepless3935]

Interesting. I have Janome machines. I have heard they have all metal parts. Each machine is heavy. I do like your channel.

[@MFJuneBug27]

Can you do a teardown of a Brother CS7000X? I CAN'T GET MINE APART!

[@JasperJanssen]

Wow, a machine without a metal frame. Didn't know it was possible.

[@genicegorman3406]

I have a little computerized Brother CS 6000i that I really like for taking for classes or group sewing. Light and easy to move. One thing that makes me curious, do you think more lint builds up around the bobbin on the drop in style bobbins?

[@seffssweetsstitches2897]

That's a good question. I have both a plastic machine and a all metal. The plastic has a drop-in bobbin and I noticed it definitely collects more lint in the bobbin area.

[@nancy9478]

My daughter has a Brother and it collects tons of lint. My Husquarna does too but not as much. Both have plastuc drop in bobbin cases.

[@gaylescovel7308]

I never thought about these plastic sewing machines as beginners to graduate up from. I just never had faith in them. Disposable is not a thing i like.

[@mtnjhutch]

This one doesn’t look very sturdy. A lot of plastic!

[@regencymanagement4374]

Thank you so much for your tutorial. It has really helped me understand how this machine works and how to clean it. What machine would you recommend for a newbie like me and one that is good quality in "metal". I like to use this one but I will eventually want something with more bells and whistles...but not too hard to figure out. Thanks so much. Have a blessed day.

[@Verrucca00]

My husband just brought me this machine from thrift store, and the upper thread gets caught around the bobbin housing. I opened it up, but i can't see what is causing it.

[@matthewmeuleman9872]

i had one of them the bobbin winder stoped working what would make that happen

[@balakrishnan2190]

In our brother sewing machine is not stitch properly what is the problem.

[@belindabrownharper4496]

I bought a cheap, low cost Singer, Walmart model sewing machine at a thrift store for $7.99. i thought, how bad can it be? I plugged it in and tested it and was pleased ,so, i bought it. Doing further tsting at home i did cursery lint removal and oil. But, after sewing a couple minutes it makes a loud noise and breaks the thread. Any ideas for me???? How do you determine when it's time to toss?

[@elmyra.jackson]

Hello,I just purchased a Singer Tradition model 2277 from a thrift store. Can you tell me where I can purchase parts....namely another bobbin case unit?

[@maggefoster2730]

How do you get the small c shaped metal back onto the knob?

[@maggefoster2730]

You showed up to take it apart but not how to get it fully back together

[@motnosniv]

make sure the knob is pushed far enough to expose the groove where the clip goes. put the clip in place then needle nose pliers to fasten the clip so it's completely in the groove. hope this helps.

[@alverneseseaton1721]

I built a sweat..as I was afraid I broke d 'pole'.

[@Shamahyadah]

Hi Ssewing Machine Repair Guy...I repair computers and I love it...I am new to sewing and I've learned things from your channel. I have a White 1525 Sewing Machine and it works great...the only issue I have with it is that...when I put my foot on the Foot Control Pedal and begin sewing the light bulb on the machine goes out....but when I take my foot off the pedal...the light comes on. It's only when I sew that the light turns off?? I've read through the manual and the troubleshooting portion as well but no mention of this. Although I am new to sewing...I don't think the light should go out when placing foot on pedal?? Can you give me direction on what to look at or things to look at?? or is this just the nature of this paticular machine??

[@janetpaden8878]

I really enjoy your videos. I do have a question for you. My sister is looking for a good beginner machine for her 9 year old granddaughter. She had purchased a Brother from Amazon. They had to return it because it just would not sew right. Do you have any suggestions on an economy machine she might try? Thank you for your videos. They are wonderful!

[@sewingmachines217]

Is it your full time job or just a hobby?

[@eliroute6922]

Hello again! Thank you for your detailed video! I have another kind of problem. I have a sewing machine working with 240 V. Is it possible to rewire it for 120V? I want to try it if it is possible. Thank you!

[@JasperJanssen]

Normally that would require replacing the motor as well as doing some stuff to the pedal, for a mechanical machine.

[@motnosniv]

you didn't have to remove the stitch selector knob.

[@gladyscalderon6686]

When I put the material to so it doesn’t grab it it stays at a standstill what can I do

[@wanlanakisayoo3913]

Hello Wes, hope you are doing fine. I have a problem with my singer sewing machine. The straight stitch works fine but the zig zag or any other stitches doesn't work. The needle could move only a little bit on the sideways. I've adjusted from the needle bar but it doesn't solve the problem. Can you help me out? It's a singer brilliance 6180 machine

[@deborah9408]

Hi, perhaps you can help me with somehting... I'm being offered a Kenmore 17892, it's an old machine and i don't know if it's good since I can't find much information on it. Do you have any idea about it?

[@gladyscalderon6686]

My machine doesn’t Rip the material it doesn’t move it saw

[@timdybala7127]

Too much plastic man!
