That 301 is beautiful. Looks like someone really knew how to care for her.

This video is right on time! Two weeks ago I was fortunate enough to get a 301 in a cabinet from Goodwill for $19.99. I’ve been cleaning it to the best of my ability, but I got so many great tips from this video! Thank you for what you do!

Congrats on finding this beauty! I grew up with a similar machine (Mom’s), but I think it was straight-shank. It was straight-stitch only and was a great machine. When my parents lived in Pennsylvania, Dad bought the Singer for Mom on some sort of payment plan. Dad paid all the bills in those days & gave Mom $15/week for groceries. Mom actually knew nothing about their budget! Apparently, Dad was not too good about making the agreed-upon payments after my folks moved to California in 1955. Someone from Singer came to the new house and repossessed the machine! Mom was NOT happy. Dad bailed the machine out of jail for Mom. When she was pregnant with me later, (1958), Mom used the Singer to sew her maternity clothes-smock tops with bows at the neck, for example.

Wow, that is a wild story. Thanks for sharing :) It is amazing to me what kind of memories a sewing machine can stir up in folks. Pretty special. Thanks for watching!

I can't even imagine in this day and age of a Repo guy coming to get the sewing machine! Kind of shows how important a machine like this was to families. Thanks for sharing your story.

Oh, I wish I could have stopped you from that bobbin case issue. It is better to take the whole hook out from under the machine. Hooks are expensive. (I guess you found that out.) anyway, thanks for sharing. I just did an unboxing on my channel of a 301 @sewterie. I love the machine. She sews beautifully. It is great to have all the extras because of the slant foot. Other feet from other machines won't fit on there. I hope you get her working. I am sure you will enjoy it very much. From what I know about them, they sew about 1600 stitches a minute. Nothing shabby about that. Nice to see your machines always. Stay well.

Lol...Ya, the gib hook was varnished stuck pretty good. I could have saved it by removing the whole assembly and unscrewing it from the back. Next time :) I found a used bobbin assembly on Ebay for a reasonable price. Thanks for the advice. Good luck on your videos as well. Thanks for watching!
