    Love the verses! I'm just amazed that youcan actually remember how to put these machines back together 😮😮 May God bless you and this channel❤

  • @conqueringmountscrapmorewi2509

    Hi, I hope you had a lovely day! I had a busy day in my sewing room, playing with strings of fabric and now I get to watch you! I hope you have a beautiful week ahead. Thank you for posting this video, sharing your time and talent.

    Thank you for your service to our Country. Thank you for sharing your experience here.I have a Pfaff Hobby 1030 a friend asked me to look at. This gives me the courage to move forward with disassembly…..with her blessing. Next will be figuring out why the feed dogs only go up and down and do not feed fabric.

    According to the 160S manual it's a "Honeycomb stitch * For sewing on elastic threads, overlocking towel-
    ling and for decorative hem seams". Good video and repair...

    From submarines to sewing machines-cool! There is nothing so depressing as a badly working sewing machine. Keep up the good work.

      Yep. My dictionary says a 'chairwoman' is a "woman who serves as chairman". So, why don't we just call her the chairman?

    My PFAFF Hobby 1032 needs some parts replacements. I love the machine. It makes a heavy clicking sound🥺 Glad I found your channel.

    Boy, they sure don't design these things for easy disassembly. Kind of like working on a car. So many things need to be removed to just do a simple repair. And I knew you had to have a mechanical background because of how you work. Didn't know you served 26 years in the Navy. Now that you're retired from the Service, what attracted you to sewing machine repair? I'm considering this in retirement myself and was wondering what it would take to get up to speed and wondering if there's enough work out there to make a living. Thank you for your service, and thanks much for these videos!👍

      Lol, I wanted a hobby that could make some money. I tried hundreds of hobbies in my last 10 or so years of service. I enjoyed how each sewing machine is different and makes my use my brain.

    Mystery and surprise quarantine! I’ve never used that stitch before, but it’s beautiful.

  • @ronalddevine9587
    @ronalddevine9587 Před 2 lety +2

    First of all, thank you for your service. You don't look old enough to have spent 26 years in the US NAVY.
    I believe that stitch is called a smocking stitch. At least that's what my Kenmore book calls it.
    What a shame they didn't just increase the metal frame. That plastic sounds really cheap, like a child's toy. Keep up the good work.

  • @cityseabird
    @cityseabird Před rokem

    I'm very grateful for this video as I have this exact machine and I'm feeling tentative about using it as I don't want to break it or misalign some mysterious settings.
    I am going to follow your sewing machine repair playlist and get confidence before I start playing!

    I found that the best way to remove the screw covers is to shape a paper clip into a "Grabber" - then simply bend the end of the paper clip to about a 60 degree angle. I hope this helps you guys.

    You can also use a 1/4" socket as a little screwdriver bit handle. Another tool that works great as a little handle is a bit extension or bit holder; the type used with a drill.

    Man I think you're a genius! I wish you could fix my 1222E pfaff. But I live in or.

    Is it just me or is that machine virtually the exact same one as the little grey Singer Heavy Duty ?
    Edit: Ha no... not at all. From the outside it looks like it could have the same internals, but no, they are quite different ! The singer looks beefier, I understand why Pfaff created a new brand.

  • @elizabethburrell5151

    Hi! I have just discovered your channel and I am so happy I did! I have a Husqvarna Diamond Royal which has just refused to wind a bobbin. It worked perfectly the last time is used it, but now it refuses to wind the bobbin. There is no longer a HV repair person anywhere near my location. Is that something I could possible fix myself? Thank you so much for any advice you can offer!

    I would love to bring my sewing machine to you but you are on another continent :)
    I have just one question though:is it really that bad if the machine isn’t cleaned inside like you cleaned this one in the video? I do my best to clean the parts I can reach. I have a Brother Innovis 35 that has never been serviced but it works perfectly. It is 8 years old and I have used it lightly. Should I expect it to be very dirty inside?

    It is for this reason that I would not buy a Pfaff machine, because of its ergonomics which makes it difficult and complicated to access the mechanism 🤨

    When you checked timing, only you could see it. All we can see is your head with a hat, therefore, I have learned nothing from how to set the timing. I am sorry wasting so much time from watching the video(totally 34 minutes excluding advertisements), nothing but using the screw driver.
