I have my Mothers Wizard just like yours!! Her first machine, she made all our clothes with it. It is a work horse machine and she could fly on it!! Very reliable machine!! Nice to see another one. Hers came from a local hardware store in about 1959 or 1960. Great memories!😊
That's great. Glad to know there are more out there and that they are good machines. That checks out, as since this video we have come to understand that the Wizard brand was sold as a homewares brand at a hardware store. Thanks for sharing!
Congrats on your new grandchild! Great to see you guys again. Love your videos, beautiful machines.
Thank you so much! That means a lot to us both :) Thanks for watching!
I'll bet the New Home Memory is an earlier version of the Janome Memory Craft machines. I have a Janome Memory Craft 3000, and I love it! Thanks for sharing these beautiful finds!
That's great! You are probably right. Such cool machines :) Thanks for watching!
Im so excited for you two! How awesome, win win win win!
Thank you so much! We are very fortunate and also pretty lucky at times :) Thanks for watching!
Congrats!!!
Thank you so much!
Older machines are simply better. I have a Jones Buttonmatic and i could probably throw that thing off a building and it would still work perfectly
Lol. Ya, they don't make them like they used to. Most of todays domestic machines are considered disposable. Not familiar with the Jones Buttonmatic. Will have to check that one out online. Thanks for watching!
I am totally fan-girling over here!! Love all of these machines. My first machine (that wasn't my mother's) is a New Home. She has something wrong, which I haven't figured out yet so she is sitting in a closet right now. I miss her even more after seeing the 2 New Homes you showed. Thank you for fueling my sewing machine addiction!! I would love to see more detailed about each of these machines.
Thank you so much for watching! Lol. Ya, we feel the same :) Sorry to hear about your machine not running. I am sure that you will get her figured out and back in service soon. Glad that we are helping you fuel your machine hobby. That is the very best part of making videos :) Thanks for the comment!
Congratulations!!!
Thank you so much! Thanks for watching!
Congratulations on your new grandchild ❤ I own a wizard made by Brother
Thank you so much! That is cool. We love our new Wizard machine as well. Thanks for watching!
I get excited everyone I see you post a video. Love that new home machine!
Thank you so much! Thanks for watching!
I’m a sucker for blue and green colored machines 😂🤷🏻♂️
Ya, they are sooo cool :)
Wizard was a brand from Western Auto.
Great info. Thanks!
hi there. I love your new haul. I see something similar with the Sewmor and a machine I had. It was a Dressmaker 7000. I think if you look at that manual you will see how you hold in the R button and adjust that slider below it (or some sequence like that.) The first New Home you showed reminds me of my Kenmore 158. Very similar. I am super excited for the second New Home as well. I hope you get to do embroidery on it and show us how that is done.
You made some great purchases. Happy you rescued them. I have been doing some of the same. I am doing a series on painting a Featherweight if You wan tot take a look. Very different from what you are doing but in the same vain.
Keep them coming. Congrats on the new Baby Shark!!! Grands are perfect. Stay safe. Be well.
Thank you so much! Great info and advice here. Thanks! We will check out your channel for sure. Hope to make more content on these great machines. Thanks for the congrats and thanks for watching!
What a great shopping trip you had there!
Thank you so much! Ya, we really got lucky on this run. God bless the good folks that take the time to donate these wonderful machines to good causes so that people like us can give them a second life. Thanks for watching!
I absolutely love your videos. I think sewing machines and their history are so interesting. We’ve been gifted a Monarch that we need to check out. At first glance, it may only need a new cord. Have you acquired one and done a video on it. If so I’d love to see it.
Thank you so much! Glad that you are enjoying our content. That is great that you have been gifted a machine. Not really familiar with the Monarch line. I will have to check that one out. Thanks for watching!
My husband's Grandmother had Wizard. It was purchased at Gambles Variety Store in the early 1960's.
Wow, that is cool. Seems like a pretty rare badging.
The Coronado was sold by Gambles, too. It was actually a Brother but branded a Coronado. My mother found out the hard way that the Gambles man wasn't a sewing machine repair expert.
They are fabulous looking machines. Hope you're able to some videos of them working. Thank you so much guys.
Thank you so much! We will definitely be showing more of these machines :) Thanks for watching!
Y’all should look in the book for the copy right date, that will tell you how old the machine is
Great idea. Thanks!
I had that same New Home XR-7. They're quite rare, because they cost $900.00 US, in 1979. The manual is almost impossible to find, but someone in a New Home FB group uploaded one-- it's essential. By the way, the brown button isn't the reverse switch (as I wrongly assumed and almost broke the machine.) It's some sort of needle stop control, I think. There's plastic gears and a small circuit board inside. A broken gear did mine in. Also a thrift find, not near as nice as yours & no case, though it did have all its on-board feet! Good luck with all your new sewing buddies, and congratulations on the biggest treasure of all, that sweet grandbaby!
Forgot to add, the B. S. setting is for basting stitch. It will sew one stitch with each press of the pedal. The sewing bed just pulls straight off. Just friction pins hold it on. If I still have a copy of the manual, I'll let you know.
That is all really great info. Thanks! Ya, I really love that machine. I can't wait to get it up and running. Sorry to hear that you had a gear go down in yours. This seems like the kind of machine that would be good to have a 2nd parts machine around. Not likely to run across another one at a thrift store, but will definitely keep an eye out :) Thanks for sharing!
Oh wow...a copy of the manual would be great! Basting stich huh? Very interesting. Thanks for the info!
@@NeverTooMany2023In digging for the manual, I found my copy of the Service Manual as well. How can I get them to you? Forgive me, but I'm a pretty new user of YT comments.
@@tessTN That is wonderful! Thanks. Looks like you found our email address. I will check them out. Thanks again!
Nice! Congratulations on these beauties❤
Thank you so much! Thanks for watching!
So many great scores! It's really fun watching you two investigate your "new" machines. I'm looking forward to seeing more on these after you oil them up and experiment with what they can do.
Thank you so much! Glad that you enjoy watching. We just really love getting these old machines home and playing with them. More to come... :)
Bluesteel ❤ Awesome machine ❤
We could not agree more! Thanks for watching
That Wizard looks sweet!
Ya, we haven't ever seen a machine quite that color before. We really like it as well. Thanks!
These are great! Apparently the 900 series Sewmor machines were made in Belgium! So, possibly the motor is original. Thanks for this video.
That is very interesting. Thanks for the info!
New Home was purchased by Janome in 1960 but kept their branding because they were such a good, reputable name in sewing machines. The first New Home machine looks like it might be a grandfather to the Memory Craft line. What a gold star find!!
Thanks for the info! Ya, we got super lucky on this one. Can't wait to see them in action. Thanks for watching!
Looking forward to seeing both New Homes up and running. Janome knew what it was doing when it bought this brand. Janome makes a very fine machine now too.
@@joanntelzrow6185 We will definitely do that. Thanks!
Love seeing your new finds!
Thank you so much! Thanks for watching!
I got a slow cooker for a wedding gift in 1977 that was called a “ Wizard “, how funny
Lol. Ya, it seems as though the Wizard brand got put onto quite a few household items. Thanks!
I just acquired a turn of the century New Home Treadle - so fun but challenging , treadling isn't as easy as I thought.
love the machines you found!
Congrats to you on the new treadle. I haven't seen a New Home treadle before. I am sure it is super cool :) Ya, running a treadle is an artform. It takes quite a bit of coordination. Don't worry though, it gets easier with practice. Thanks for watching!
Congratulations. I just purchased a sewmore sewing machine. It sees like a dream,but it is so heavy. Thanks for sharing all your machines
Thank you so much! That is great. Congrats on your new machine :) Thanks for watching!
I love the hidden foot compartment, and I can't wait to see what that embroidery machine can do!! Embroidery by hand is so hard 😭 I saw some bugs in that pattern book 🤔❤
For sure. We hope to show that machine working and making cool stuff!
On the first New Home, there is a selection of feet underneath the top flap of the machine. I found mine at a thrift store, too.
Sooo neat right? That is cool that you found one as well :)
I'm not sure about sewing machines but "Wizard" was connected to the Western Auto Stores merchandise.
Wow! You are so right! We just looked up images and brochures for the Western Auto Supply Company and we saw the same Wizard logo and font there. We looked further and were able to locate the exact machine's owner's manual with the Western Auto Supply Company logo on the bottom of the front cover. You win!!!
The stitch length has a locking mechanism that sets the length
Awesome. That checks out. Thanks for the info :)
🧸👍🏽🧡🧡
Thank you so much!
First and foremost when it comes to machine reviews. I want to know which ones have absolutely no plastic insides esp.the stitch cam. People that sell machines online never address this besides saying the machine is "running" simply because it goes hop hop.
Sounds good. Thanks for watching.
