Thank you so very much for this incredible informative vide. I just inherited my mom's vintage Brother Profile 821, 1965 sewing machine and I would have never got this rite. I did call Brother yesterday and they sent me a PDF file, manual I printed out so again, super thankful for his video, keep them coming..
Hi ive just been gifted a Vintage Jones machine. This looks to be incredibly helpful. Although im unsure if i have a zigzag foot? It has only come with one and doesnt look wide enough although the settings are on the machine to use. Its an incredibly heavy machine. Im quiet new to sewing and only used a modern Brother so far. Have a lovely day and thanks again 😊
Your video was somewhat helpful something similar to mine but can someone post a link on how to thread a Brother Charger 661 sewing machine ? thank you
I have this machine and every time I go to sew the thread breaks, it’s a new needle and new thread. But the thread always breaks on the top. I even changed out the foot. The bobbin is properly put in as well… my tension spring might be broken? I’m not sure though
Try checking your bobbin tension as it may be too tight and that could snap the top thread. Also try threading the top. Then pull some thread and see how tight your top tension is….with the presserfoot up it should pull easily. Then put the presserfoot down and try pulling thread again and it should be difficult to pull because the tension disks are gripping it. Good luck. Michele
Hi I love your videos. I just purchased an old beautiful condition 1964 model lemair 648 sewing machine from a garage sale. But I don’t understand what the knobs and stitch patterns mean. Would it be possible to give me an email so I can send you photo of the machine so you can tell me what function the knobs have and which stitch pattern is a sstraight liner stitch please.
I have a similar brother machine.. My stitch regulator is having issues and I don't know how to go about it I was able to fix it last year when it had same issue but now I don't know what happened 😭
Anyone know anything about the Brother Galaxie 1361 sewing machine? I think It dates to the 60’s, but not sure of that. Having such a hard time locating anything about it. It is yellow and olive in color. I can’t even find a manual on it. Thanks !
Im sorry I can't help as I have not seen one of these either. Perhaps see if there is a FB group for vintage brother sewing machines that can help you. I am sure someone has one and can make a copy of it and then they could publish it online for others too. Good luck 🙂
Hi, can you show us how to put in the tensioner thing in the machine, that thing jumped to me and I can't putting again :( sorry for my bad english, I'm from Mexico
Hello Martha, I am sorry but I am not sure what you mean. Perhaps you could take some pictures or a video and send it to me at michele@heskethemporium.com x
I’m very sorry but I don’t have this machine anymore so I cannot show you how to wind this bobbin. I’m sure if you search on CZcams you will find something. Happy Sewing.
@@jennakearns7963 Hello, I have just done a video showing how to wind the Brother vintage sewing machine bobbin. I hope it helps you get sewing. czcams.com/video/v4siH_6hOms/video.html
good teacher. Thank you. I'm 65 years old and this is my first sewing machine, it's a vintage Brother from when Christ was a child.
😂❤️
I inherited my grandmother's machine identical to this. Today I needed to repair my jeans. This video was soo helpful!! Thank you.

I have just got a second hand machine but didn't know how to thread..
This has been of great help..
Thank you
Me too! That was very helpful!
Please can you make a video on how to reel thread onto the bobbin
Thank you so much! You just helped me figure out how to thread my new to me vintage Brother. Much appreciated! 💜
Vanessa, that is wonderful news. Happy sewing. x
Thank you, this is perfect for a vintage machine I've inherited 😀
Amazing! inherited sewing machines are even more special than ones we find elsewhere. Happy sewing. x

Thank you for your vidéo it was very helpful ❤.
You’re welcome 😊
Thank you, I just bought an old Brother machine and I have no idea about it.
They don’t build them solid like that anymore. That’s why it still works. I have a Lemair 684
Too right I just bought an old 1960's brother machine and it is solid heavy like a bloody tank. but thank you. this thing will sew leather no joke.

Sorry but I don't have this machine to demo.
Thanks!
The reason threads were tangled was not proper ..
If you have a 1920s domestic it threads it the same 😊
Yes, so many of the older machines are very similar as when the patents expired other manufacturers simply copied them.
Where is light ball for this machine? How do you turn it on?
