- Here is a new video !!
It is a mini sewing machine produced by the french company "Pic-Bien" around 1950.
This antique toy sewing machine belonged to "Evelyne Martinez", her name was engraved below the base.
That would be insane if that little girl who is maybe now 70 or 80 years old could watch this video 😲. Also she would let me know how to sew properly ;)
It was in very bad shape, pretty much rusted, the handle was broken.
I also had to replace the switch and create a new label.
Please watch till the end to see this antique sewing machine in action !
By supporting the channel you help me make more of these video and find more amazing items.
I hope you'll enjoy this restoration.
Thanks a lot for watching !

Thank you ! - Jak na to + styl
Woahhh, I really like this video. Every detail and animation you've done is amazing. I really like that. And at the end of the video I was thinking, is this really an old thing from 72 years ago ⁉️
This looks like a new batch. Well done, my friend. the results are extraordinary 🤟🏻👍🏻🍻
w
wait what animation
Born in 1949, I had a very similar little hand-cranked sewing machine. It sewed in a chain stitch and started me trying to imitate my seamstress grand mother when I was around kindergarten age. At 72, I still sew and make costumes for my family, though on a Singer now. 😃
Cool!!!! Are you can use computer and internet in this Great Age 😃
I inherited a hip press one from my grandmother!
👍👍👍👍👍
I need this kind of swing machine
Evelyne Martinez is the name that was on the bottom of the sewing machine. I think the little girl's name s/b preserved in the same location, to memorialize her past ownership. Thank you for restoring such a wonderful item,
Thank you ! 🙌
The backwards 'z' she used was a cute touch.
THIS is the difference between those myriads of sewing machine repurposing videos and an actual restoration. Getting the machine back to operating condition = an actual restoration. Cleaning the rust off and repainting it = a cute repurposed piece of home decor.
Well done.
Thank you so much 🙌 Glad you enjoyed 😌🙏
I've loved this kind of restoration my whole life! To watch you do it is almost as fun as doing it myself 🤓! Great videos! I was born in 1952. I wish you could restore me like this 😂.
Thank you so much. I’m always glad to share 🙌
😂😂😂
I was born in ‘59. I need restoration - ladies first! 😂
❤️💐
@@TheFabrik присоединяюсь к реставрации. Я1961г.
I can't stop thinking about Evelyn Martines during whole restoration process. Its a beautiful tribute to that Lady. 🙏
This was a very fun video to watch. My Aunt Evelyn passed away earlier this year. She had a 1950's regular sized sewing machine in the same color combo. Everyone is fighting over it, yet only one other person ever used it besides my aunt. This is so odd that you restored something like this and are showing it now. It made me smile and thing of her. Thank you.
Oh wow. That’s crazy ! In memory of Evelyn then 😌🙏 Many thanks Tatianna
@@TheFabrik Thank you. She was a truly great and caring person. She was a nurse her whole adult life. She took care of her husband, at home, when he was dying of cancer. She couldn't have children, but was the best aunt to all her nieces and nephews. She also had a wicked sense of humor, and a lead foot.
OMG… that is SO cute! I wish Evelyne could see it now!
A great restoration but your camera and video editing skills are just as impressive. Very well done!
Thank you very much Aaron. Glad you enjoyed 😌🙌
I couldn‘t agree more!
The Stanley Kubrick of restoration videos!

Es usted un artista le ha quedado preciosa qué pena que no esté usted por aquí que tengo yo una que tiene más de cien años y la quedaría cómo nueva😂😂😂 saludos desde Extremadura España
Wow, how lovely to imagine that we get to see the sewing machine through the eyes of Evelyn Martinez perhaps as she opened it on her birthday and planned all the dolls clothes she was going to sew...
Imagine if Evelyn's still alive and her grandchildren show her this restoration.
Я шью одежду и для меня это видео было завораживающим! Вы большой талант! Привет из России, Санкт-Петербург.❤️💐
Я в восторге от волшебного превращения ржавой старой швейной машинки в совершенно новенькую,как будто только с завода.!
А съёмки просто уникальны!
Спасибо большое за Ваш труд,получила большое удовольствие.
Удачи Вам в творчестве.
This brought back great memories from my own childhood and gave me an idea for my crafty grandniece’s Christmas present.
Sand blasting, electrolysis, putty, powder coating.... everything in one restoration 😍😍
Simply awesome work done❤️
Thanks a lot ! Glad you enjoyed 🙌
I wondered what happened at 3:50. So, it was sandblasting. Should have added subtitles, I think.
This is beautiful restoration work and equally beautiful filmmaking. Thank you very much. It was absolutely captivating.
I have a Little Red Sewing machine made of metal ,I've had it since I was 4 years old and it ,works perfect it is now 63 years old.
Oh thank you Paula ! 😌🙏
What a cute little sewing machine, so straightforward too, easy to use, brilliant restoration!
Felt like a movie clip. Editing is beautiful. Cinematography is the most suitable word I think. Doll at the end made it complete.
Thanks a lot. Your comment touches me and encourages me a lot ! 🙏🙏🙏
Wow, I want one of these. You did an amasing job snd I bet in 70 years from now it will still look and work better than todays crappy plastic electric sewing machined❣️❣️❣️
Yo tuve (tengo 70años) una de esas, me la regalaron de niña y cocía ropa de muñecas.
I am frustrated thinking about my life 🥺 but this one gives more hope 🫂🥺❤️❤️❤️... thank you 🌈❣️🙂
Thank you !!! So happy to give you hope 😌🙏
Yet again The Fabric shows what can be done to restore things back to their former glory. Nice one , Mon ami .
Thanks again mon ami for watching and comment !!🙌
The thread is incorrectly started. It is necessary through the tensioner. And so a great restoration!!!
Thank you. Yes many people told me that 🙌 now I know 😌
Delightful! It can give another child a lot of pleasure now.
Full hardworking and talented 👍👍👍👍
Замечательная работа!
Золотые ручки!
Умница!
I love the trains and buses but almost enjoyed this one more. great selection of techniques! Good idea to just drop the wood in the linseed oil instead of using a brush or rag.
Потрясающая работа!!! Золотые руки!🤝👍
Darn it...I knew I shoulda kept my walnut shells... Another great restoration. I never look at old stuff in the same way now!!
🤣 Thanks a lot !
Evelyne ne doit plus être très jeune ;) merci pour la vidéo
Merci ! 🙌
Oh! It not a toy, it actually works... Great job bro💯
Оте шебер, жигит жарайсын 🇰🇿👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
If Evelyne could see this now, she would burst into tears for joy ❤❤❤
Wish I’d kept my toy sewing machine. It was very imilar but no electric and I believe some of it was made of wood. It was quite handy and fun for making doll clothes and things for my toy horses.
Nice work! It’s beautiful.
Absolutely stunning video, your camera work and editing is top notch! 👏👏
Ok l ok be watching these videos, I'm amazed at the finished product and how you remember where all the tiny parts go.
Very nice Restore ready to be used again by a older Child 👍🏆
Oh my goodness, that was wonderful! Such a treat to watch that sweet little machine come back to life. It just looks so lovely now. Thank you for sharing your skills and vision.
Thanks a lot Heather 🙌 Glad you enjoyed 🙏
YOU ARE FANTASTIC!!! THANK YOU FOR SHARING YOUR RENOVATION SILLS!!!
Thank you ! 🙌
Bad ass! I love how it’s not only nice to look at but it’s fully functional and can be passed down for future generations to learn to sew. Awesome job!!!
Thank you ! 🙌 Glad you enjoyed
Like the use of playing cards here lol. This turned out pretty neat and I am sure that some little girl would very much enjoy using this sewing machine for doll clothes. Have a great day
Thank you very much !! 😌🙏
What a wonderful project. Just beautiful
Quelle jolie réalisation ! Bravo pour la création de la pièce manquante. Cette video est un vrai régal et Evelyne serait, je pense, contente de voir sa petite machine "Piq-Bien" reprendre du service... car, en plus, elle MARCHE !!!!
Merci ! J’aurais eu besoin de quelques cours de couture ;)
Ah ! Piq-bien ! J'ai lu "Pig-bien" et pensé, quel marque bizarre !
My older sister has this exact model; it's in perfect shape, as if it's just been taken out of the box.🙂
Woow,,If Evelyne would be alive,, she must be shocked with her machine new look
ちゃんと縫えるの凄い。
分解 ⇒ 清掃・修理 ⇒ 組立 の流れのお陰で、何となくだけどミシンの縫える理屈が解った・・・様な気がする。
Great restoration interesting in all the original parts you kept and repaired stunning every little girls wish her own sewing machine
Thanks a lot ! Glad you enjoyed it !
Vous êtes un Magicien 🧙♂️ ! C’est extraordinaire la faculté de redonner vie à des objets détruits par le temps. Vous remontez le temps ! Bravo Monsieur ! Hats off to you!
Merci beaucoup Véronique !😊 Ca n'est pas de la magie mais beaucoup de travail 😉😉
I'm glad that you restored that properly and professionally, otherwise as ye sew, so shall ye rip... 😉
Золотые руки! Даже не верится,что такое возможно возродить.
You are a rara avis! A real craftsman! I'd buy it in a heartbeat.
That was truly in terrible condition but it looks fantastic now! I am always impressed with how new your projects look after restoration. Thanks for sharing this.
Thanks a lot John 🙌
This is quality! Sewing machines nowadays are plastic and crap! Grad job! looks beautiful!
Thanks a lot 🙌
5:38
it's like that scene in toy story when they wipe out Andy's name on Woody's foot... that broke my heart
This restoration caught my eye. My grandmother had a small machine such as this one, which she passed on to my mother. It was so much fun watching them both when I was little see beautiful clothes for our dolls on it before eventually getting a bigger machine. Thank you for the wonderful flood of memories and beautiful restoration.
Maybe a shower cap over the machine at 8:30 will keep some of that potentially hazardous dust in place.
Beautiful restoration! I would have loved one of these as a kid!
Preferably one that is transparent
There is a cap ;) I put it in place. I just wanted to show that dust... Thank you !!! 🙌
Excellent quality video and restoration
Дружище, отрегулируй станок. Видно даже, что биение идёт, как ты резьбы нарезаешь? Точность - залог успеха. ))
Demás de bella la máquina, será porque yo las adoro a todas las máquinas de coser,esta es bellísima y como estaba acabada,esas manos maravillosas que las arregla, Dios los bendiga 🙏🙋
The cartoon is very excellent and professional, thank you for your accuracy
Thanks to you for watching and commenting 👍
@@TheFabrik 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
VI EL VIDEO ESPERANDO EL FINAL HABER SI FUNCIONABA
EXXXCELENTE TRABAJO 👍
Incrível. Que trabalho sensacional 👏👏👏👏👏 🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷
Absolutely stunning to watch!!! Wow!!
😌🙌
A truly remarkable restoration that stays true to the original and actually makes it even more reliable (nickel plating, screw instead of rivets) for the future. The colours are really great. I really like the powder coating and process that creates such smooth surfaces. Thanks for again for another classic.
Evelyne must had been a rich child to have such a fancy toy, 70 years ago.
I think every little girl learnt how to sew at school... Not sure about that tho....
Your video is great done and the restauration too. I repair old my natique and vintage sewing mashines too and work with them later but i only clean them and bringing them back to working condition for sewing my historical clothes. If I only had your tools...wow! Great job👌
I have good tools but I don't know how to sew historical clothes !😃😃😃 Thanks for watching and commenting 🙌
Es realmente hermoso tu trabajo
Amo las máquinas de coser antiguas 🥰🥰🥰🥰
No music , just great skills and imagination....terrific !
Thanks a lot Fiona. Glad you enjoyed 🙌
Watching this kind of restorations makes me feel a comfortable feelings 😊😊😊
From 1 to 10 i would score this 100.
Detailed, Lovely and Neat work.
Loved watching the sand blasting
Thanks a lot. Glad you enjoy !
Amazing mechanic,
Amazing vedeo maker,
Both are next lever grad.

Thank you ! 🙌
Nicely done. Nice to see the lesser known type of toys being restored, and given a new life.
Makes me want to start on my Fall collection.
Awesome work as all bud. I'm so glad you bought a powder coating machine, it's the way to go, that's for sure. I'd try to add a small motor to this without changing the beautiful piece. This was so cool
Thank you very much, glad you enjoyed. Wow I don’t have the required skills to add an electrical motor but it’s a good idea !!
@@TheFabrik haha yea it probably more difficult than I made it sound haha. And no problem buddy. I really enjoy watching Restoration and you always have the coolest pieces. Old toys and things like this are so interesting.
Quedó súper bella me recuerda mí infancia increíble pero real, muy bien trabajada 👏👏👏👏👏😂👌👍👍👍
J'adore vos vidéos. Merci!

Beautiful sewing machine my mother had the same.
Excellent job. Machine become brand New. Greetings.
This was lovely to watch❤
Me encanta la gran cantidad de equipos que utiliza para obtener este hermoso resultado... espectacular...muchas gracias por compartir...
You had that sewn up. Great video.
I can only think about the happiness this girl might’ve felt when she first got this new. Makes me happy.
Hey its a lock stitch, that's so cool!
Your videos are so amazing and intriguing! So many tiny parts on this one.
Love that you actually powder coat rather than just spray paint 💙
Speechless and mesmerizing
What a fantastic restoration you have done on this old rusty sewing machine. It came out amazingly beautiful. Thanks for sharing. Iook forward to your next one.
Stay safe and have a great week ahead of you. 😀🤗
Many thanks Lisa. I’m glad you liked it😌🙌 Stay safe.
....hermosas....la muñeca y la máquina...!!!...😍!!!...(Argentina)
Beautiful restoration! Omg, all the machines it took to restore this one!
17:55 the thread should run between the tension discs.
17:58 the thread should run under the presser foot & held to the back when starting to sew.
Thank you ! And yes... I missed that point 😕
I like this sewing machine
восхитительно . не единого лишнего движения . результат поразительный .
А какие могут быть "лишние движения" у мастера профессионала? Это его работа, за которую получает деньги.))
You know fabrik I'm going to call you fab for fabulous you are gifted the diversity in your array of different works . Take the train for example once you start getting into 70 to 80 little intriquet parts most can't do what you do your patients is off the charts love all your work thank you for sharing you gifts
Oh wow thank you !!! It’s always a pleasure to share it with you !
Realmente maravilloso!!! Lo felicito.
Vous ne cesserez jamais de me surprendre. Quel beau résultat !
Absolutely amazing.
Отличная работа! Желаю ещё много замечательных проектов!
Que bonita quedó la restauración, aunque era una máquina de juguete que cosas tan bellas y duraderas hacían antes ,cada detalle que restsuran y como lo hacen es espectacular,muy buen trabajo ❤️
