Quick fix, Pre-Tensioner on a Vintage Kenmore Machine

It came in pieces and left in peace. A quick video where we figure out how to assemble a pre-tensioner for a Vintage Computerized Kenmore sewing machine. Thanks Melanie for the encouragement!

Your videos are invaluable to those of us who would like to learn this trade. S.M.R. courses cost an arm and a leg. So I'm trying to watch as much repair related video as possible as I'm on a limited income. Keep 'em coming. God bless and Happy Holidays!🙏🎄🎉
P.S. Ya done good here. Tip for the future. Use a screwdriver with a magnetic tip to hold, and start, screws. Very handy when you only have two hands.👍

I was missing your videos too. It's fascinating to see these machines get fixed, see inside at their works, and the whole process. It's interesting to all of us who are here! I hope life is going okay and the holidays are going well.

Finding bits and bobs for the vintage and antique machines, sometimes you have to make do. I think I need to pick up a box of springs to have on hand. =D
Thanks for sharing this one!
