I was always aggravated at how difficult the flywheel was to turn until I figured out that with the pedal completely released the brake is applied which is needed for a machine that sews as fast as these do

Great video Marie. Can you please tell me what the solution is in the ultrasonic cleaner? You said something called purple. Thanks so much. She is beautiful. I have not used GOJO yet on a machine. Maybe one day I will need to. Thanks.

Well that was a treat to watch! You do very detailed work, well done. So that is how they create those pretty colors. Quite a setup you have. An enviable Ingersoll Rand Air Compressor and space to work. I wish I had that studio. The pearl pink is lovely. I would have used a darker decal color though, its very subtle. I wonder if you make your own decals? Gold decals are so lovely. Very nice video and superb machine! Thank you.

Thank you! Very informative video. Laughed when you said excuse your mess. Oh my. We are all way worse than that! I need to learn to make bases.

I’m so glad toy were able to keep the original decals on this one.

I think you're doing just fine.I think the bearing seized up on the motor i'm not sure but that's what it sounds libecause the back of the cap doesn't wanna go any further

What a beautiful restoration job you've done. The way you explained everything as you went along was great. It really does make you realise just how clever and inventive the generation that built these machines and other industrial marvels were we think we're so much more smarter these days but we had their ingenuity as a foundation they had nothing but grit and determination. We owe the industrial inventors much more credit than they are given. Thank you for all your hard work keeping these machines from obsolescence. X

No, I really can't imagine myself doing this work in a factory for hours everyday!

Beautiful

What would be the issue with using Gojo? Why would others object?

I've been watching this in snippets during the day. It's been a fun way of spacing out chores; I finish cleaning or mending something then a break with a cuppa to watch your fiddly struggles and successes. Well done to us both. I even finally replaced the washers in leaky shower and sinks, only been 5 months😅. I'm also ignoring 4 Singers that need heavy TLC, thanks for your videos, I learn a lot and gain motivation. Lastly, if I was a drinking woman I'd play the shots game everytime the cock crows (imagine the hangover!!), instead I occasionally crow back, which made my other half jump today, so double thanks, got to keep em guessing and on their toes 😂

In these parts the world for those decal sets are rather rare, and with the decals in such good condition as that? Unheard of... So lovely to see and hear her sewing so well again too! (It may even be the first time she's sewn this well.) Good rescue, Marie - it was indeed an epic, but worth every minute of watching. I could feel your frustration with that bobbin winder, I always get a sore thumb from that little spring - it's stronger than a team of elephants! :-)

❤

Great find & amazing transformation... She really did clean up well! Thanks for sharing... Great job!

SWEET!!!!!!!! I love love love that decal set

Nice looking machine

I think the need to reach perfection is partly because we are women, and partly because we grew up in an age when mediocre was not considered good enough. Doing a mediocre job was considered not putting effort into the job. I'm the same way. Everything I do, I do my very best at it. Sometimes perfection is achieved, other times not. That's how it goes. Get satisfaction from doing your best, and accepting the result. Love your videos and your work.

I have a Davis I bought from a barn sale about 25 years ago. She sews and looks ok but I'd never considered painting her and making her more enjoyable to work with. This is really cool!!

Beautiful work 😊

You're a good DIY'er 👍

Another awesome job!

Nicely done video :) She is so beautiful... Thank you

this is super cool!

Awesome video those hands Marie absolutely beautiful second chance you're the Best Marie in you tube !!!!!😊

Wow so beautiful good job I have two that need painting

I love that you have a "universal treadle" for testing purposes. She's a beautiful machine Marie!

I really admire your skills and knowledge! Clever lady 👍

I want😢😢😢😂❤❤❤

Beautiful ❤. Great tutorial once again

Holy smokes. What a great reassembly video! Very nice. Very inspirational. Thank you.

This is my favorite sewing machine restoration ever. Pivoting from the lacey theme to the industrial is a huge win!. If fact I like all of your restos. They are such a freshing change from the sea of black machines that all look the same.

Just watched the process while I was packing! You did such a great job, taking her from where she started to the gorgeous piece of art she is now! Thanks for all your hard work on her 🤍

what about if u dont have that machine to get the rust off or a heat gun o do you have to sand them down??? can i use coke instead like the ppop to help get the rust off

I am currently doing my first one now, a 99k. I think I am in over my head on this project. Dont think I will ever do one again.

Dónde puedo conseguir las calcomanías soy de México

Damn! You ALWAYS have the answers I am looking for. Just picked this up for $10!
