@@user-hk9xl9yg7m crap that sucks! I highly recommend taking it to a shop with professionals, however, if you’re super bored you can use tiny little needle nose, pliers to try to bend it back straight. I don’t recommend it, though cause you could break the whole thing.

@@davidsilos7241 given the fact that I have as much mechanical engineering skills as a chipmunk that has been run over by a truck, if I could figure this out you can. I recommend there’s a couple other videos that really show the details better and I found out that I didn’t need to 3-D print a gasket. You can buy gasket material and just cut it out with scissors or something. I wish you luck!

@@merubapodara I hope you enjoy it!

@@shamseaktar well that’s a super nice thing to say thank you! And I wish I had the experience to know what each of the 32 feet does in that kit lol. I’m a beginner in just about every craft that I’m interested in. Jack of all trades master of none unfortunately.

@@kraftaculousgreekgodofcraf1113 its always good to be jack of all trades and you dont know who you will be teaching a thing or two while you go along (like me). But i'm on a similar thing, trying to learn and better myself at sewing. Any good content on youtube always helps. Thank you! Stay blessed.

@@alltagszauber thank you for watching! It seems this is a common problem with this model. Unfortunately, I haven’t found a solution. One option is if you have an electrician friend or go to a repair shop, they should be able to lengthen the cord, but you have to do it right, of course to prevent any fire hazards, and I’m not an electrician. I don’t have this machine anymore as it was not my favorite so I sold it. But I distinctly remember the pedal barely reach the floor. I don’t know Singer trying to save a few dollars by making the cord shorter? Other than that maybe email an online supply like sewing parts online and asking them if they sell a third-party pedal that has a longer cable? Sorry, I don’t have a definite answer for you.

@@kraftaculousgreekgodofcraf1113 thanks a lot for your helpful answer! so its not just my machine. i try that and maybe contact some singer channel, maybe feedback helps at least future buyers?

@@alltagszauber can’t hurt! And maybe if they have a Facebook group

@@kraftaculousgreekgodofcraf1113 thats a great idea, i will tri! !

@@sherrywilliams1131 of course I’m no expert, I think the general rule is if you sew a lot at least once a year you should have your machine serviced? But I don’t see why if you do a simple clean in between projects, the lint that accumulates in the bobbin area and under the bobbin case and maybe inside the head where the take up arm is? I feel like your machine can run for over a year or two without needing a deep clean, but that’s just my big old guess 😬

@@grandmajane2593 😂 surprisingly, it worked like a champ and I sold it

Demons!

@@kraftaculousgreekgodofcraf1113 - Great! Good job.

@@MarcyStuart - You may be right!

You’re welcome! ☺️

🙏☺️

I’m so sorry you watched the whole thing 😅

I would imagine that would save a lot of time

I tried to open that end door on my machine because I could see the fuzzies in there, but I never could get it open. I have to take it to the shop soon.

@@grandmajane2593 I feel like a good cleaning, solves most problems with sewing machines

Great job! So satisfying to be able to repair your own machine!

😂.

Hopefully one day I settle on just a few machines for myself that are.. 1. Sew amazing and more importantly, 2. Are easy to take apart and maintain.

You home repair guys need to start a habit of designating a special little dish to hold all the screws, gaskets, nuts, etc. ---- good advice from grandma!

Ooooo good info! Thank you!

I did that. It's quite devious

Means a lot to me, thank you! 🙏

It’s a good machine!

😂… who .. summons .. me… (use genie from Aladdin’s voice lol)…. I’m sorry about your bobbin. My very limited knowledge of Bobbin problems is if it’s a metal bobbin after many uses, the metal can actually kinda wear away at the plastic bobbin housing which would mean you would need to replace the whole bobbin housing. However, if you are bored and take apart your bobbin area and look around to see if there are any needle hits maybe the needle punctured a little bit of the plastic area sometimes you need to sand that down with sandpaper and try to make glass smooth again and also the bottom part the bottom part. Or see if you need to tighten the bobbin housing screw thingy … I’m no help at all am I… welp, Going back into the kingdom now to slumber😂

I do not have experience changing blades out or sharpening them on a serger. On regular sewing machines, if you can open up the “head” area housing the side thread cutting blade, you can remove it with pliers from the inside. I imagine it would be a matter of ordering more blades for that machine. 🙂 Thanks for watching!

Thanks for watching one of my earliest videos. There’s so many things wrong with the video lol not that I’ve gotten that much better ha ha

Thank you for watching! I’m glad it helped someone. 🙂

Thank you I learned a lot and then forgot all of it 😂

@@kraftaculousgreekgodofcraf1113 🤪

I was lucky i figured out how to put anything back where i found it.. 😅… I learned a lot disassembling everything, thank you for the info!

I feel like maybe machines built not to be oiled had a long lasting oil that doesn’t need oil put on top and ruin it or something? But what do you do if lint and fuzz obviously is stuck in the oily parts, or it’s been longer than the oil could handle and it’s hardened or gummed up? If I find a machine that needs some lovin’, I remove any sticky or gummed up oil / grease and clean and then anything that moves or slides against metal on metal or plastic gets grease and oil… 🙂 I’m sorry I didn’t do a thorough video. I don’t have the machine anymore, but if you are adventurous enough to get at least one side off or the bottom, basically anything that moves or slides against each other I would oil it and if it looks like there’s gears rotating into other gears maybe put fresh grease on those , and clean them

😂I didn’t know they were changeable for the longest time!

Yeah, I forgot about barbecue Lighter fluid. For me everything just seems like it’s gotten really expensive so i’ve been using what I have around the house … for the stickers using the heat gun was the cheapest for me and then a little rubbing alcohol. Sometimes I use a little WD-40 for glue residue.

Hey, great to hear from you again! Thank you for sharing the information about your sewing machine oil!

It means a lot to me if my videos actually help out someone. 🙂 That being said, I’ve heard a lot of reviews saying the “heavy duty“ is just a name Singer is adding and people that are trying to sew heavy jeans or heavy material are not 100% happy, but then you would have to upgrade to an industrial machine or a vintage all metal machine which are many hundreds of dollars if not $1000 or more. For a beginner machine, I don’t see why this isn’t a good start.

Probably both 😆

That’s good to know, in 1990 they opened up a factory in Thailand. I’m not sure which machines are produced there.

I swear I tried every logical combination, but yeah, that makes sense. Thank you.

That’s awesome! Post a video of it let us see! I believe I bought the cheapest possible Chinese laser cutter with no filtering or enclosed case and it’s been sitting in the shipping box for over a year cause I’m afraid to even set it up lol

Yeah, it was a little clunky. I wouldn’t even know how to begin to fix that. However, the machine worked perfectly for a long while on some projects, and then I just sold it

If you only knew how happy it makes me that my terrible videos actually help someone… Thank you. I’m glad there was something in the video that helped you out. 🙂

Thank you! I actually had sold that one and then I stumbled across another one and forgot how incredibly strong they are as just sewing machines. I’m repairing it. I was thinking about doing a video but I don’t really do a lot of videos anymore. 😬 thank you for watching.

😆. I hope you got the right one. The one I found was just a smidge too thick even though it fit I worry about it even though the communicator has been working just fine since this video. I guess there’s a specific one that is the exact same size, but I never found it. Someone may have commented about it. I hope you get off Vulcan before some alternate universe Romulan blows it up.

Well, I think that’s just wonderful! 🙂

I’m sorry, I sold this machine along time ago. I should’ve recorded how to take it apart. 😔

Apologies I don’t really do much with my channel. I look back at these videos and I realize they’re not very good lol, but if you got something from the video that helped you, that actually makes me happy

That’s awesome! Yes in Switzerland and in the 1990s added a factory in Thailand.

@@kraftaculousgreekgodofcraf1113 I think all Bernina branded machines are still made in Switzerland. The Bernette models are made in their strictly monitored foreign factories. Not positive. Since Basic, non-electronic Berninas never break, I have only had the one I bought in the late 1990's. Nearly impossible to find used.

I wish my channel was big enough that you would have a large group of people to answer your question lol. I’m definitely not selling mine because now that it works I’m super happy but definitely check Facebook marketplace or offer up. Those are good places for used gear.

Sorry it took me so long to figure this out. There is a maintenance menu! While the designer one is on you hold down the reverse button and the second from the bottom foot sensor button. This will be the first place that someone tells you which button that actually is, lol. When you get into the service menu, under sensors, there is another menu button. Press that to get into the sensors menu. You can turn on and off sensors. Now I don’t have a thread sensor problem, but there is an option to turn off the thread sensor, which it looks like mine is actually turned off, so maybe that’s why I don’t have a problem ha ha. Play with the maintenance menu at your own risk!

I wasn’t actually sure what would fix it specifically, which is why I did everything I could think of. Definitely taking apart and cleaning the carburetor also, cleaning the spark arrestor and changing out the spark plug and new filter, remove old oil added new oil and checking the debris catcher under the gas line. Mine actually needed a new battery as well.

But when you first installed the new battery, it still wouldn’t fire up, it just did the cranking and cranking like my. So it must have been what you did after that….. lol but you did everything so we could not eliminate what exactly was the problem. 😅

@@shauchiou9785 end it has been a while since I did this video but now I remember, after the new battery yes, it was chugging like yours was trying to start the red light that was coming on is a notification that there was not enough oil. This generator if it doesn’t have perfectly filled oil, it will not let you start it so that would be the first thing to check But yeah if it hasn’t been serviced in a while, the carburetor might need cleaning and a new spark plug couldn’t hurt, right?

@@shauchiou9785 i’ll be honest you can’t sit through 13 minutes of a painfully long video? Lol, yeah I had to watch my video again to remind myself that it wasn’t starting because the low oil light was coming on. The replacement oil is 12 ounces and the generator needs 18 1/2 ounces.

Carb clean is more than likely what worked. Along with cleaning the debris catch ​@kraftaculousgreekgodofcraf1113

I completely forgot about turning the handle backwards. Thank you! I need to get some more kerosene to. 😊

c'est super! content que ma vidéo ait aidé !

😆 I really need to get back to this channel 😬

lol. I get bored sometimes. These videos help. :)
