I’m coming over for a coffee ☕️ and chat soon. Love the framed pics.
@@lenoralynnbell1859 me and your hubby already planed a trip .
Not any better here in Maine waiting for another snow storm tomorrow night
Your further north then I am , you can have it lol , we got more coming as well ...
The weather socks here as well😢😢❤
Is their a episode 11 on the first camper you was working on. Watched the first 10
Um there was , i tore it down and bought this one , i have a R.I.P video on it , it was going to be too much for me to rebuild ...
Haymister thrifty looks good and sounds great
Thanks its coming along , only thing slowing me down is weather now ..stay tuned for more progress ....i appreciate you watching and commenting...
Really like how you incorporated the trailer paperwork throughout the camper. Very cool
Gotta keep some of the soul from the original interior and it makes for interesting reading when people come visit
@ 100% agree
Wow 😮 you haven't spent nearly as much as i thought you did😂...a very smart shopper.350 for the camper?OMG😊😊😊😊😊❤
I dont make much money so i can only afford a few hundred here and there so i need to be patient and smart , good thing im handy lol , im thinking ill be close to 4 grand by the time im done but it will be all new so still cheeper then the wrecks i see people asking 4 grand for , just need the weather to get warm then i can focus on the exterior...take xare and talk to ya later ..
At least on the 66 this finish is really elegant.
Everyone loves the red eye , but id rather have a godzilla 66 if i got to choose , only seen one come up on the market near me but never got to buy it , the search continues........thanks or wqtching
@@4486xxdawson Where are you located?
I have a 185 and would trade in a heartbeat for a Godzilla 99. I have (3) 66-18s as well. One is setup on a treadle and I use the other. The third is a Centennial model I want to restore. I had a mint shuttle one, too, but let that one go as I am partial to the 66 drop-in bobbins.
I dont see the godzilla too often so if you see one grab it up , maybe you will get lucky and get a 66...keep me posted ..
@@4486xxdawson I have (3) 66-18s with the Godzilla finish. I am inclined to keep 2, one with a motor and one that is in a treadle table.
i have both machines and are great i am not making a choice i am keeping both
Does this machine have reverse?
Yes it does have reverse , just like a 15-91 ....
I'm very passionate about these machine's wish I can find one....
Marketplace is filled with them , local thrift stores usually have them as well , there are tons of them out there maybe even a family member might own one still , ask around im sure someone you know must have one you might get for free , i got a few given to me just by putting an ad on marketplace saying looking for old unwanted sewing machines and got some donated ...they are out there just need to do some foot work and you will find one ....thanks for watching and i hope you find what your looking for ......
It's art ❤
🎄🎶 Let it sew, let it sew, let it sew 🎵 Love it! Your mini machines are adorable additions to your collection. It appears that you had a nice holiday 😊
I did have a good holiday , even better now that you stopped by to see my toys ...thanks for watching and commenting, always appreciate your comments.....
Nice machine, beautiful stitching. Happy new year Dawson 🎉 May the new year be kind to you and your family 😊
Happy new year to you as well , hope all the best for you and your family this year , we could use a good one since the last few have been crap lol at least wegot each other lol take care my friend
Thank you . What a beautiful machine. I have a 15-91 from 1948. I love her.
Great machines , the 15-91 was very popular for a good reason , tuff and indestructible, i hope the people who own this machine love it as much as we do ,,,it is a beauty..
Happy New Year Dawson. 🎉🌟🎆🎊 Thanks for the video on this Singer 115. I have an electric Singer Class 15 with the RAF decals (as they are referred to). I don't know which specific Class 15 model mine is, made in Kilbowie UK, in the 1950s. I saw a video once about this design of decal and why they are referred to as RAF design, and there seems no clear explanation for this reference. The video poster suggested that the design actually brings to mind the image of radio waves and this really does seem to be a valid interpretation of what the decals represent. Anyhow. Enough jibber jabber from me. 😏. Enjoyed your video as always. All the best Dawson from Australia 🦘🇦🇺
P.s. happy new year🎉🎉🎉😂😂
HAPPPY NEWWWW YEARS too you as well ...take care
Beautiful ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I hope I can get mine looking as great as yours, and working well too - thanks for showing how!
You keep talking about the bobbin but it seems like you really mean the bobbin case. It is very confusing and I cannot tell what you are talking about.
I have one that I can not find anything on hope you can help the # W71490 i can't find a needle info.
I am sure it takes a while to film this.
Wow! The camper is looking awesome! Merry Christmas!
Thank you!
Merry Christmas to you as well and thanks for compliment i appreciate that .
Beauties!! Merry Christmas!
Merry Christmas to you as well
Camper looks fantastic! Merry Christmas
Thanks little closer every day , cant wait till spring to finish the exterior , for now focus on the interior....Merry Christmas to you and the family as well , missed ya on Saturday but will be there for the next ....take care Rob and make sure Curly gets treated real nice this Christmas , he put alot of time in at work this year and made you look good ......
@@4486xxdawson Curly Claus has no problems for Christmas
I absolutely LOVE both of these machines. My granny had both of them and they would sew through anything. I don’t care how thick your denim was. They could sew right over it. I’d give anything to have a machine like one of these.
Tons still on the market , i found these on the side of the road , if its vintage and old i will save it , havent got one yet i couldn't fix , i agree the tuffest machines are the oldest machines, if your looking just check marketplace , you will be able to sew for less then 50 bucks and on the best quality machines made , todays plastic are just toys , good luck and thanks for watching
They are cute!
Yes , yes they are ..and getting them to work is the best part for me ...
Merry Christmas Dawson. Your caravan is looking fantastic. Such a massive amount of dedication, commitment and hard work. The carpentry is next level perfection. My dad was a carpenter and in retirement build a wonderful boat. Your little toy sewing machines are just gorgeous 😊 Love and best wishes from Australia. Your videos are so heartwarming and enjoy them very much. God bless 🙏 🎄🌟🇦🇺❣️
Well thank you very much , your words are a great gift fof Christmas thank you, carpentry is my favorite thing to do and when its for me i take all the time it needs not what i need, quality only happens when you care enough to do your best , sounds like your dad built a dream and i can relate to that , im happy you enjoyed the machines and the video, it was fun to bring the sewing machines and camper together in one video , ill show more when its done , getting closer every day....well thats enough jibber jabber for now take carw my friend, hope to talk again soon ....
Awesome little machines! And the camper!!!0MG😮 merry christmas ❤
Thanks im glad you enjoyed them , i like the little pink machine and knowing it never sewed since new and i got it working makes it more fun . Im also happy you like the camper , got lots to do still but with winter here i will just keep pecking away at the inside till spring , happy holidays to you as well take care anc talm to you again soon ..
Its almost christmas day!❤
I've sewn on both. For what it's worth, here are my thoughts. Yes, the 201 produces an ever so slightly better stitch. A 10/10 for the 201 and a 9.95/10 for the 15-91 **when in proper adjustment, clean and lubricated**. In terms of speed, when I need speed, I use one of my Singer Industrial machines. In terms of difficult synthetics, denim (especially hemming), running a button hole machine, decorative zig-zagger, walking foot for super-slippery fabric or, most of all, free-motion - the 15-91 produces the same perfection without choking and the 201 has challenges. In the end, my 401A and my 15-91 are my daily drivers. The 401A for that 10/10 perfect top stitching, the 15-91 for virtually indistinguishably stitch quality for everything else. Ironically, the 'Spartan' offers all the stitch quality of the 201 with nearly the power of the 15-91.
I like the 15 91 for sewing patches on my leather vest, its like the tractor of singers , got the strength and easy to work on , plus more of them on the market still so parts easy to find, as for the 401 i never used mine much just tuned it and sold , not really a sewing person just like working on them and the feel of them , its like nothing you can buy today ..,,thanks for watching and hope to hear from ya again soon...
@@4486xxdawson Thank you for your reply! The interesting thing about the 15-91 is that the combination of power and the "who cares, whateves, I'm going to make a perfect lockstitch" robustness of that oscillating hook let's me sew super filmy silk and other slippery fabrics with a vintage walking foot with a perfect stitch just as easily as I can hem a pair of jeans in the same thickness as the factory original. The 401A was very close to the end of real Singer quality. The hook drive gears are not only hobbed, but paired and polished together as a pair for each single machine to produce the smoothest work possible. The stitches are every bit as perfect as the 201 and you have all the versatility of a workhorse decorative zig-zag machine. I'd never get rid of either.

Thank you and welcome to Dawson's Tinker Shack...
Only on appearances I think the look of the Singer is more fun and bubbly, but the Necchi is dressed up and very stylish.
Have you seen my video where i found a Necchi bu with the wonder wheel in a thrift store ? thats a beutiful machine ,
That is cute😂 haven't seen that one😊
Thanks , i seen it come up on the market and thought you might like it , hope you stop by Christmas eve to see it run a stitch, oh and see what Santa bought me ..i cant wait to open it , take care ......
@4486xxdawson ill be there christmas eve😇🦋
Sorry, music is too hard core for a sewing machine challenge, haha.
Sorry , i will make sure to check my levels for future videos , thnk you for you input , much appreciated
I needed this since I'm needing to clean my 115 face plate.Ive been dreading it.some good info😊😊thanks
Oh you got a 115 too , nice . This one is pretty dirty and the paint is crackling, probably has never been loved , way overdue for a deep clean id say ..happy i helped , thanks for watching always enjoy your comments...
I like the Canadian HQ
That makes one of us lol ...snow over it all now , finally got the white stuff but cant complain , would be nice to have white Christmas this year ...
@@4486xxdawson It is getting below freezing here today and tomorrow but then back up to 50
International delivery?
For you why not ...
@@4486xxdawson Fairs fair
P.s. I think marie at promethean sewing machines has an extra 115 bobbin case.
Thanks for the information . I will check and see how much it will cost .
Missed a spot
Hard to find good help
At 1:28 I had a flash back to that bucket of ice 😆
I love the 115
Me too
I've never seen those decals in the flesh
I think the 115 is the only machine to have them , like the 66 red eye , and if im correct i remember you saying the 115 wasn't available in your area, would make sense considering the low production numbers ,probably only sold in USA and Canada, i do believe mine was a Quebec made machine but not confirmed....
Is it a 15? Its dark.
You will see shortly
is the bobbin plate interchangeable as well?
Yes the 99 and the 192 and the 66 all use the same needle plate and bobbin cover , i used a 99 cover on my 66 . Thanks for watching and commenting...
You got all the connections now 😂
Good find ..I need a new heat gun😢😊
Ill see what i can do ...
A bargain!
Wow you've gotten a lot done!! I'm almost ready to move in!!😂 ❤
At this point i pretty much live in it already , thats why im doing the upholstery last lol , good thing there are 2 beds......
@4486xxdawson LOL😁👩🌾
