@@jaimescraftyworld5513 I had that same machine but it died on me a while back and I couldn't get it repaired :( I loved it ! I didn't mind it being old they seem to be the best :) Thanks for sharing
She gave you a great gift, I have this machine and most of the parts that you have, if you want to sell anything let me know. I am giving my Grandaughter all my sewing machines. I have 3 Great Grand daughters interested in sewing.
Wow, lucky you got one for free, where people keep on trying to sell these for the usual over $400, but I have the previous model #1, serviced mine inside cause it was barely working, bought for a parts or repair price, had to buy most of the main cards myself,...these get thread wound around the thread take up assembly inside which has to be cut and tweezered out, and they require re-servicing inside, ...with lubricants, quality clear sewing machine oil on metal to metal contact points, and synthetic non pretroleum based dialectric silicon grease on a cam lob that has a plastic rider/follower of that lobe, but I went a step further due to my electronics repair experience by using a synthetic motor spindle lubricant on the ends of all the little servo motors and the power motor, synthetic cause it would be non plastic erosive. I've serviced and rebuilt other machines anyway, I like mechanical things and have college degree in industrial tech and automotive and formal military training in electrical and minor electronics repair. The problem with these old machines are corroded connections and dry formerly lubricated areas. I noticed it would be possible to use a program for the later #1+ for converting to the format newer patterns, etc, but wow, its a almost thirty year old design and machine, when there are like newer machines by brother that do alot more alot easier, I feel sorry for all those plunking down bout $500 or more for one of these old machines, and anyway, sometimes old electronics just go and it takes an electronics technician and or spare parts to fix them. I bet you no longer have this machine and sold it off on ebay, unless you keep it around for the massive sewing stitch possibilities, like I reconditioned my #1 for,...hemming jeans I bought cheap but are too long, and repairs of my work and leisure clothes and jackets,.....sadly, I need to read my book on this and I am a basic stitch kind of guy, but own all sorts of sewing machines,..haha, but if I don't use my machine in the next couple of days or next week I'm gonna have to keep washing several times a week my work pants cause i don't have enough left in serviceable condition except for like five pairs of new jeans that are two to four inches too long, youch. I bought an old juki babylock heavy duty serger this year for $10, takes industrial needles like my pfaff 138 6/21 probably does(never used that industrial zig zag even after I unfroze the clutch to the motor that i paid $112 total for the entire machine and table assemblyu),..but that serger needs serviced, barely moves, I get lazy, and that will be a "treat" to ever figure out to use. Which is why I love my husqvarna #1/1200, better and stronger than the brother 50 stitcher someone gave me and I never used, cause the #1 is stronger, better, now it is serviced.....Lucky you, your faceplates don't look like the rubber coating with the printed patterns are cracked frorm rot,..most of mine were, I had to use a trick of acid free book binding heavy clear tape overlayed over the plates to keep them from falling apart, in case you or anyone reading this needs that advice, it works and these machines are getting so old that the faceplate stitch cards have rubber so old alot of them are rotten, which is why I likely have been getting lucky on spare parts for mine at decent prices on ebay....anyway, I am enthused cause I just went through the machine operations, tested my faceplates, and everything is "good",..too bad I have so little sewing experience other than heavy duty stitchings, but I was raised by a wonderful mother who was a master sewer, I used to watch her sew, she would make me clothes, when I was a kid, and she loved Husqvarna viking and elna machines,......errrr, until she got her first electronic machine a viking 415.
I recently received the same gift from my Mom. Since I have been doing research to help me with mine your video popped up here on RUclips. I was wondering for you have made any progress with making your machine work. I am I the same boat as you. I know nothing about this machine. Any help or words of wisdom would be much appreciated.
So sorry I just saw your comment. I can pretty much sew and use features on the machine but all the attachments and extra embroidery cards are all worked by out of date software and computer cords that attach to pc computer that I don't have. But I haven't given up totally and when I get some time off work im.going to try a few more things that I have read in the manual that I have. I'll definitely do a video if anything works because I have about 20 people that have emailed me to share anything that works. Please feel free to email me at Jaimescraftyworld@gmail.com if you would like to be added to the list. Anytime I figure something out I'll email you. Have a great day💙
@@jaimescraftyworld5513 2 years ago I pick this machine up. You have everything to use it you can get virtual windows 98 machine on line. or find an old machine that runs 97 or 98 to run the software There are some free embroidery software that you can create your designs on then transfer to the card. This machine is the bomb. Enjoy it! Good luck.
My sister just passed this exact machine down to me! Please post videos on how to use the embroidery cassettes! 😉☺️
Happy Sunday . thats alot of stuff. have fun. Thanks for sharing.
