I buy, collect, refurbish and sell vintage sewing machines. Pre 1970s all metal machines are my favorite. I've developed a love for these mechanical creations of industrial art. I also love meeting the people who use them. Creative designers, artisans and craftspersons who are able to make things with these marvels. Don't forget to view the videos of the machines in action.4KProducerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04562473824498599468noreply@blogger.comBlogger24125tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8227975996815319807.post-11439808313753001382012-12-09T16:22:00.002-08:002012-12-09T16:22:21.184-08:00Threading a Pfaff 335 Cylinder Arm MachineHere's how to thread a Pfaff 335 cylinder arm sewing machine. <br />

A Swiss-made marvel of engineering. Self-contained motor, free arm, embroidery stitches and all-metal construction are just a few of it's great qualities.<br />

<br />
This example has been refurbished and everything works well. Near mint condition means no noticeable marks or dings.<br />
<br />
This wonderful Bernina 730 was sold locally and will be cherished by it's new owner who will get a big surprise when she sees it. Shhhhh, don't tell anyone, it's her anniversary surprise...<br />

As I mention before in the "Dial a Stitch" post below, before the advent of built-in embroidery mechanisms, sewing machine manufacturers developed a series of drop-in cams that would allow precise embroidery stitching. Each cam would provide you with a unique stitch.<br />

</tbody></table>
By 1952 Elna, a Swiss sewing machine manufacturer, developed a cute green machine that would rival all others in the embroidery cam business. The Elna Supermatic.<br />
<br />
This 1957 ad campaign boldly asserted the ease of making an embroidered blouse, by implying it was as easy as boiling an egg.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

The great thing about the Elna-discs and machines were their ability to sew backwards, thereby giving the egg boiling capable woman the ability to make beautiful embroidery patterns not possible with all the other machines that could only sew embroidery forward.<br />
<br />
The Pfaff 360/362 as well as many other sewing machines of the 1960s were not capable of sewing embroidery stitches that required sewing in reverse direction.<br />
<br />
Click on the image at the bottom of this post to see the amazing amount of fancy stitches available for the Elna machines.<br />
<br />
See if you can tell which ones are forward only and which ones go forward and backward.<br />
<br />
To be honest I have had bad luck with the older green Supermatics. Motor failures on more than one unit scared me off.<br />

Don't be disappointed though, I'm sure there are sound working examples out there. I can tell you I have had great luck with Elna's later models like the SU (1972). </div>

Advanced design and reliability; this is what I hear from other sewing machine enthusiasts. Below is the Elna SU I had about a year ago - she worked flawlessly and was one of the smoothest running machines I've had. Same cams as the old 1957 Supermatic, go figure...</div>

Indeed, this is an industrial Bernina 850 with the Chandler logo.<br />
<br />
This is truly a wonderful sewing machine. Bernina's may be the best sewing machines ever made - Swiss precision as well as a high price tag.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://dl.dropbox.com/u/6222552/chandler/chandler1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="359" src="http://dl.dropbox.com/u/6222552/chandler/chandler1.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
I also have a Bernina 730 Record - what a joy to sew with.<br />
<br />
This particular machine was not working when I got it. Too many years sitting around in a humid environment, then some inexperienced would-be buyer tried to make it work and forced it, thereby jamming it and making things worse. I bought it not knowing if I could get it going again. I tried my best to make it sew before I purchased it, but could not. Risky business getting a Bernina that doesn't work - parts aren't as easy to come-by, and they're a little on the expensive side.<br />
<br />
It took some work and some parts to get her back to life.<br />
<br />
Lesson? If you find a sewing machine that is gummed up from sitting around for years - don't force it!! Use a solvent to release the old dried up lubricant. I know better - I use penetrating oil and heat to free all the moving parts before I try to make the machine work.<br />
<br />
She is back to her old glory and working great - I have the Service Manual and was able to get her up to tip-top shape - she is for sale locally:<br />

I cry a lot. Hey, it happens, grown men cry.<br />
<br />
Skipped stitches occur when the hook does not grab the needle thread. After the needle penetrates the material and reaches its lowest point it moves back up - approximately 2mm from bottom the thread makes a small loop in the scarf of the needle. This is where the hook snatches the needle thread and loops it around the bobbin thread.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjbjHZJiepof1Yn6TF5wF0J6CsWZdIkhIV_8pNxv58nUDxlDr9rpKFKJ_DABU8euHh97ekVs5Cj7pHjZBkvWs9lDIbvGl2RtceYwKFFnsl0FIujRaXLpmHw2ade2SMAeByAOY6H316p_Jw/s1600/Lockstitch.gif" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjbjHZJiepof1Yn6TF5wF0J6CsWZdIkhIV_8pNxv58nUDxlDr9rpKFKJ_DABU8euHh97ekVs5Cj7pHjZBkvWs9lDIbvGl2RtceYwKFFnsl0FIujRaXLpmHw2ade2SMAeByAOY6H316p_Jw/s1600/Lockstitch.gif" /></a></div>
This animated gif demonstrates this pretty well. So what are the possible causes of skipped stitches?<br />
<br />
Bent needle.<br />
<br />
Needle not inserted correctly.<br />
<br />
Wrong adjustment: needle rise, hook clearance, height.<br />
<br />
Needle loop not fully formed (thread too elastic or too taut, thread check spring stroke too long, needle plate bent, pressure on presser bar not high enough.<br />
<br />
Needle is being deflected by presser foot.<br />
<br />
Needle bar is bent.<br />
<br />
If you can think of any other thing that can cause skipping stitches please let me know and I'll update this list.<br />
<br />
Maybe I won't cry as much...4KProducerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04562473824498599468noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8227975996815319807.post-14162591526924562942012-03-22T20:47:00.001-07:002012-03-22T20:54:00.840-07:00Needle & Thread Size Compatibility Chart<br />

It varies a lot - some want to know where to get needles or bobbin cases and others want to know where to get big items like servo motors and table tops.<br />
<br />
I depend on two sources for most of my stuff. Nick-O Sewing Machine Co. for all the big stuff. Motors, table tops, legs with casters. He also sells refurbished industrials as well as new heavy duty industrial sewing machines. Click on the banner below and you'll get to the website. BTW - he also has an eBay store: <a href="http://stores.ebay.com/Nick-O-Sewing-Machine-Company">http://stores.ebay.com/Nick-O-Sewing-Machine-Company</a><br />

If I'm looking for a rare or hard to find part - like say a Bernina 317 bobbin case, or a slack thread regulator and screw for an old Singer 20U33 or how about a stitch length control knob assembly for an old brown Pfaff 335 - I go to Rudy at <a href="http://cutsewservice.com/" target="_blank">cutsewservice.com </a> I have purchased all kinds of parts from Rudy. The Pfaff 145 in this blog was refurbished with parts from Cut Sew Service. Talk to Rudy, tell him I sent you: <a href="mailto:Rudy@cutsewservice.com">Rudy@cutsewservice.com</a><br />

As far as needles and bobbins I usually search eBay - search by system or brand or even your machine model. As most of you already know - if eBay doesn't have it it probably doesn't exist.4KProducerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04562473824498599468noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8227975996815319807.post-21601271493704760412012-03-14T16:16:00.001-07:002012-03-22T17:35:25.291-07:00Pfaff 260<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="-webkit-text-decorations-in-effect: none;">This model was the next to the last version of the "Dial-A-Stitch" machines from Pfaff. They streamlined the </span>design by getting rid of the cumbersome stitch width dial. They combined the left-right needle position knob with the stitch width dial and added a momentary zig-zag lever. The forward-reverse lever was also improved by adding a spring loaded reverse. They added smaller increments to the stitch length dial to facilitate the selection of embroidery stitches. The Pfaff 260-360 and subsequent Pfaff 262-362 were much better machines than the earlier generation of the "Dial-A-Stitch" like the 230 or 330. See post on Pfaff "Dial-A-Stitch" Sewing Machines below.</div>

Engineered for reliability and precision. This Bernina 317 is an industrial machine that produces a very beautiful straight stitch and will also make precise zig-zags and includes reverse stitching.<br />

I modify these Necchi's so they can work even harder then normal - all steel construction allows for a tougher than nails sewing machine. The heavy hand wheel and double pulley system gives this machine incredible punching power - she can eat through multiple layers of leather for breakfast - no problemo. These Italian wonders are bullet-proof.<br />
<br />
This classic machine now belongs to a very talented young artist from The Parish Trust, she uses it to sew leather bags and such. If you are in San Francisco you can't miss this wonderful store.

This is one of the most popular sail-repair sewing machines you'll find. Small in size but very powerful and with a zig zag stitch. This Pfaff 130 was meticulously cleaned and polished to mint condition.<br />

I even found some gold paste to refurbish the zig zag knob. These sewing machines are very popular, I've seen some for as much as $600 and not as good looking as this one, I might add.<br />
<br />
These are truly indestructible so if you find one that doesn't look to trashy get it, they clean-up well and work as strong as an industrial machine, but much smaller.

The Pfaff 332 is an all metal cylinder bed machine with flat bed attachment and built-in embroidery stitches, as well as straight and zig-zag.<br />

<br />
Before the advent of built-in embroidery, sewing machines had multiple cams that would be installed to sew any number of different stitches. Each cam would give you access to a different embroidery stitch.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
The Pfaff 332 came with a built-in cam system they called "Dial-A-Stitch" which meant you didn't have to carry any more cams. Just turn the appropriate knob or dial in the right combination and you had access to a multitude of embroidery stitches.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiaqAFNuy4LaeLCGHvsmAdEBPcMPwJciqVyIVaLe_p0F_sngcXU1kHudWa28zKZGSVFMdcy977oaLDjzSVujrdnFOsO8Tl2lb3cU1lob9zueC5yBrR1n_hPQjlRwbPsj_Gbke4CW0kM-Mg/s1600/pfaff332.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: black;"><img border="0" height="358" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiaqAFNuy4LaeLCGHvsmAdEBPcMPwJciqVyIVaLe_p0F_sngcXU1kHudWa28zKZGSVFMdcy977oaLDjzSVujrdnFOsO8Tl2lb3cU1lob9zueC5yBrR1n_hPQjlRwbPsj_Gbke4CW0kM-Mg/s640/pfaff332.JPG" width="640" /></span></a></div>
<br />
It was quite a complicated set of knob and dial positions. Pfaff devised a wheel computer that would enable the user to pick an embroidery stitch and determine the corresponding dial setting.<br />

<br />
These Pfaff 332 and similar sewing machines always remind me of old Navy battleships, tough and unsinkable.<br />
<br />
If you run across one of these, the most common issue is a gummed-up cam system. Old oil residue in the cam system needs to be cleaned out carefully so as not to damage the delicate cam mechanism.<br />

<div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgCf7VC_8NAFgrIvIBRZuBcUi5lCvlh7NuCzcBJ_29yqqYkPIjYWSZLMY-qeHEb-YH5C8m28j3eSThiTUV7JNjut88xWQ122gbHrrq2p4DMCkut34m-OvouHZ9u8XYE3tmWoLBW72L3cas/s1600/kitchen+1940s.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="302" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgCf7VC_8NAFgrIvIBRZuBcUi5lCvlh7NuCzcBJ_29yqqYkPIjYWSZLMY-qeHEb-YH5C8m28j3eSThiTUV7JNjut88xWQ122gbHrrq2p4DMCkut34m-OvouHZ9u8XYE3tmWoLBW72L3cas/s400/kitchen+1940s.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
<div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">I asked Nina to write a couple of words to describe the drawing:</span></div>
<div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">This pen/ink and wash drawing was created in 1980 to illustrate two poems I'd written about my childhood memories in the early 1940's in New York City. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">As a child I often visited the crowded apartment of Haydee and Orencio Miras and their children with my uncle. There was always a big pot of food on the stove in the kitchen, near the sewing machine where Haydee's elderly mother stitched. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">In the living room adults played guitars and sang, while we kids played among the piles of coats on the bed in the bedroom. The sewing machine was the hearth and heart of that wonderful home. </span><br />
Nina's book of poems is available as an <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Heart-Songs-Suite-ebook/dp/B006LSG932" target="_blank">ebook</a> on <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Heart-Songs-Suite-ebook/dp/B006LSG932" target="_blank">amazon.com</a><br />

I love these cobbler machines. This Adler 30-70 is the last model made by Dürkopp Adler in Germany. Other manufacturers make patchers based on the older Singer 29 cobbler machine.<br />
<br />
Below is a Singer 29K I restored with a great local artist -<br />

These machines have been made for over a hundred years with very little change. Like someone once said "...if it's not broken, don't fix it." (see my other blog post on the <a href="http://ucansew2.blogspot.com/2011/11/adler-30-1-demo.html">Adler 30-1</a>)<br />

Singer's often copied, walking foot sewing machine. Every industrial sewing machine manufacturer has made a version of this machine. They all have that unusual bump you see on the neck.<br />
<br />
When I purchased this Singer 111W155 it was all out of timing and needed some serious cleaning. You can tell by the lost paint that this machine had been used through the years.<br />
<br />
These are indestructible sewing machines. Connect it to a motor and it will sew through a steel wall - OK, maybe not steel. Leather, on the other hand, is easily conquered.<br />
<br />
I went through and adjusted this one according to the factory specs, and replaced the bobbin case with a new one. She now runs smooth. No excessive play or wear.<br />
<br />
Newer machines have reverse but their prices are quite a bit higher. I've been told by an old-time user of upholstery sewing machines that reverse is overrated. I suppose the convenience of not having to flip the material around to backstitch is worth something.<br />

It sews fantastic stitches and wide zigs and zags. It also came with a cool vintage wooden table and an unusually controllable clutch motor.<br />
<br />
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg5569nYt3gQ4Xec4A-P2B3F3g2ccxKNzbZ56Vb8-TZxxqZxVUn7oMWbZnvQ3fLHPronHbh5wSO0R8hkUsNr7ox7aMYTn2xy9xIJM-DTEfgZ7b2HcSdmZM0lVKVuPdbosGlE1iytQ0twTE/s1600/DSC03249.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="358" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg5569nYt3gQ4Xec4A-P2B3F3g2ccxKNzbZ56Vb8-TZxxqZxVUn7oMWbZnvQ3fLHPronHbh5wSO0R8hkUsNr7ox7aMYTn2xy9xIJM-DTEfgZ7b2HcSdmZM0lVKVuPdbosGlE1iytQ0twTE/s640/DSC03249.JPG" width="640" /></a>This baby had been sitting for years in a warehouse collecting dust. The safety clutch on the roller unit was gummed-up and it was preventing the roller from working properly. I am amazed this Singer was still working in spite of her age. I was able to free all the gummed-up parts and she came back to life with a vengeance.<br />
<br />
This machine produces one of the best looking straight stitches I've seen, and one of the largest zig zags. I put her up on craigslist and soon she was sold to a local clothing designer. I'm so happy this machine is now owned by a wonderful young artist here in San Francisco.<br />
<br />
Again - I love it when nice people get my machines - I'm confident this machine went to the right person - she knows what she got and will make great use of it. She'll probably pass this Singer 107W1 on to her grandchildren many years from now. After all, this is her first industrial.<br />

This is a refurbished Pfaff 145 H3 walking foot machine. This Pfaff was repainted before I got it, but it was in need of extensive mechanical work.<br />

<br />
The timing was 90 or more degrees off and the hook was worn to a nub. I replaced the hook assembly, and adjusted the timing and all parameters to factory specs.<br />

The Pfaff 145 H3 is a very popular upholstery machine. You won't find anything better than a properly adjusted mechanically sound Pfaff 145.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
The newer Pfaff 545 has a bigger bobbin and the current model 1245 is basically the same mechanically.<br />
<br />
If you find one make sure it has been gone-over and checked for wear and excessive play, and make sure the hook is still good and timed correctly.<br />
<br />
The Pfaff 145 won't let you down, it will sew through numerous layers of leather as well as vinyl or just about anything you through at it.<br />
<br />
This wonderful Pfaff 145 now works on any number of items made by Jack Knife Outfitters. <br />
<br />
BTW - I got the servo motor for this machine from Nick-O-Sew. NKS-5500.</div>

A cobbler's machine. Anyone remember what a cobbler is? Have you ever had your shoes repaired? Don't people just buy new shoes when their old ones die?<br />
<br />
This beautiful machine was built in the mid thirties in Germany. Adler is the German word for eagle; and this machine is as beautiful as the bird of prey.<br />
<br />
Having the long cylinder arm allows the user access into the deepest part of a riding boot. The foot also rotates to allow repairs where most sewing machine dare not go - actually places they cannot go.<br />
<br />
Also check out my post on the Adler 30-70 for sale on eBay, I might add:<br />

These are prized by many, and considered by owners the best sewing machines ever made - sorry, I wouldn't go that far.<br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">These Italian masterpieces are very tough though, and I love modifying BU Mira's with double pulleys and selling them to Sailors. This is my third modification, I'm working on two more that should be up for sale soon.</span><br />

The new owner had his sailing friend buy it from me and sail it down to Mexico for him to have on his sailboat.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">I guess you never know when you might need to repair your sails. If you're in the middle of the Pacific Ocean and your sail rips wouldn't you want to have your own Necchi Bu Mira hidden away below decks.</span><br />

The roller foot allows you to twist and turn in crazy ways. If you know what your doing you can make beautiful designs with rolling stitches.<br />
<br />
This one is unusually shiny and beautiful. I'm sure she was taken care of by her previous owners.<br />

This Stradivaro sewing machine marks the beginning of Japanese domination of post WWII manufacturing.<br />

I haven't been able to find much information on this beauty, in fact, I've only seen one other Strad selling on eBay since I purchased this one over a year ago.<br />
<br />
I've ben told they were made by Toyota, although this one has no markings to indicate this is true. Toyota did manufacture sewing machines that sold well in the US.<br />
<br />
Remember the old 1960s Toyota Corollas? Didn't they look like big sewing machines? They were as cheap as a sewing machine though, and small as a sewing machine.<br />
<br />
Actually this two-tone machine reminds me of the American cars of days gone by. The "futuristic" control knobs and the pearl and metallic paint, all reminiscent of the opulence of big gas-guzzling American automobiles of the 50s.<br />
<br />
Japanese brand and model names of the time were supposed to sound non-Japanese. Stradivaro - what is it? Italian? Definitely not Japanese.<br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">You are looking at a rare, powerful, reliable Adler 87. It will easily sew through any type of fabric, straight stitch, zig-zag, and reverse. With the appropriate needle and thread combination your fabric choices are infinite.</span><br />
<br />
Needles for this machine have been obsolete for years and are no longer made (System 1932) After extensive research I have found replacement needles that come in most sizes. (16x257, 1738, DBxF2) These needles have brought renewed life to this sturdy vintage machine.</div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">This machine has been refurbished. I have sewn very sturdy material with it. Small, but </span>heavy. This Adler 87 is very similar in size and function to a Pfaff 130, but rarer.</span><br />
<br />
German engineering at it's best. This machine doesn't quit. This is another wonderful vintage machine for which there isn't much info on the internet. It took me a long time searching and asking other collectors to finally find a replacement needle system for this one. I hope someone reading this will benefit from this info.</div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">What a wonderful machine, it zig-zags and has reverse. Smooth and reliable - if you can find one in good shape don't hesitate to get it. Prices can range between $300-$700 for just the head. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">It is not as tough as a walking foot machine, but it will perform better than a household model like the classic Pfaff 130. Less suited for upholstery, but great for sewing clothing. These are also prized by sailmakers.</span><br />
<br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">This was stored for years in a warehouse gathering dust, rust and guming-up from old dried-up oil residue. It took some </span>love and elbow grease to bring it back from disrepair.<br />
