Sewing Machine Restoration

There are many video clips on YouTube that show the restoration of sewing machines, mostly simple sewing machines that are most often falsely found in canals, garbage, scrap metal... These restorations are usually shown in one video of about 30 minutes.

Since this example of my sewing machine is much more complicated

I had to put it in 3 videos, the first video is disassembly, the second video is washing, cleaning and polishing and the third video is assembly.

So if you are interested in some of that, look below, the specific model of the sewing machine is the Bernina 530 Record from 1962. 

Thanks for watching and sharing ☺

Sewing Machine Hook Timing | Rotary Hook Sewing Machine Timing

The instructions below are intended for setting the time on sewing machine models, it's a whole series of vintage Pfaff sewing machines, I have to list them all: Pfaff 1222, Pfaff 1221, Pfaff 1214, Pfaff 1213, Pfaff 1212, Pfaff 1211, Pfaff 1199, Pfaff 1197, Pfaff 1196... 

Likewise, this instruction can be applied to most sewing machines that have a rotating hook, everything is very similar, the specified special tools are not mandatory and especially necessary, the specified measures are also not "sacred letter" and you can slightly deviate from them.
