Anywhere to take broken sewing machine?

Recommended Posts

Hi all, I've recently picked up a very old singer sewing machine. I don't have the best of knowledge of sewing machines but after hours of trying, I still can't get it to work 100% (mainly problems with thread tension).


Does anyone know a local place I could take the machine to see about getting it fixed? It's very heavy!


Thanks so much!

Thread tension could well be more to do with your bobbin? Once bobbin is loaded with thread you should be able to hold up the bobbin by the thread without it rolling down. If the bobbin spirals downwards you need to tighten the wee screw on the bobbin case until it holds. Good luck!

    • Kam was with us last week to wallpaper a bedroom. He was a pleasure to deal with and did a fantastic job - very neat and matched the tricky pattern very well. Would certainly use again. 
    • What a bunch of pieholes. 2025 and you peasants have nothing to be grateful for. I have been inside the library recently and honestly the old girl is crying for a facelift, the goddamn carpet looks like it survived the world war and some. The Library is one of the oldest in Southwark and you are crying about a study place? What a bunch of bullshit. You have libraries all around you for your kids to go their studying you rotten sausage. How about be happy that the library is going to look absolutely stunning rather than be a whining bitch about it   Also, I have been told that the staffs have to work in the smaller libraries together. How do you think they feel? 
    • I would like to recommend Aaron, who has just finished 5 days plastering work in my house. He is professional , polite, tidy, punctual and reliable. He did a fantastic job, a good price and a top quality finish. Highly recommended! Aaron Manser 07773 410661
    • Sadly, but not unreasonably, councils find it difficult to justify such expenditure on their current budgets. My family, which does like fireworks have been enjoying the displays by those still with disposable wealth by viewing them from Hilly Fields. Other hills (Dawson Heights) are available. For children who have autumn and winter birthdays, a firework display is some consolation for their birthday climate. My grandchildren, being summer babies, can enjoy garden parties and picnics. Without the need for explosions and dazzling display.
