You can load them here - by just answering your own question - upload image. I would love to see it and know what the tech told you - how you got him to work with you - is amazing to me.

You can load each picture - one after the other - the same prompt will come up - and you just do it again - the will number themselves - you just put the description of each photo in your answer box.

Well done, you remind me of my nan, she would have had a go too, I'm too scared of mucking it up to even try. You are so lucky to have the tech you do, I can't even find one nearby to take my machines to.

I'm so proud of you....men aren't the only ones who can do repair. I haven't had my embroidery machine apart but I used to take my old machine apart once in a while. The lint really does accumulate in there. And I tackled my dishwasher once and fixed it. Thanks for sharing the photos. GOOD JOB!

So proud of you! Wish I was as brave! Maybe Husqvarna should hire you! I bet you'd clean those things a lot cheaper than the repairmen do!! No wonder we all delay taking in our machines...it costs a week's retirement wage to have them serviced!
1 comment
Wow i really don't know the cost i have never payed it. The Singer repair man helped me with whatever problem (right in front of me) so i learned by watching!!
