Straight Stitching Functions - Singer 700 Series Sewing Machine
The Singer 700 series sewing machines have a number of capabilities when it comes to straight stitching.
These include the standard abilities of a machine of this era but also temporary stitching such as fast basting and chain stitching.
Out of the four models I own, the 760 is the only model that supports fast basting.
Basic thread tension is covered and how to identify incorrectly set tension.
There's a straight stitching presser foot and throat plate for delicate fabrics.
Some other basic functions are covered such as raising the presser foot even further to accommodate thick work and using the edge guides on the plates.
There's also many other things that can be performed when straight stitching, such as binding and hemming.
The 700 series Singers are precision made in Germany and are beautiful and very functional, not to mention easy to use.

SINGE
singer-81k73-industrial-serger
In the last video of this machine, I found the top knife clamp retaining screw was stripped.
In this video, I show that I have found a replacement screw and go through setting the blade and testing it.
This finishes off the service of the machine head and it is now ready to mount to a table with a motor when we find a suitable candidate.

JANOM
janome-combi-2-in-1-sewing-machine
This is the very versatile 2 in 1 sewing machine and serger /overlocker combo - Janome Combi. This machine has a common issue where it's starting to seize up.
This video covers the Janome Combi and the Combi 10.
In this video I track down the issue and go through some troubleshooting procedures.
This video also shows how to detach the serger / overlocker section from the main machine body.
I cover general service of the machine, along with looking at the drive belts, clutches and more.
This is part one of a two part series.
Part two is coming soon and it shows how to mate the serger and the sewing machines.
