Polish polish polish... Sewing machine oil does make the skin soft and brings out the shine in a antique sewing machine! #vintagejonessewingmachine #jonescsfamily #sewingmachinerestoration https://www.instagram.com/p/Cg_llsVqrMA/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

A friend gifted me two family sewing machines that need a bit of TLC... Both very sorry looking machines. First is to remove the cobwebs and dust bunnies... #vintagejonessewingmachine #glamorousjob #antiquesewingmachine #sewingmachinerestoration https://www.instagram.com/p/Cg9FBptjfsZ/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

I've already cleaned this bit a thousand times 🤥 (ok three times!) to get rid of the disintegrating drive belt. Thankfully a nice shiny new belt arrived in the post today ☺️ Still more work to do on the motor. #vintagebrothersewingmachine #sewingmachinerestoration #makedoandmend #vintagesewingmachine https://www.instagram.com/p/CgESPkcjuQZ/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

On the desk is a bit of mid century glamour. Isn't this Brother Sewing machine just so stylish! #sewingmachinerestoration #brothersewingmachine #sewingglamour https://www.instagram.com/p/Cf4sJGqra3t/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

I had a lovely meander roung the @threadfestival at @farnhammaltings today. So many gorgeous things to see. I was clever and set myself a fabric spend limit which I blew at the first exhibitor😳😜🤔🤦 I also picked up this charming Singer attachments box and instruction book. Even better that it was being sold for charity! Only a couple of bits missing but I have them in my stash 🪡 #vintagesinger #antiquesewingmachine #sewingmachinerestoration #vintagesewingmachine https://www.instagram.com/p/CerHqhZDE_I/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

It's polishing time for the metalwork on the #Winselmann #titan. That means stripping it to pieces, cleaning, polishing and trying not to lose bits! Good news is that I solved the mysterious rattle. This old pin had found its way inside the machine! #vintagesewingmachine #restoringsewingmachine #sewingmachinerestoration #buffingup #backtolife @motherspolish @dremel_ea #elbowgrease https://www.instagram.com/p/CdRd0RFN35U/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

I don't know a lot about this cute little Winselmann Titan sewing machine other than it was built in Germany. it's my first Fiddlebase and I love it! #vintagesewingmachine #winselmann #germanengineering #sewingmachinerestoration #1900sewingmachine #handcrank #handcranksewingmachine https://www.instagram.com/p/Cc6JvNnrzF2/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Remember that tool cover that was held together with old sellotape? It's looking a lot better now with some iron on veneer and a touch of @howard_products Restore a Finish. I've also secured the back so hopefully good for a free more years. #fristerandrossmann #1918 #sewingmachinerestoration https://www.instagram.com/p/CcP3Qbaj1vE/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
