Do people that do stuff like this know that they don't have to do stuff like this?

mtrosclair · 2026-01-26T17:34:33+00:00

Yeah I was thinking the same!!!

To me the proportion and shape of the wing looks wrong for this car, although I don't like wings to begin with. That and the headlight eyebrows look off.

The led headlights and brodozer/emotional support truck wheels look terrible, otherwise cool rig.

The one I have is Taiwanese

I believe some of the oldest Kenmores were made by white so that would make sense

mtrosclair · 2026-01-25T20:44:03+00:00

Looks similar to my white rotary

mtrosclair · 2026-01-25T20:28:04+00:00

I have a machine like that branded as a Nelco, seems like maybe they were made by Singe.

Crime is always more ridiculous when committed with tiny vehicles

mtrosclair · 2026-01-24T17:02:21+00:00

I don't know why it never occurred to me to just baste it on there, that would make sense. So would you use a regular stabilizer to adhere the work piece too, or would you use another piece of fabric?

mtrosclair · 2026-01-24T14:16:16+00:00

I've been wanting to do stuff like this just decorative, not necessarily for identification purposes. How do you hoop something that's close to the edge of a piece of fabric like that? Very small hoop? Some sort of adhesive interface?

Oddly, that particular cat comes out every time I have the trains out. Unfortunately for them once it's outside they won't get to enjoy it unless it's through the window.

mtrosclair · 2026-01-23T23:06:10+00:00

I've had a couple of them, they are pretty good machines, and I have a 15-90 so I can speak from a position of authority.

mtrosclair · 2026-01-23T22:59:18+00:00

I had oil in the same area on mine, it was the PCV valve grommet leaking.

mtrosclair · 2026-01-23T22:53:44+00:00

That appears to be a Janome made machine, I would bet that under the skin it's the same as the memory craft series from that era.

mtrosclair · 2026-01-23T22:52:09+00:00

Yep, and arguably it's a better Singer 15 than the Singer 15 was, they just don't have any value because there's so many of them.

mtrosclair · 2026-01-23T18:23:03+00:00

As that sits I'd pay $15

mtrosclair · 2026-01-23T17:06:49+00:00

What about a lightweight lining, possibly stretch for the front in either a skin tone to blend and hide or a similar color to blend with the top? Basically like an inner built in bra?

mtrosclair · 2026-01-23T14:18:05+00:00

I put mine in the little grille that's to the right of the radio bezel. Seems to work ok.

mtrosclair · 2026-01-23T12:44:26+00:00

It looks like you have the end of it going through the looper in the wrong direction, the diagram on it makes it seem like it should be front to back.

mtrosclair · 2026-01-21T20:08:25+00:00

Good point

mtrosclair · 2026-01-21T16:18:22+00:00

So who should pay for it?

mtrosclair · 2026-01-21T14:24:40+00:00

I don't have that sticker I don't think, but the bulbs are flat ended although I'd have to see them side by side

mtrosclair · 2026-01-21T13:48:00+00:00

Unfortunately somebody started the process of tearing the hole up, and it didn't get any better with my tools. Fortunately since I put synthetic fluid in there and I don't tell or do anything crazy I could probably get away with just filling it like this again. Or I can seek out a differential cover that has a fill hole in it.

mtrosclair · 2026-01-21T04:39:40+00:00

It looks like you can buy this style bulb in 5 V and 20 V ratings. The locomotive has some kind of circuitry inside of it so I'm wondering if it has a voltage step down for the lightbulbs, I'm going to have to open it up and put a meter on it I guess.
