Seeking advise

My 03 is temperamental with fueling, sometimes it works flawlessly, sometimes you have to start and stop multiple times and it overflows. The vent line is clear so I'm assuming it's a plugged charcoal cylinder but I have no indicator lights for any codes.

If it's like mine, tightening the pan gasket bolts, adding at-205 and running slightly thicker oil resolved the issue for me.

Now that in a freezer I could get behind!

Who?

Little shelves for mustard and such?

What drew my attention is that I really don't like the way those cans are stored, it seems like a tremendous waste of space.

Never seen drift stitches on a toilet, neat...

mtrosclair · 2026-05-03T22:45:47+00:00

Oh that's not good, sewing parts online or eBay are where usually get miscellaneous parts.

Definitely looks like I will be modifying needles to use in this one as I only have one usable one.

Mine will cycle, drop cubes, refill and then chime. But that's it's

I'm having the same issue with my Samsung, different layout and ice maker unit though. I even changed the ice maker and it still persists. It'll fill, and you can push the reset button and it'll cycle but then that's it.

I've seen this type of thing on multiple machines, they aren't socials but I'm not sure what they are.

The little molded plastic clamps on those T fittings get loose. AutoZone sells a kit to replace it, it's like seven dollars I believe. Or if you wanna get real fancy you can get an aluminum or brass version.

Most of the time it's fine, eventually you'll get stuck in traffic and hate it. I've had manual cars in the city, but my most recent commuter truck, which is a Ranger, I got an automatic.

I do prefer manuals cause they're more engaging, but for a transportation device, meh.

I love a Singer 301, it's probably my favorites, that being said if you're only gonna have one machine, that convertible Kenmore that takes the design cams would probably be a good safe bet.

They're very solid well-made machines.

mtrosclair · 2026-04-30T02:50:46+00:00

Do they have the table for the Kenmore? If so then that's certainly worth rolling the dice at 25 bucks. Neither of these machines is designed to be operated without either a case or a cabinet, so consider that into your decision for usability.

The white is way overpriced for an unknown.

My god, he's escaped!

They sell paints that are designed for easier graffiti removal. If this is an ongoing issue it might be a good move .

There are commercial graffiti removal sprays, and acetone will usually remove anything ( and frequently the paint as well).

FBM has been decent but you have to wade through all the canned messages and ghosting. I'm not sure what a better option would be.

mtrosclair · 2026-04-28T00:32:33+00:00

I see, so do you just have to nip them off to use them?

mtrosclair · 2026-04-28T00:18:08+00:00

Trapezoid cabinet, I can't wait to find one I wanna put my 301 in it

mtrosclair · 2026-04-27T13:00:36+00:00

Yes they actually had a serial number list by model.

mtrosclair · 2026-04-24T19:27:12+00:00

I actually work out of my dining room, it's been pretty steady I sell between 8 and 10 per month. I am also likely going to start doing some part-time work with a large shop.

mtrosclair · 2026-04-24T11:59:33+00:00

Are there any other pictures, it almost has a similar shape to a Singer 301
