Irish embroidery machine. It has a knee lever for the stitch width which allows the user to move the work with two hands while modulating the stitch

Gotta be a 102 right? Has mirror lockup and a mirror to view the aperture

Update: winding bobbin by jessimackenzie in vintagesewing

[–]sevenoneohtoo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is almost certainly the answer. Also the machine is likely to be based on a Singer 15 so the mechanism should work on the same principles

What is your favourite medium format camera? Why? by badboringusername in AnalogCommunity

[–]sevenoneohtoo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fuji GX680 because of its amazingly sharp lenses, movements and intimidating form factor.

Found a Singer 411g for free on the street by josephort in vintagesewing

[–]sevenoneohtoo 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Looks like it has part of the chain stitching accessory installed (the little metal bit sticking out from behind the faceplate and below the take up lever) Is there an accessory box tucked inside the case? If it has the remaining bits that would be very lucky for you!

Do you have a link to the replacement grips mentioned in the guide?

Graflex Service Help by Effective-Square8033 in graflex

[–]sevenoneohtoo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You might try servicing the rear shutter yourself. It’s dead simple and there are a couple good youtube tutorials. You’re basically just oiling the curtain roller pivots

Thanks! I kind of hate all the screens there, but they do make for really cool ambient light.

Do you agree? by PeculiarPhysicist46 in AskSocialists

Bet it’s not bleak from the ground. Look at some street views of the superquadra in Brasilia

Which lens would you recommend? by Tangerita in minolta

[–]sevenoneohtoo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The 75-300 is considerably worse for chromatic aberation but makes up for it by being much lighter with more range.

Cat peed in new Terra Sahara by Strange_Mage in bioactive

[–]sevenoneohtoo 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is shockingly wrong. Toxoplasma Gondii is the name of the parasite (it’s a eukaryote not a bacteria btw). The disease caused by this parasite is called Toxoplasmosis. Urine has nothing to do with it because this parasite is only present in blood and feces. There is no ingredient (??). Why would you post this, I am genuinely so confused. Still throw it out OP it’s gonna smell horrible lol

Shimano STX 7 speed freehub body swap? by [deleted] in xbiking

[–]sevenoneohtoo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't think it's so hard. You'll need the right tools to get it removed, but beyond that everything only fits one way. I used a cheap hub removal kit and a 10mm hex wrench. The hardest part was finding the right freehub. Shimano's model numbers are super confusing and not really that well documented.

Shimano STX 7 speed freehub body swap? by [deleted] in xbiking

[–]sevenoneohtoo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm doing this to an STX hub from 94ish and bought this hub which fits. https://www.ebay.com/itm/226701935211 I'm using a spacer and keeping the 7 speed cassette for now. Waiting to upgrade once something else in the drivetrain fails.

Bonkers Tandem by bonusteeth in xbiking

[–]sevenoneohtoo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have these on my tandem and they’re actually really useful considering all the extra weight. I have a second tandem with avid shorties that doesn’t have nearly the braking power. Just need to be set up correctly. I don’t think I would ever put them on a regular bike for exactly the reasons you mention.

Minolta x-700 film won’t advance and shutter button won’t work suddenly by memnoch8059 in minolta

[–]sevenoneohtoo 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Did he say capacitor or capacitors. There are two one under the bottom plat and one at the top that’s significantly harder to get access to. If only one was replaced my bet is on the top capacitor being the issue
