Expert Profile: Terry

Expertise: I Answer Sewing Machine Repair Guidence & Tip Questions Only. I DO NOT ANSWER "Value", or "How To Alter", or "Sewing" Related Questions...period. I can help on Singer`s 700, 600 series Touch & Sew`s, 400 & 500 Slant-O-Matic`s, and most older model Singers. Feather Weight`s (221 series), 15-91, 201 etc. I worked for Singer for 10 years, had my own repair business for another 10 years. Other makes entertained, but would rather stick to Singers of the older vintage. If you machine is newer than 1992, please do not ask me, as I am not up to speed on machines after that era. You might try the web site I have, to see if I do offer any advice there, but the focus in on those listed above. Feel free to visit my site: http://www.tandtrepair.com Kind Regards - Terry
