I have my Momma’s. She was given this machine in 1950 when she graduated High School. I’ve seen with this machine since I was 5. I’ve thrown away several Brothers. They cannot hold a candle to this fantastic machine.

Absolutely flawless ‘how to’ video. Perfect. Thank you!!!

Thank you so much!! I received my grandmother’s old model 66-16 recently and I finished restoring it today and realized I had no idea how to actually thread it 🤦🏻‍♀️This video saved me so much time!

Thank you very much for your video. It has helped me tread my Singer Treadle sewing machine... a have watched it several times over the years and I am finally getting to the point where I can thread it from memory Thank you again Mark

I'm so thankful for this video, because it is the only sowing machine I've had available to me while making masks for my family. The sowing machine was passed to me from my grandmother and I really love it and am thankful that I can continue using it (with the help of this video).

So glad you made this video. I haven threaded any machine for 20 years and I just got a beautiful 1919 model 66.

I just rescued a Model 66 (1950) from a Thrift shop, and this video was exactly what I needed! Thanks!

I have this Singer, with a portable case and knee treadle. It was my Grandma's and I believe she bought it in 1935 or 1936 to make baby clothes for my Mom when she was born. Haven't used it in years and had forgotten the exact threading. This video is fantastic! What a great help! Thank you!

I have this same machine a coworker gave me from her parents who had to have assisted living. She was in an attic for many years and was a mess. I cleaned her up, took her to a repair shop and works great now. This video helped a lot because I couldn't remember how to thread the bobbin. I would so rather have a vintage machine over a new one any day. They don't make them like this anymore. Thanks for your help.

Uhhhh thank you sooo Soo much for making this video I just inherited my machine form a the sweetest old lady and I'm 18 so I had no clue how to use it . This video I kid you not save me I was looking all over the place to find out how to use this and your vedio was exactly what I needed !!! Your an angle 😫😁😁💘💝💞

I used to have one of these mounted on a box. My mother gave it to me, she used it when she was young and I used it for years sewing cloths for my kids. I would put it on a card table or TV tray to sew. My kids knocked it over one day and bent the main shaft which made it unrepairable. This past weekend I found one enclosed in a small fold out table like yours. It looks pristine! I’m so excited to have another one. Thanks for reminding me how to thread it. I’m in my 60s now and will cherish it and pass it on.

I greatly appreciate your help with my sewing machine ❤. You were straight to the point. I love that. God bless you and yours .

My wife got me a Model 66 for Christmas. This video was just what I needed.

Ugh thank you! This video helped me with the bobbin. I was all “WHAT am I doing wrong!?” Then I saw what you did and when I tried what you did it worked 100% thank you!!

Very clear Liked the various angle shots! I started sewing with my first Singer 66 in 1974. Great for Frostline kits. Backpacks jackets and tents. I just acquired my second Singer 66 last week I rescued it from a neighbor who set it out in the alley for trash

I'm just starting to learn to use my great grandmother's 1910 Singer Model 66. I love your videos !! Most helpful !!

Thank you so very much! I got my Singer tuned and cleaned but couldn't remember how to thread it. You are detailed and easy to follow. Thank you once again.

Thank you so much. Our power went out here during the thunderstorms. So I am attempting to use my manual machine. Now. I just have to find out how to replace the bobbin

Thank you!I just got my vintage Singer

Helped TREMENDOUSLY

I'm fixing up a 66 crank, thistle decal Singer for my granddaughter, and your video is so clear and well-done that I'm sure she'll be able to thread it. She uses my computerized machines with speed control and push-button start and stop, doesn't quite manage the pedal (she's 7). She will be able to use this video to thread up her 66 with no problem with you very clear and to-the point video. THANK YOU!

Thanks so much. This just helped me because I just acquired a type of this machine recently and I have been struggling to thread it.

Great video! Very clear instructions.

Thank you so much just got my machine today I'm so excited to use it 😊

I have a different model but it was close enough. This video gave me exactly what I needed to know to properly thread the machine and the bobbin. Thank you!

Merci beaucoup, votre vidéo m à beaucoup aidé a régler ma machine antique singer, votre vidéo est bien détaillée, merci encore.

I spent so much time trying to find the model number and ended up just searching for how to thread a vintage singer machine, and this is the exact model I have (down to being the exact same table), so this video has helped in two ways for me

I have a 1927 66 treadle. Your videos are so helpful. Thanks ❤

I e watched several of these and yours was perfectly clear. Great job! I don’t often comment but I had to on this one!

What a great video!! I love how clearly you explain it and use terms to describe the parts of the machine. Thank you so much!

Thank you for making that easy

If I could give you one thousand thumbs up, I would! Thank you so much! My husband's mom gave me the antique Singer; It has all the additional presser feet with it. I would like to see a tutorial on how to maintain antique machines, how to change out the presser feet, and how to change the needle. Thank you so much!

Thank you so much! Directions were perfect, clear and concise. Super helpful. I'm looking for more about this sewing machine from you!

Awesome video! Quick and to the point! GOD BLESS! Thank you!

i just got one of those machines in a cabinet and now i know how to thread it thanks for the info simple and easy to understand

Sounds like an electric sewing machine. Thanks for the demonstration. Appreciate it very much. I just opened up the antique sewing machine that belonged to my grandmother and will check to see if it works. This will help me, if it does indeed work.

Just acquired one of these... so many projects I wonder if I'll ever learn to sew, in obsessed with these machines!

Great fast guide! The operator's manual at singer doesn't have great photos so your video makes up for that. THANKS!

Excellent video. It did the trick. My 66 now runs like a Cadillac! Nice kitty cat by the way.

I found one in the garbage A treadle machine. Wood is trashed but the machine seems perfect except I’m missing the bobbin cover and thread tensioner, both easy to find and inexpensive. Thanks for the video it helped me verify I wasn’t missing anything else.

Thank you ao mych I needed this for my school

Thanks I am resurrecting an old 66 and was unsure how to thread it. I like the music too!

I have this same model, made in 1928. You can search year of manufacture with the serial number. Thanks for the great videos!

I just inherited my grandmother's # 66 treadle and would like if you could do a tutorial on how to put on the belt, how to clean machine, and how to oil machine. Thanks so much for this useful info.

Just what I needed, thanks for the fast and easy lesson!

Thanks for posting this! I just bought one of these that's been converted to electric with a cabinet to learn with. So far, I think the only thing I'm missing is the pressure foot plate.

Very good thanks

Easy and to the point

Many thanks for your informative video.

It really helped me get my singer 66 threaded and running. Thanks

Your video helped a ton

Well done video!

Thank you for this video. I finally tried out the sewing machine that came with my Victorian house and it works!

so very helpful. thanks.

Perfect. Thank you.

Thanks I have inherited one and mum said this would be that hardest part

Seems to run very nice! Thank You for the video on how to thread it!

Ugh! Thank you! This is soooo helpful!!

Thanks for your help

I appreciate the close-up of the tensioner. I had to take mine apart to clean it and could not figure out how to put it together correctly.

This video was just what I needed thanks

Omg this helped me so much

Thank you so much!

Have a hand crank one of these thanks for the example of threading will look for the bobbin filling next 😎👍🇦🇺

Well done, good viideo, you make it look so easy.

Thank you so much!!

Thank you, love your cat.

Thanks for this! I'm using a Bel Air 600 but was having trouble finding a good up close video of how to thread it. Read that they were more or less copies of the Singer 66 and were threaded the same.

Oh wow! I am so glad I found you! We just put my grandmother's Model 66 in service, and your videos are so clear! My 8 year old daughter and I are learning to sew together and we are have started by using her grandmother's much more modern Singer 6136. But this old machine is so beautiful. . .anyway. Do the current Singer needles work for the Model 66. It is skipping stitches, and it seems likely that the needle is dull. Thank you!

Very helpful

Just what I needed Thank you

Quick & easy help! Thank you!

I occasionally use a machine I inherited from my mom and an don't think I ever knew the proper way to thread it, I've been doing it wrong! thank you

Thank you for your helpful video, cute cat 💕

Looove this vid!

Obrigada pelo vídeo, ajudou muito. ❤❤❤

Thank you

Thank you so much...i forgot how to do it, cause i use more than one machine

Yeah I do believe that this treadle machine is what I have

Gracias excelente explicación acabó de comprar una máquina y no tenía ni idea como funciona

Thank you so much I love the video

Thank you very this really helped. But I am still struggling to pick the bobbin thread. When the upper thread is just going around the bobbin. Please help

Amazing video thank you. Xo

Thank you *

Ahhh I recently got one of these, thank you so much. I'm not much of a sewer or anything but I figured it'd he a great skill to learn. Thanks so much for this video, it helped me a ton :^]

Great video. It was a BIG help!

Ty very much..

Very helpful thank you!

Thank you love your videos xxx

Ty

Great video!

Great quality video, really to understand and high quality VT. Thank you :-)

whenever i try to sew with mine, the thread comes out of the needle and does not sew into the fabric. is there a reason for this?

I have a machine like this mine is a treadle. Could you please tell me what Manual goes with it your threading is identical to mine.

Can you do a tension tutorial/troubleshooting the stitch? My bobbin thread bunches, sometimes my top thread breaks off. I know you aren’t supposed to touch the bobbin tension, but I have to adjust my tension pretty high, and still not thrilled with the stitch. Just having bad luck in that regard with my 66.

I have a 201 and a 66 but not sure how to insert the needle in the 66 as the flat part on the needle goes to the left on the 201

How do you adjust the tension on this machine ? Thank you

So happy I watched this, now I know I was threading it right to left and that was wrong.

Very helpful, thanks!

At 1:27 the bobbin is feeding out the front hole at 1:47 it's coming from the back hole. What sorcery is this?
