The highly anticipated National 9/11 Memorial opens this Sunday on the tenth anniversary of the September 11 attacks. Designed by architect Michael Arad and landscape architect Peter Walker, the memorial consists of a peaceful tree-filled plaza and two reflecting pools in the exact places where the towers once stood -- a beautiful place of remembrance for the lives that were lost. Arad's design is the product of an international design competition, which produced more than 5,000 possible designs. Here, we take a look at the seven other finalists, each of which created a peaceful and inspiring memorial.
Each of the memorial designs pays tribute to the lives lost on September 11. In Norman Lee and Michael Lewis' design, "Votives in Suspension," that tribute is paid through glowing votive lights, one for each person who died that day. The lanterns hang above reflecting pools in two sanctuaries located in the footprints of the Twin Towers. The lights are suspended at different heights, which vary by each victim's age. The cables are actually capillaries that would channel liquid fuel into the votives to keep the lights permanently aglow. The ground on top of the sanctuaries would be devoted to a public green space, with the only indication of the sanctuaries being long, parapet walls. Inside, "the sanctuaries' monolithic expanses will invite contemplation and suggest absence."
A symbol of our cumulative strength, "Passages of Light: Memorial Cloud" consists of 10,000 vertical conduits that use each other to support the structure. The translucent parts create the "cloud" of the memorial, designed by bbc art + architecture. The top of the cloud is street level, which reconnects the fabric of downtown and allows visitors to traverse the sight. Beneath the cloud is a shrouded space for reflection where 2,982 circles of light are embedded into the floor. Each circle illuminates the engraved name of a victim and projects light upward toward the cloud. BBC's goal for the design was to "elicit two more responses, one highly physical, the other imaginative, both of awe. One recovers a sensation associated with the World Trade Center Towers when we recall standing in their presence: the urge to look skywards, a vertical gesture associated with hope. With the second gesture we seek to give expression to a relation between those we mourn and those who live on affected by the tragedy and repercussions of the attacks."
For his proposal "Inversion of Light," Toshio Sasaki created a place not only to remember September 11, but to inspire us, reaffirm our respect for human life, and bring about an end to ignorance and hatred. The ground level park incorporates the universal elements of light, water, air, and earth. The park itself represents renewal, while an underground memorial space houses the unidentified remains and pays tribute to each victim. The victims' names are etched on a glass wall, behind which a gentle waterfall constantly flows. Sasaki calls the design "a living memorial." "Dedicated to world peace, it will ensure that future generations never forget this great tragedy."
While the winning design has two sunken reflecting pools, "Suspending Memory" creates almost this exact opposite, with two floating memorial gardens rising from where the Twin Towers stood. Designed by Joseph Karadin with Hsin-Yi Wu, "Suspending Memory" gives each victim's family the chance to tell their loved one's story. "Each victim is manifested as a symbol of strength, a single column helping support one of two island gardens," write the designers. "As the columns extend through the garden surface at varied heights they transform from concrete into glass. Each unique glass column is a timeline of a victim's defining moments." The whole of Ground Zero is covered by a "Pool of Tears," forever memorializing the site's hallowed ground.

September 9, 2011 at 11:14 amBlame Giuliani for this one. Nothing would have been a better tribute than a small memorial overshadowed by the grand, new buildings rising from the sites, full of life and commerce and everything that was evil to the monsters who knocked down the towers. Instead, we have two black pits left in the ground, carrying water down into nothingness.

DiverseWorks' State Fair offers alternative to art fairs
Published 5:45 pm, Wednesday, September 7, 2011
With two contemporary art fairs making their Houston debuts - one hits the George R. Brown Convention Center next week, the other in late October - leave it to DiverseWorks to provide sly commentary on the upcoming spectacles with one of its own.
"We don't go to art fairs," says Diane Barber, outgoing visual arts curator and co-executive director. "We don't spend money to have a presence at those because of the nature of the work that we do."
Still, like many local nonprofits, DiverseWorks is acting as a "cultural partner" to both fairs, meaning it's promoting the Houston Fine Art Fair (Sept. 15-18) and Texas Contemporary (Oct. 20-23) to its members and will have a presence at both events.
But with State Fair, Barber's last exhibit before she pursues independent projects, it's also using its own space to poke a little fun at - and provide a distinctive alternative to - the commercialism of both fairs. Various Houston artists have created - and at times will inhabit - booths ranging from Josh Urban Davis' John Stuart Mill Is Dead Pawn Shop (where ideas are always/never free) to Stephanie Saint Sanchez's Kitty Loco's Ded Celeb Candle Toss Across
"Picture walking into the carnival midway at the rodeo at dusk, with all the things competing for your attention in that kind of sensory overload," Barber says, adding that she's organized the 16 booths into such carnival-esque categories as "psychics, mystics and fortune tellers," "sideshows," "natural wonders" and "tasty delights."
Proposals she accepted include Michael Crowder's replica of "a natural history museum's butterfly collecting exhibit, but with the twist that these butterflies are made of unbelievably fragile-looking glass" and Kia Neill's faux geological excavation and souvenir shop. Neill plans to hawk fictional artifacts, posters, slides and postcards of an imaginary geological site, Collapsed Grotto
The artists will inhabit their booths during Friday night's opening and two "market days" coinciding with the art fairs.
(Neill promises her "persona will be a combination between a geologist and Lady Gaga, with outlandish attire such as rhinestone eyelashes, bedazzled work belt, head lamps and magnifying goggles.")
Barber says she loved every minute of her "remarkable ride" at DiverseWorks but is eager to work on projects outside of an institutional setting.
After State Fair, much of her attention will be consumed by the Independent Arts Collaborative, a group of nonprofits working to raise an estimated $22 million to build a community arts complex on the Midtown block bounded by Francis, Travis, Holman and Main.
An IAC board member, Barber hopes the group will find an architect soon. She also hopes it won't wait until construction starts to begin programming the site - now a parking lot - and developing ties to the surrounding community.
"I've got a million and one ideas about how to utilize that physical space," she says.

Lot 5: Jennifer Bartlett, Series III, Set 3, Enamels on Steel, 1972
667: Post-War & Contemporary Art
by Auctionata US
October 27, 2016
New York, NY, USA
Live AuctionJennifer Losch Bartlett (1941) Please Register/Login to access your Invaluable Alerts
Two steelplates with baked enamel and silkscreen grids
Jennifer Bartlett (b. 1941) – highly geometric American artist
Titled and numbered on verso
Provenance: Best Products Co., Inc., Richmond, VA
Total dimensions: 12 x 24 in; 30.5 x 61 cm
Very good condition
Bartlett's enameled steel plates from the 1970s are considered some of the artist's most original and important works. Her visual shorthand of colored dots and grids employed to render abstracted landscapes that straddle the line between Minimalism and Conceptualism caused a huge stir in the 1970s New York art scene and remain her most inventive works. These early enamels very rarely appear at auction.
Jennifer Bartlett (b. 1941)
The artist born in California studied at Mills College in Oakland until 1963 and then at Yale University School of Art and Architecture in New Haven, where she got her Bachelor of Fine Arts in 1964, and her Master's degree in 1965. Influenced by Sol LeWitt, she worked strictly geometric first, but turned in the course of her long career to her environment as image subject. She explores systematically the color and shape possibilities of the painterly depiction. Often she creates space-filling installations. As a painting surface for her paintings serve steel, wood or canvas. Jennifer Bartlett's work are shown since the early 1980s in solo and group exhibitions in major international museums. The artist lives and works in New York.
In very good condition. Minor surface wear commensurate with age, including one diagonal scuff in the upper right plate corner, recto; minor scuffing verso.
Shipping costs excl. statutory VAT and plus 2,5% (+VAT) shipping insurance.

Newcomerstown is a village in Tuscarawas County, Ohio, United States, 85 miles (137 km) east-northeast of Columbus. In the late 1770s, this was the largest Lenape village on the Tuscarawas River, with 700 residents. Chief Newcomer (Netawatwes) was the leader of the western Lenape here, and they called the village Gekelmukpechunk. Early French traders and English settlers named the village Newcomerstown after the chief. Soon after the start of the American Revolutionary War, the Lenape moved west to Coshocton, about halfway through what is now the next county.
According to some accounts, Newcomerstown was named after an incident that occurred between a Lenape chief and his wife Mary Harris. Chief Eagle Feather grew tired of his wife. He abducted a younger squaw as a second wife and tried to have Harris accept her in her wigwam. Harris allegedly killed Chief Eagle Feather and told the warriors of the village that the young squaw ran away. The warriors hunted the young woman down and killed her. The settlement was thenceforth known as "Newcomerstown", after the squaw.
In 1900, 2,659 people lived in Newcomerstown; in 1910, 2,943. The population was 3,822 at the 2010 census.

Judge Karen Conrad last week upheld a motion to prevent the attorney for Marion "Frank" McCane to introduce information regarding a court case in Georgia, in which similar charges were brought against another man by the minor who alleges McCane had sexually abused her.
McCane was indicted May 20 on 19 counts ranging from first-degree rape, sodomy and sexual abuse to second-degree sodomy. The charges stem from a complaint by the minor that he had been abusing her since September 2002, when she was 8 years old.

The Porsche Cayenne represents the ultimate in SUV performance and capability. All are agile, quick, able handlers that rival many sports cars, but also offer the versatility of being able tow between 6,000 and 7,700 pounds. With four trim levels available--Base, S, Turbo and S Hybrid--there's a Cayenne to suit all enthusiasts in the range from mild to wild. With a base price of just $46,700, getting into a Cayenne rather than a BMW or Mercedes-Benz SUV is a real option.
The Porsche Cayenne SUV has been tastefully renovated for 2011, with a slightly longer wheelbase, more elegant, organic exterior sheetmetal and a weight savings of 400 pounds thanks to a generous helping of aluminum in the doors, hood, and chassis, a new 8-speed gearbox and lighter engines.
First introduced in 2003 to lukewarm applause, the Cayenne quickly silenced its critics by showing itself a serious performer. For 2011, the popular Porsche is redesigned in and out, and there's even more to like in 2011.

Kid Icarus: Uprising got the lion's share of attention during today's Nintendo Direct broadcasts, with the game's online multiplayer the subject of much discussion.
The video below shows most of them in action but if you're more of a reading person — which, as you're on a gaming website, we imagine you might be — there's official descriptions of the multiplayer modes.
Kid Icarus: Uprising is out on 23rd March.
Multiple Multiplayer Modes Revealed in Kid Icarus: Uprising Game for Nintendo 3DS
22nd February 2012: Nintendo has revealed new details on the different multiplayer modes in Kid Icarus: Uprising, which will launch exclusively for the Nintendo 3DS in Europe on March 23rd. More than 25 years after the launch of the original Kid Icarus game for NES, Kid Icarus: Uprising brings the action and adventure of this beloved series to new heights. Modes and features in the new game include:
· Light vs. Dark: Team up with other players in Light vs. Dark multiplayer mode, in which two teams of three are pitted against one another. The ultimate goal is to empty the opposing team's health meter, which transforms the last defeated team member into an angel. The team who defeats the opposing team's angel wins. This unique multiplayer mode tests players' ability to work as a team while keeping the match exciting as the focus constantly shifts from dealing out damage to protecting the team angel.
Free-for-All: In this mode, up to six players (including CPU players) combat each other in a winner-takes-all match. Winners are determined by high score, heavily influenced by both the number of kills and the number of deaths.
Match Set-up: Both Light vs. Dark and Free-for-All multiplayer modes are playable through local wireless play or online for players with broadband Internet access. CPU players will fill out the roster if there are fewer than six players in a match. Duration of the match, CPU difficulty, weapons and team handicaps are all customizable prior to beginning a multiplayer battle.
Weapons and Weapon Fusion: The wide variety of weapons a player has collected in single-player mode can be used during multiplayer matches. Players can also earn additional weapons as rewards in multiplayer play. Players can choose set combinations of weapons and powers before entering into a match. This provides further incentive for players to continue collecting different and more powerful weapons as they play through the single-player campaign. Players can also fuse weapons together at the Arms Altar. Fusing two weapons will result in a single, more powerful weapon that retains some of the key benefits of each, giving players the ability to customize weapons to match their play style. Fused weapons can also be used in multiplayer matches.
StreetPass™: Through the StreetPass functionality of the Nintendo 3DS hardware, players have the ability to share one of their weapons with other Kid Icarus: Uprising owners. The selected weapon is turned into a Weapon Gem. Shared Weapon Gems can be converted into real weapons by paying Hearts. Players can also fuse Weapon Gems together by paying Hearts to create a more powerful Weapon.

Sometimes You Gotta Let Go!
The Phases of Sewing Machine Collecting
Phase 1: Looking for a first sewing machine or a backup for your plastic computerized machine that's always in the shop, you find an old Singer 66 or 99 minus the slide plate at Value Village. Although you have little or no interest in old sewing machines, it will be okay as a backup machine. If you don't like it, you can give to a family member (daughter) when she voices an interest in learning to sew and if you can't get it sewing, you can always use it as a decoration in your sewing room.
Phase 2: After cleaning, oiling, adjusting, and testing your find, you learn that it's an enjoyable activity and relatively easy, and you fear that your daughter may actually want it. You start looking for another machine for her so you can keep the first one. You begin going to local auctions, visiting every local thrift shop weekly and spending your lunch hour cruising ebay.
Phase 3: Friends, neighbors, and co-workers now know you collect sewing machines because that's all you talk about. They start dumping their non-working machines on you that have been sitting in the damp basement for 20 years. In your search for SM info, you find and sign up onto dozens of sewing machine forums. You spend more time reading and keeping up with the digests then you do working on the SM's. You sell your plastic computerized machine on the Sewing Rummage for $200 more than you paid for it and swear to never again sew on a machine made after 1955. You have wild dreams of selling your collection to some museum and retiring in luxury.
Phase 4: As you find more and more sources, you begin acquiring them faster than you can fix them up. You vow to limit the collection to one era and one manufacturer and pass by all others. You keep that vow religiously until the next time you visit the Goodwill store and see a neglected (fill in any manufacturer's name here) sitting in the corner on half-price day.
Phase 5: You have so many machines that you start donating or parting out the ugly ducklings in your growing collection (because no one wants to even pay shipping on them). Straight stitch machines are no longer a challenge and you pass them by in favor of more complicated specimens. Since few of those were made before 1955, you raise your manufacturing cutoff date to 1970.
Phase 6: You stop actively looking for more machines as you realize that you have more than you can fix up and sew on for the rest of your life. You settle down to fixing up the nicest few machines in your stable and sewing on them occasionally.
Phase 7: You tire of collecting and begin trying to dispose of your space-hogging old sewing machines, but you find that there is no market for them. Your fantasy of retiring on the proceeds of your collection goes up in smoke. You donate more to charities and haul some of the stripped carcasses to the dump.
Phase 8: You pare down to just three vintage machines you can't bear to part with - a Featherweight and two others. You are now sewing more and more but long for stretch stitches and features that the older machines can't provide.
Phase 9: You go to the local Sew & Vac and buy a brand new $3000 plastic computerized machine so you can enjoy one-step buttonholes, three alphabets, and 9mm zig zag.

Oh Ed, that is priceless! What an entertaining read.
There is something magical about vintage sewing machines. It is so satisfying to bring home a neglected machine, clean it up and have it sewing smoothly.
By the way my Necchi Lelia is sewing beautiful precise straight and zig zag stitches in three different needle positions. Lelia is a favourite in my collection.
Next time you want to retire a van load of machines to the dump, don't tell anyone, just sneak it out there under the cover of darkness!
What are you sewing these days? - 1/27/2010 9:56 PM
- OldRound said...
You need some youngish, pretty, hipster sewer to extoll the virtues of each sewing machine (stealthly, one by one), then list on ebay, then you can pay someone else to package up and mail machine and then you can retire and enjoy the proceeds. : )
- Ed Lamoureux said...
I certainly should consider that when time comes to pare down the good pieces but the ones I'm getting rid of now are parts machines that have been harvested, some with cosmetic issues so major that no one would give them a second glance, and machines that are so common they would not sell for enough to pay for packaging materials. If I don't have recycle packing materials on hand and have to buy new, it costs me about $15 to package a machine. It takes an hour, and more time (and gas) to haul it to the UPS pickup point. I figure if I don't realize $25 more than my cost of a machine, I'm losing money. - Ed

This was a clever essay. I'm in phase 1, nearing phase 2. I kinda thought this might happen. LOL

Clever essay. I'm in phasing 1, nearing phase 2. Better get a bigger garage. LOL.
Good dispatch and this post helped me alot in my college assignement. Gratefulness you seeking your information.
- Walter said...
Hi Ed, Thanks for the great info! My wife and I own 17 machines and are always looking for models we don't own. We are looking for copies of the 301 and 201 adjusters manuals. The 401 adjusters manual you posted was invaluable in resurrecting our 401. If you could steer us toward the requested info we will be eternally grateful. firstname.lastname@example.com
I loved the post!
I'm in Phase 6. I'm more interested in sewing than cleaning and oiling machines. But I'm not ready to part with the machines I haven't used yet.
How many machines do you have? - 2/04/2010 10:47 AM
- JustGail said...
Good post Ed! Not sure what stage I'm at, I think somewhere between 1 & 2. I do look at machines at garage sales & re-sale shops, but have restrained myself from purchasing, although I do regret not getting one, more for the cabinet though. Mostly I watch for attachments for the machines I do have already.
As far as taking a bunch of machines which have been stripped of parts or are not repairable, or common, to the landfill, the only thing that comes to my mind is if the metal bits are recyclable. But then, I don't imagine you'd want to take them apart if they were, I wouldn't. Is there a curious 6-9 year old around that likes to take stuff apart?
As far as those saying "before you know what you have", my guess is they don't read your blog or haven't been on the sewing machine forum for long? Besides, the more of these machines that end up in the landfill, the more "valuable" the remaining ones become. Like my dad says, "if it weren't for people like me throwing stuff out, all that stuff in antique stores wouldn't be worth diddly".

Enjoyable read Ed....For many people in the vintage sewing machine realm, these old machines aren't "things" they are sacred cows. You could sell your eldset child for a profit and send your mother to the landfil...but don't you DARE do either of those things with a sewing machine! LOL!
Ed, I loved the humorous account of your SM journey. For me it could serve as a cautionary tale. (I hope I don't forget) Twenty-five years ago I bought what was for me, "the machine of a lifetime". It is a New Home Memory Craft 6000. I loved this machine, with so many easy to use features, and I used it quite a lot, at first. After a spinal cord injury and the subsequent confused digital sensation, I couldn't bear to handle fabrics. My machine was virtually unused for about 20 years. Recently my daughter who lives some distance from me, wanted to borrow it for her budding entreprenurial crafting scheme. I couldn't bear to let it out the door, fearing it would suffer while away from my watchful eye. That is is why I began collecting SM's in varying states of usefullness and repair. Some Sewing machimes had parts missing and lacked power and foot controls. I kept searching for the best machine to suit my daughter's purpose, and my modest budget. Now I must attempt moderation so that I do not become addicted to SM collecting. I had for some years entertained and educated my neighborhood kids with all manners of projects and events, so I thought I would start a beginners sewing class with all the machines I have collected. That is, if I get them up and running. I'm sure I will get most running but sure could use some manuals so I know where to oil, adjust tensions, etc. It is curious to me that one can find a manual on the internet for just about anything made and download it for free, but there are few freebies for sewing machines. When doing an internet search, you are directed to sites that say the manuals are "free" but most likely the free manuals are not going to be for the machine you have.

This is funny; I fear I'm still at an early stage with my nine vintage models.
Just wrote this piece, "Top 10 reasons to buy a vintage sewing machine." Hope you enjoy it!

Hi Ed,
I have read all of your posts and a thousand others elsewhere trying to learn and understand my needs. I have never sewn except maybe to put a button back on a shirt and should have paid attention to girlfriends that did because now I do. I am an avid outdoorsman and always find that all my gear needs adjusting, resizing, repairing, customizing and always thought I could do it myself by sewing rather than glue, duct tape and rivets.
I was looking at an old singer 15-91 or 15-125 because from what I have read they seem to be able to handle the materials I want to sew but finding one in good shape seems to be very expensive and I know there are a lot of accessories I will need to do this. It would probably be cheaper to bring it to a local tailor but I'm a doityourselfer and want to learn and tackle it myself.
Can you suggest other sewing machines to consider? I would buy on ebay but don't know enough so sticking to ebay and people that deal with sewing stuff only. Also, if you know anyone that is selling something that would suit my needs please send them to me.
Thanks...David - 3/05/2010 11:29 AM

Hi there,
I'm new to your blog and have enjoyed reading about Nicchi machines. I just bought a Supernova with all the extra parts. However while I was oiling and cleaning it I noticed that a roll of foil about 3/4 inch wide had come out and unrolled. I can not get it rolled up and back into its little hole. On top of that the machine that did work, doesn't now. Oops! Can I replace this part with a more modern thingie? I don't know what this roll of foil is but it is not something that is of modern make. Guess I should have not opened the bottom of the machine to clean and oil it.... Any suggestions> Or dose any one have any parts or part machines they want to sell?
Cindy - 3/21/2010 11:20 PM
- Ed Lamoureux said...
I have been inside a lot of Necchis and have never seen a part like you describe, If you could email me some photos of the foil cylinder and the place it came from, perhaps I could make a guess. - Ed

A good option for a home machine to do heavy sewing is a Japanese model from around the 1960's. They are cheap, strong, and usually of good quality. Kenmores and other store brand machines from that era (Penncrest, Signature, Wizard) are not particularly in favor and fit that bill. So do Brothers. You should be able to find a good one in the $10-$35 range. I prefer the ones where the bobbin loads from the end of the machine, rather than the ones that load between the operator and the needle. - Ed - 3/23/2010 8:07 PM
- knowspics said...
Thanks Ed,
oh ohhh, I already bought one and spent more than that. I bought a singer 201K. I heard it was a workhorse and could sew through just about anything. Ebay lister had good feedback, and the listing said it was in very good shape with test stitches shown. I am sure I am going to rewire it and take it apart and put it back together again. That is my unfortunate nature. Thanks though. - 3/23/2010 8:23 PM
- Ed Lamoureux said...
All is not lost, the 201 will hold its value better than many other machines. When you're finished with it, if you keep it in good condition, you might even end up selling it for more than you paid! - Ed

Too funny -- squarely in phase 2, but at least my 66 and 99 have their slide plates! Karen

I came across your blog while searching for information online about a sewing machine. A lady I work with gave me a pink Montgomery Ward HappyLite sewing machine, with a model number of UHT J1837. It says made in Taiwan. It belonged to her husband's first wife, so she doesn't have any information on it. I'm trying to figure out how old it is, where I can get a manual, and if it should have a foot pedal (there isn't one with it). My Internet searches didn't find any information. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you! - 4/19/2010 9:52 AM

Hi, so completely off topic, but on an older post you said that you have a 301 service manual pdf. I didn't know how else to ask you so a comment it is. Would you be willing to share?

Hi Ed!
LOL! It is the first time I am here and I am yet having fun with this great post! I guess I am on fase 2, but jumping to 7. I think I do not have space enough to grow my collection and I want to have time to sew and enjoy the machines I have. The post was a good advise for me. Thanks! - 5/02/2010 10:27 AM
- Kathleen said...
I simply loved your essay. I do tend to get a bit silly when I see an old machine household or office. Reading your blog probably saved me 22 years, as many thousands of dollars and a lot of space.
Thank you, and I will not be collecting sewing machines. I will always admire the older stronger designs, but I must keep a rein on my impulses. - 5/02/2010 9:56 PM

LMAO! Too funny! I am in stage 2 (or is it 3?), which is how I ended up here, trying to identify that $25 Singer on craigslist, just five minutes from here...
- Jacqui's Quilts said...
LOVED this post! I discovered your blog while looking for info on the 15-125. Great essay. We moved a year ago and stripped useable parts off 85 machines and called the local scrap dealer to come and pick up the rest. I'm bookmarking your blog!
- Apartment 6A said...
I haven't read all the comments, but ignore anyone who criticizes you for hauling an old sewing machine to the dump. As much as I am an advocate for recycling, reusing, and "saving the planet," I recognize that there are some instances in which you just have to get that crap out of your home and out of your life pronto and somehow only the sense of freedom that standing and watching all of that stuff you once treasured become a part of a towering pile of rubbish will free you of the burden and the mantra "what the heck was I thinking" that screams through your mind. Feel free to e-mail this dumpster diva if you'd like some books, records, shelf pins, polyester '70s shirts, drawer pulls, kitchen utensils, a wine cooler with no racks, bad artwork, broken furniture parts or miscellaneous other trash. Abilify abilified my compulsive hordeing for far too long and now this stuff has got to go or else it's going to the dump! P.S. As some items are just too precious to part with, I'll just warn you, don't even try to convince me to get rid of The Concise Dictionary of Middle Egyptian, a book on the History of the Aloha Shirt or holographic Jesus and the Last Supper. P.P.S Don't try to fix computerized Husqvarna's by yourself. If you do, they might still be in pieces 3 years later and you might have a featherweight, a 1928 Singer in the table, a Necchi 535FA (that works perfectly), a Husqvarna 1+, and a Janome serger just in case one of your other machines breaks! All because you fear the guys at the sewing machine repair shop will laugh and tell you you shouldn't have tried that at home.

Hi there,
Do you know how to fix a needle bar on singer 306k that has come apart?
the [art that holds the needle has fallen apart and im unsure of how to put it back together as there is a little piece that looks like it sits inside... i cant find anything on the net...
please help ??? urgently... - 7/03/2010 5:35 AM

dont know what is funnier...your blog or the responses... I collect SMs...know that they will not ever be valued by others...have a back up plan for thinning...am looking for one more machine...have lots of offers of freebys out there...lots of ones I ought to be fixing and a local museum where I can clean, oil and polish to my hearts content without adding to my own herd...accept I asked them to send people to me who are offering the machines they no longer are accepting..:-0...guess I am in a bad way....robin
I LOVE my vintage machines! I haven't started getting rid of any. So, I'm probably still in phase 6. But recently I saw a really cool typeface monogrammed on a dog toy and started looking into machines that'll do alphabets - lol.
I decided a computerized machine bought sole for the monograming feature was a huge waste of money. So I'm going to try my hand at monograming manually instead.
What I really want to know is...
Do you think you'll ever actually buy an expensive computerized (plastic) machine with a one step button hole and alphabets?
I love your blog!

Actually, I have one - a Janome 6500P. My wife bought one for quilting and I contracted sewing machine envy and bought one for myself. I rarely use it now that I no longer try to make clothing, the home dec and craft stuff I sew most is all straight stitch and I use vintage all-metal family machines or industrials. Haven't fired up the Janome in a year or more. - Ed
Wow! that's an expensive machine.
I don't own a Janome, but a repair guy in town I talk to, LOVES them.
I purchased a used 2006 Singer 2732 mechanical machine for sewing classes. It has a horizontal cogged belt running the feed dogs similar to the old light blue Singer stylist 348. The top gears in my Singer 2732 are (of course) plastic. I love the auto threader on it, even though it's feels kinda flimsy and cheap.
In terms of new machines, personally, I love the sleek and simple design of the Singer Confidence machines. The reviews are mixed - which is a shame. They are really smart looking machines. I might have to buy one anyway...lol.
take care,
Jonathan - 9/22/2010 4:20 PM
Phase 7 had me laughing so hard...no I was howling because that was exactly my idea. Good thing I didn't hoard Singer 221 or even 222. Last year I watched a 222 go for EUR130.00 on Ebay Germany. My husband asked why I didn't bid for it but strangely enough I had no desire even though I would have given my left arm for one years before. Singer 221s routinely go for EUR49,00 or thereabouts,sometimes in absolutely mint condition!
Hi Ed,
Great piece. I admire you and am grateful for the warning. I plan to stick to phase one and stay there.
I have only experienced my moms singer from the late 60's that she covets now (after planning to pass it down when she got her new high end plastic machine from the sew and vac store that she sorely hated.) I got a Revere metalic blue Delux made in Japan at the thrift store and had it tuned and the motor and cord replaced. Was hoping to track down a manual? It had lots of foot attachments but was hoping to learn more about the machine. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Sonya - 11/08/2010 7:41 PM
I laughed out loud at Phase 2:
"... After cleaning, oiling, adjusting, and testing your find, you learn that it's an enjoyable activity and relatively easy, and you ... FEAR THAT YOUR DAUGHTER may actually want it..."
omg - LOL - is that me!
I'm in between Phase 2 and 3 - I own 4ish. I say "ish" because - well - I don't think my Sears sewing machine bought back in 1978 qualifies ... :D - 12/07/2010 8:30 AM

Ed, I enjoyed reading your post. I'm just now retired and interested in building my own heavy weight motorcycle jacket as a hobby.
Leather will be cowhide in the 4 oz. range so I guess I need a machine that can handle 2 layers @ 8 ozs total.
I am hoping I can get away with one of the so-called *industrial strength* older machines with metal gears, perhaps a "walking needle" machine?. There seems to be more of these type of machines available as opposed to real industrial machines.
*(I understand these aren't real industrial machines).
Could you possibly advise me if I'm on the right track here Ed?
And if so are there a couple of machines you could recommend?
(with reverse and/or with options you would recommend as being useful for this type of project?)
A final query; can these older 'industrial strength' machines be made more powerful by simply swapping in a more powerful motor or does this idea not work well?
Thank you in advance for any assistance Ed.
Cheers, Ted.

I hate to hear the phrase "Industrial Strength Sewing Machine" because that is a phrase manufactured by scammers to sell old, unwanted family sewing machines at an industrial machine price. A sewing machine is either industrial or not industrial. Further, "industrial strength" implies that the machine has a 1/4-3/4 horsepower motor while those "industrial strength" machines still sport their original 1/10-1/20 hp motors.
That said, an all-metal vintage machine with an end-loading bobbin would possibly serve your purpose. A higher hp motor would help, so look for one with an external motor. The Japanese made good machines and they are not in fashion, so the prices remain reasonable. Kenmore, Signature, Brother, Fleetwood, or any of hundreds more machines made in Japan in the 50's and 60's would be my suggestion for a reasonably priced family machine strong enough to sew leather. -Ed - 12/08/2010 1:28 PM

Im with you on collecting,but I set a limit of only 50 machines and they all have to work. I try to sell at least 10 a year but most of the time selling a "$10.00" machine that works and has a manuel isnt mush of a sale.But the people Ive met and have made friends with are priceless,I found your site by looking for info on a Easy machine itlooks like a singer Model 15 ,well thanks and good luck write me any time.

I know exactly what you mean. I keep telling myself that I have to put and end to this insanity. After all, I am gettin absolutely NO sewing done. Fixing the machines to get them working seems to be my high priority. I have ALMOST every machine I could possibly want, YET, tomorrow I am going to pick up 3 FREE machines. When will this stop????
- supermom said...
This was a fun read. I do understand how it could become a collecting obsession. I've recently acquired a Singer 15-91 for myself and a 201-2 for our middle daughter. And then in the process of looking for a cabinet for the 15-91, ended up with a 201. Thank goodness lack of space is a major consideration or who knows where this could lead... lol.
Ed, You should sell the machine carcasses as anchors! Yeah... well I am full of Ideas... anyway..
I love your blog! Love this post! It is priceless! - 8/10/2011 11:22 PM
Hi, I just found your blog and I see myself in your essay. Only the lack of money and space keeps me from having a huge collection. I love the older metal machines. I have been sewing since I was 7 or 8. Started out on my Mom's Singer treadle machine (which she still has in perfect working order). We wore out her late 60's Morse. Then after I was married I was given a straight stitch machine that I can't remember the name of.
I have had several different machines and now 4 that I don't want to part with. My Riccar M40 has been one of the workhorses that just seems to go on forever. It doesn't need foot pedal. Push button start and stop. Then my Mother needed a decent machine and I found a JC Pennies from the early 70's. She did not like it. I would not part with it now. I USE my machines. Now for the collecting bug. I watch Ebay machines and learn a lot by looking at old machines and researching them. I found a Dressmaker machine still in original box with all the cams. It was listed for 9.99. No one bought it on the first listing. then it was going unsold for the second time and I could not bear to see it go unsold. It might have ended up in the dump. The shipping was more than 4 times the cost of the machine. But it is a wonderful machine. (I've got the bug, don't you think?)
My 4th machine is a Kenmore serger.
But I love these older all metal machines. Mom bought a lower level Brother plastic machines and I have used it a few times and I just don't think it would last as long as these older machines that I have. I love using them.
My niece wanted a machine but didn't know what to get and only wanted to spend about $30. At a thrift store I found a Morse 6300 that was dirty all over and looked rough. But when the lady let me plug it in and I touched the foot pedal it took off so smooth and even that I knew that a good oiling and minor tension adjustments would be all it needed.
My niece was perfectly happy with it. The machine is older than she is but she didn't care.
Well I didn't mean to go on for so long, but I just get carried away. - 9/14/2011 12:46 PM

OK... You nailed me. I have finally realized I cannot own at least one of every VSM (1920 through early 70s and many of them after that until the last 20 years or so). Am up to around 120 machines. Have only checked ONE so far, oiled it and verified it operates. Most are still in their boxes. I have been so busy collecting.

Recently, I had the enjoyment of attending The Future of Web Apps in London. This was my second FOWA in London since 2008 and I was really pleased to learn that we would not need to make a long trek out into the Docklands this year.
This is also my Fifth 'Future of' event having actually gone to Future of Website design in New York City, The now defunct Future of Mobile and lastly The Future of Web Apps in Edinburgh which are all part of the very same Carsonified occasions umbrella hosted by among the most cordial hosts in the tech scene– Ryan Carson.
One word describes a Carsonified event to me: 'Funky' which is no wonder they were the event organizers behind this years Twitter Conference appropriately called 'Chirp'. This could be huge for the health and wellness industry. Carsonified makes the technology company feel cool– which is motivating to all included and promotes an environment for individuals to share their concepts whilst having a good time.
This year's FOWA had a very various theme to the previous occasions I have actually participated in. That being, vendors of some pretty cool online Applications encouraging Business owners and Designers alike to charge for their services. This theme was additional stressed by a session called: The best ways to Get People to Pay For Exactly what's Already Free, Delivered by White Bear Lawn's Eileen Burbridge & Linus Olsson of Flattr (Which is a system for paying individuals who's website material you like).
In addition to the inspired story behind one of FOWA's Sponsors Squarespace– a site building tool to help designers accelerate the Web Design and Advancement process. Their story was quite easy. They charged people for their services, no Freemium Design. They just kept their payment plan easy by charging on a Regular monthly or Annual basis and continued to do so for 7 years, growing their company organically. Up until recently, when they decided to take Equity capital investment from Index Ventures and Accel Partners.
Free services online are not sustainable. Servers are pricey, Designers are expensive and Designers are ending up being more needed as the general public's expectations rise to expect well formatted material. This pattern makes sure to take shape in our ever growing online market.
Thank you FOWA for having us along! This was definitely an event I quickly will not forget.

David Ortiz back in a Big way
HR adds to impressive return
Washington Wizards forward Michael Kidd-Gilchrist, the No. 2 pick in last year's NBA draft, admitted in February that he lost a game of one-on-one to Michael Jordan a month before the legend turned 50.
Now no one would argue that David Ortiz is to baseball what Jordan is to basketball. But if Big Papi shows up for batting practice 10 years from now and sprays line drives all over Fenway Park against Red Sox ace Allen Webster, would anyone be surprised?
What Ortiz has done with bad heels and no offseason since returning to action this month is simply absurd.

2008-2013 Cadillac CTS General Discussion Discussion, cts future vehicle forecast in Cadillac CTS Second Generation Forum - 2008-2013; now this is what Im talking about........ 2 door STS .... that looks hot...
Re: cts future vehicle forecast
now this is what Im talking about........ 2 door STS .... that looks hot
Re: cts future vehicle forecast
The rear trunk deck with its large chrome strip in far more reminiscent of the 2 door Eldorado than the current STS in my opinion.
I would love to see someone photoshop the new 2008 CTS in a two door coupe version in both the red metallic and jet black.
Let's see a side view and 3/4 rear view as well.....any takers with photoshop skills?
ps: loanofficer....I'm with you though. The Eldorado is was "all class". Cadillac really needs a two door CTS coupe and possibly the same platform with a retractable hard top convertible! - 09-13-07 04:02 PM #18Cadillac Owners Fanatic

Re: cts future vehicle forecast
The diesel will a 3.2 turbo unit developed with Italian company VM Motori.
It's interesting when they are going to offer the coupe. I might skip the sedan and wait for the coupe provided it looks good, has Magnaride with AWD and priced just moderately above the CTS, and still below the 3-er and A5.
I guess this way of thinking ("skip the sedan") may be what will hold GM from bringing in the coupe for a little longer that we desire - Sponsored Links Remove Advertisements
Re: cts future vehicle forecast
loanofficer, nice photo-chop
Re: cts future vehicle forecast
thanks for the diesel info, a 3,2 sounds nice. I am in europe so this is just perfect for me. cheaper and easier resale. and with the stabilitrac also it is just perfect.

Re: cts future vehicle forecast
Well I believe that the Cadillac CTS is firmly entrenched in Cadillac's portfolio.
The new 2008 Zeta platform is significantly different than the 03-07 CTS. The new 2008 CTS rides on a platform that gives the CTS a wider track that is borrowed from the STS platform while maintaining the same wheel base.
The introduction of AWD that is also borrowed from the STS now allows the CTS to compete on equal ground with the same AWD offerings from BMW, Mercedes and Audi.
I think what we have to look forward to with the CTS are a couple of things. One would certainly be a 2 door coupe as well as a 2 door coupe with a retractable hardtop. The retractable hardtop convertible option would allow seating for 5 as well as open air motoring.
I think it is very safe to say that the CTS in its various upcoming alternative platform offerings; RWD, AWD, Sedan, Coupe and Convertible will "butter Cadillac's bread" for quite some time.
As with the CTS and its various platform offerings, the Escalade will continue to be the dominant luxury SUV vehicle in its class for some time.
The SRX luxury crossover fills the gap nicely between the CTS and Escalade for those that need more interior cabin room, but not something as large as and Escalade. The SRX continues to be the industry's luxury cross over vehicle class leader year after year since its first year of inception.
So to summarize; I think the CTS, SRX and Escalade fill the Cadillac portfolio very well.
The only red-haired step child seems to be what direction the STS and DTS will take.
The Cadillac DTS offers the traditional Cadillac "full size" four door sedan that is desperately needed in the portfolio, but IMO....the car is very bland and lacks any sense on interior or exterior style that is consistent with the art & science design theme.
The STS on the other hand reflects Cadillac's art & science design theme, but lacks the full size sedan space of the DTS. And given its close proximity it size to the new CTS....I see its days being somewhat numbered.
What would make sense is to take all of the art & science design elements of the current Cadillac STS in both the exterior sheet metal design and interior cabin elements and build that on the larger DTS chassis platform.
What is accomplished there is providing a full sized traditional Cadillac four door sedan with all of the art & science design elements and cues that better reflect's the new brand image of Cadillac.

Re: cts future vehicle forecast
The 08 CTS is still on the Sigma platform in the width of the STS, but the wheelbase of the outgoing CTS. The Zeta platform will be used for the DTS/STS replacement with early reports saying that the CTS will move to Zeta for the next redo. The Zeta cars are flexible in terms of wheelbase, width, and front/rear clip lengths to produce cars from the Camaro to the long framed Cadillac.

With olympics, USO, toronto, cincy skipped, that is a huge amount of pts. If Rafa had played those events this year, he could at least have gotten 1500 pts (total events worth 4750 ) if not more from that bunch. That means that to be no 1 before toronto/cincy next year, the only way Rafa can make up for this hole is to win 2 of the 3 slams before USO plus a few masters. Btw I'm not saying Rafa should have played USO, I'm simply suggesting the implications of skipping so many tournaments. Basically I expect Rafa to not get to even no 2 in the world until late next year.
Seriously,who cares about this? His career is hanging in the balance yet people want to quack on about getting back to #1. How about he actually gets back on court period before we start worrying about needless crap like this.
He won't make it back to 1. In fact, I doubt he'll ever have a full season again, so even ending the year at #2 will be difficult from now on.
I think he might be out of the top 3 very soon. I'm wondering what's going to happen with the indoor season. If he meets anyone in the top 10, or any big hitter/big server, he's going to have a very unpleasant time.
Realistically I wouldn't even him give him a shot at #1 in 2013. If the injury continues how is he gonna defend the bulk of points from early 2012 that form most of his current ranking? I doubt he's gonna reach the AO final again + defend all of Barcelona + MC + Rome + RG.
I made a thread about this but it was deleted for some reason. I think that's the 6th time that's happened. :-| Anyway, as I said before, the number 1 ranking isn't too important to him right now. He still has some records he can set, like becoming the first man to win a slam 8 times (can achieve this at Roland Garros 2013), or becoming the first player in the Open Era to win a title 9 times (Monte Carlo).
cause your threads are in the art of trolling keep making them and the mods will take them away karma
Had to read your post three times before I understood what you were saying. I didn't see anything wrong with my thread.
the mods did and thats what counts but anyway not going to detour this thread anymore so enjoy nadal wont gain the numebr 1 ranking again atleast until djoker and fed fall by the wasteside, even then murray is around, therefore i dont think it will happen again in my opinion
I talked to a few people who are usually pretty accurate about everything tennis related. They all think Rafa has been suspended for doping but the ATP values him so much that they will never release that info. A lot of touring pros think he dopes but they know his presence helps tennis in general so no one can do much. Anyway not trying to flame rafa, as I am a big fan, but let's be real about it..the guy is most likely doping.
I dont know what that means since I rarely post here due to all the childishness. I really have no dog in this fight I am just sharing a rather interesting conversation I had right before the olympics, and the person said "I guarantee he will sit out the US Open".
we'll surely believe you... i'm not going to say he does or does not, but i'll take the innocent until proven otherwise option with nadal.
People on this forum lack basic common sense so let me try to explain the logic train. Let's take 2 scenarios, Rafa was doping before Wimby or Rafa was doping after Wimby. If Rafa was doping BEFORE Wimby, then I find it hard to believe that he would be taken by 5 sets by a guy like Rosol. Must be some really bad drugs if they actually make you lose in the quarters at Halle and in the R64 at Wimby. If Rafa wanted to dope AFTER Wimby, then he and his camp would have to be REALLY stupid to choose the period before Olympics, the only event in FOUR years where you are likely to be tested. It would make much more sense to dope AFTER the olympics for the USO. So why would he skip the Olympics then? I know this sounds really out there but i have heard this theory that if you aggravate a pre-existing injury it gets worse. Perhaps even bad enough that it might force you to skip a tournament or two. Crazy right. Of course I don't expect anyone to believe this outlandish theory.
I don't care if you guys believe me. I just shared for all the normal folks who browse and don't post all time. The last few posts clearly show my point. I don't need anything explained like I am a child, I know exactly what I am talking about, and I don't care if you regular trolls care or not. enjoy your infighting and multiple accounts..sniping each other and meaningless debates.
Look, we all know that Nadal skipped Olympics, 2 MS, USO and possibly the rest of the year because Rosol beat him and he wants to give credibility to that fake injury of his. That or he was silently banned for half of the year. No freaking way was he injured. No way man.
Thats laughably false. Nadal is one of the biggest stars in tennis. they will protect him just as they did Agassi. Only difference is Agassi admitted it.
Nadal's knees are a chronic injury, not a one-time thing. They are basically destroyed. It's not an acute injury like a pull or a tear, which can be fixed. All the ligaments in his knees are caput. His knees are like a 50 year old's. He won't be back to #1 ever.
Gasquet is a horrible example. No one cares about that guy, and he is a perfect guy TO publicly ban if you think about it..a tennis fringe star. He is not Fed, Nadal, Agassi, Sampras level of fame.
The thread title is pure sacrilege to the name of Santa Rafaela Nadal viuda de Rosol. **** never gives up
He's still a household name in some countries. Why ban somebody who's been ranked as high as #7 in the world publicly? Why wouldn't they do that to the other top ten players?
Gasquet brings no money to the sport compared to the big guys. Stop embarrassing yourself with this argument, it is horrible. read this post and move on. http://tt.tennis-warehouse.com/showpost.php?p=6807956&postcount=18
So, just because Nadal makes more money than Gasquet, he's going to get the "silent treatment"? Intriguing.
No, but he makes a hell of a lot more money for the ATP and tour promoters, which they would lose if he actually admitted to doping. Some fans would still adore him, but most would not.
What evidence do they have that he is doping, or what have they heard specifically from other players? Do your sources think the same thing happened back in 2009? Not trying to be confrontational, I just want to get some specifics.
Well the evidence is more educated speculation. Just knowing the game, knowing players who have doped before and the signs of it. Honestly, players are taking things..basic things that enhance your focus or stamina to more advanced levels. It is out there and that is just how it is at the highest level. Serena is highly suspected as well. Ask around to anyone who is on the pro tour or works with players on the pro tour and depending on how candid they are with you, you may be surprised at what you hear. I was kind of skeptical, but the guy predicted this would all happen. Olympics then hard court masters than US Open. People want to say his knees looked bad at Wimbledon, but he just got beat down. It had nothing to do with his movement, which was fine.
As was said Gasquet is not on the level of the top 3 or 4(the players that draw) and his ban had nothing to do with performance enhancers.
Honestly I could but I don't want to due to respect for the persons. I don't mind if people don't believe me, I just wanted to add a different point of view. I remain a nadal fan. It doesnt matter to me. I believe a lot of pros on the tour take things that are currently undetectable.
I don't ven think the number one ranking is of any concern to nadal. If he starts winning loads of titles again and it happens, it happens. Similar to Federer where I don't think he was that focused on the top ranking this year til it suddenly looked possible. To be honest I think if Nadal doesn't return to number one next year, he never will. But who cares if he can still win slams? I agree just playing is the number one issue, and who cares about the top ranking now, but that's a little bit rude to a nadal fan and one of the best/nicest/fairest posters here..
You're right, you don't need to be #1 to win slams. Nadal is probably a lock for Roland Garros next year, just because he might not be in the top five doesn't mean anybody else can stop him.
It sure as hell would be silent! Nadal is too big of a commodity for tennis to ever let that info get out.
Except he's not giving this stuff up voluntarily. He has no choice. No need to stir the knife in the wound at this point.
