Thanks so much for the article a...Dear Laced Angel,<br />Thanks so much for the article and links to the repair directions and parts source. I've had a handcrank for several years now which gets use pretty often in my costuming and regular sewing, but other than oiling it and getting some lint out, I've never cleaned it. Recently it has begun to misbehave, so it's obviously time for a more thorough examination.<br /><br />Very best,<br />Natalie in KYZipZiphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04088551086336264968noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8071082523501639380.post-56002753148134688532011-09-06T20:57:49.459-07:002011-09-06T20:57:49.459-07:00Oh modern machines still scare the crap out of me!...Oh modern machines still scare the crap out of me! Besides, you generally can't get into them. I tried to open up my brother last year to fix it, but you can't. Silly really.<br /><br />You may indeed be right on the authenticity thing. Over the last few years I've noticed that the costume bloggers I follow have been more into doing things using authentic methods and tools. The very fact that more people are taking up old skills and tools and using them to add greater historical flavor to their creations encourages others to tackle similar projects, so I think we'll continue to see such a trend. As for myself, I think I'm just insatiably curious to see how old things work! I can't wait to see you messing with a big old bellows camera. Your stuff is so fantastic already; it will be awesome to see what effects you get with a real vintage setup!The Laced Angelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18098291155808824251noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8071082523501639380.post-84433691937788091082011-09-06T13:25:25.055-07:002011-09-06T13:25:25.055-07:00You truly amaze me.

Want to come up and clean my 2010 singer? please?<br /><br />Does it seem to you that the new "thing" with sewing, costuming, even photography (with me) is authenticity in process? It's not just about the final product anymore...I know you're going to sew hella killer mad awesome win torpedo amazing costumes on this thing and they will be even MADE using historical methods, machinery, etc. WOW, I mean WOW!Lauren Rhttp://americanduchess.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.com
