The beginning - It cost HOW much?

Knowledge these days is worth a lot of money - Why do you think they charge so much to fix your sewing machine? Because they usually know how.
I say usually because as in everything else, there are those unscrupulous 'repair' people that will take the money without doing the work. Would you like to be able to unscrew the top and check that the work was actually done?
Thought so.

Why pay up to a dollar an inch ( 21/2 centimeters ) for spool pins when you can buy the correct diameter metal rod and use a dremel tool or hacksaw and file to create a handful of spool pins.

I learned much of this out of necessity - No money. Now I would like to pass on some of that knowledge to you. You will feel empowered, save a little money and sew better knowing exactly how your sewing machine works. Anything wrong with that?
