Not so, according to Reuben O. Doyle, a sewing machine repairman of 25 years and author of "Serger Repair for the Home Sewer." "In over 75% of the repair jobs I get, the home sewer/crafter could easily have handled the job if only they'd known what to look for. In about 25% of the repair jobs I go out on, the problem is such a minor one that anyone with a checklist of what to look for could fix it in seconds, but I have to charge them the same service fee as on any repair job. Of course any broken parts need to be taken to an authorized service repairman for repair or replacement, but those types of service calls are by far the minority!" Written in step by step instructional style, this book takes the serger machine owner through problem/solution scenarios allowing them to fix problems that can cause a lot of frustration for those who sew.

This book was released on 2007-10-03 with total page 314 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The reason for this book was the recurring gossip and speculation that the Standard "Sewhandy" machine was the basis of the SINGER 221 Featherweight. After many months of research, I realized that documenting the Sewhandy would take more than 500 pages; I have published "before the Featherweight - Sewhandy" in two volumes. This book, Volume 2, covers maintenance & repair of all Sewhandy models, mechanical and electrical operation, advice on buying, restoring, shipping, parts, model identification, & a specification comparison of an OSANN SINGER Sewhandy with a SINGER 221 Featherweight. The companion book, Volume 1, details before the design (early 1920's) thru production end (late 1938) of the Sewhandy, patents, model identification, Sewhandy ads and brochures, & an OSANN SINGER Sewhandy versus SINGER Featherweight sew-off.
