I miss your website also. I discovered it years ago when I was raising bettas. It is uncanny how much of our interests and hobbies overlap each other. The wealth of information contained on your website was invaluable. Thank you for the website and your videos.

I miss it too, but the server it was on was having so many problems I was no longer able to correct problems.

Unfortunately, I had to take it down. The server was introducing errors faster than I could fix. But, it had a good 25-year run with a total of 50,000,000 views so I can't complain. I apologize for not replying sooner, but I just got home from a long stay in the hospital.

Wayne, how do you dates these? I have Reliance built by national. Is there a serial # hiding somewhere?

National usually stamped a serial number onto the machine's base under the front shuttle cover plate. Unfortunately, there are no serial number records for National machines, so dating can be a problem. Even identifying which model you have is difficult because National used so many different names, even for the same machine. Your best bet is to visit Needlebar: www.needlebar.org/main/national/index1.html And see if you can spot yours. I have been able to track down a few serial numbers, which may allow you to estimate when your machine was made. 618,854 = 1895 1,111,005 = 1910 2,314,288 = 1913 3,299,867 = 1922 These dates are from images of machines showing their serial numbers from websites that also give a date. I have no way to verifying how accurate they are. Thanks for writing!

Here's a list of New Home serial numbers and their corresponding dates: ismacs.net/newhome/manufacture_dates.html I hope this helps. Unfortunately, we donated our machine to the local quilt society so I tell you where the serial number is listed on your machine. Thanks for writing!

Hello, I have this Paveway sewing machine. How do I find the serial number so I can date it? In its current condition, the hand wheel does not turn. I’d like to research this machine before I start disassembly. Thanks! It’s similar to a 1910 treadle machine I’ve seen on another you tube video. This one is a table top with a wood case.

Hi! And thanks for commenting! The serial number for National Paveway machines is stamped into the edge of the base under the front slide plate that gives access to the bobbin. There are no lists of National serial numbers and their corresponding dates, so dating them is almost impossible. Complicating things is that National had different serial number systems for several of their model lines. For Paveway machines, here are the few numbers I've been able to find: 1,111,005 - 1910 2,167,857 - 1913 2,314,288 - 1913 3,299,867 - 1922 I hope this helps. Good luck with your restoration!

Bonjour Wayne Schmidt merci pour vos videos et grâce a vous , j'ai pu identifier une New idéal que j'ai récupéré dans un sale état mais complète . Es ce que vous avez fait des retouches sur les motifs et si vous pouvez me donner les références des peintures pour cette machine svp et merci d'avance

Notre Ideal était en si bon état que nous ne l'avons pas restauré, donc je n'ai aucune information sur les couleurs de peinture à utiliser. Mais, je sais que des transferts adossés à l'argent ont été utilisés. Ceux-ci peuvent être simulés avec des décalcomanies modernes à dos argenté. La vidéo suivante montre comment le faire. Bonne chance et merci d'avoir écrit !
