I work in a small municipal printing house, which has three of these beautiful machines. Unfortunately, only one works and it is a bit battered by the years (the security system, cleverly hidden behind the name of the machine, was cut off a long time ago, the counter lost its protective cover as well as the flywheel, the original motor system was cancelled and replaced by an electric one, the cleaning system no longer works, and neither does the dusting system) and it is incomplete (it lacks all the accessories, all the tools, the tympanum plate, it only has two guides, of which I think there should be four). Luckily, the man who uses it, the machinist and main operator, although I came late in his life, is someone who cares a lot about the care of this German jewel. I, his assistant and second operator, fell in love the first day I saw it working. Even today, six years after I started working there, I am still fascinated by how advanced it is for a machine that is over seventy years old, and above all, how reliable and versatile it is when it comes to doing different jobs. The other two machines need to be repaired, but they are much more complete and in better condition than the one that works, so perhaps, with luck, one day I will see them working, and be able to get a complete idea of ​​all the potential that these machines have to offer.

where did you get that seat?

Thank you so much. I gave my Elna Jubilee to my daughter and hadn’t used it for over 15 years. It was jammed and I couldn’t quite figure out the threading again. Your video was exactly what I needed. It’s working perfectly again. Wonderful for a 40 year old machine or any machine actually. I always loved my little Elna.

Does the machine require a particular calibration for die cutting or are there specific dies for these machines?

Omg, love it, that was my first job when i graduated in 72,running a 10x15 heidelberg windmill, thank you for shareing.

Excellent filming & edit, shame there was no registration adjustment & pressure setting 🙂

I love this machine and the sound!

Trabalhei por muito tempo. Aqui no Brasil chamamos ela de leque

That is a Gravely tractor with electric start. Probably a "super 8" but it could be a model L with electric start added.

Thank you so much for this video!! I’ve had this sewing machine for like 10 years, have tried multiple videos to try to get the damn threading and bobbin pickup to work, and finally got it with this. You’re a gem!

sons of anarchy hahaa

I can't believe this doesn't have as ment likes as it does I've always been in love with these old 1950s projectors the way you clip in the real in the way you put in the film amazing.

Awesome.

💟💟💟

Watching these machines operate is amazing.

I like the minimal casting of the base in this design. The engine is bulky yet sleek instead of bulky and a giant immovable block.

WoW very beautiful ❤❤❤❤❤

where to get this engine and how much it cost.

18 minutes of oscillating fan…hmmm…I wonder what your view retention percentage will be? 😵‍💫

I think this might be my favorite one yet! Besides the nostalgia of the sewing machine. ❤

I only see one pushrod and the other valve is spring loaded for atmospheric pressure. Doesn't matter, but it is a nice working hit and miss engine! 👍

A thing of beauty is a joy forever

*Correction* -This is actually a throttle governed engine and not a hit and miss engine. Though very similar they are different. Good eye (and ear!) to one of our viewers for pointing that out!

Nice, but this is a throttle governed engine instead of a hit and miss.

How this doesn’t have a bajillion views is beyond me.

What a beautiful machine.. brilliant video

Why do hit and miss engines make really strong tq at low rpm ? Technical info please

Well filmed, I liked the crisp clear closeups.

The yellow one is faster. 😉

That’s sharp! Add some footage of the working guts.

Amazing Cinematography!! I love these vintage freight elevators. Absolutely built to last.
