You are awesome! I don’t think many people would have thought to take the time to fix the music box, or even know how. Leave it to Sophia to show the world that something’s aren’t that difficult if you want it fixed. Thanks Sophia!
you amaze me with all the things you are willing to jump into and try to fix, remodel or create. I read.....and read.....and eat and then read somemore. Your level of energy wears me out but I love watching you tackle new things. I wish I was your neighbor.
Wow...very impressive! I was completely mesmerized watching you repair that beautiful music box.❤❤ Now I just need to find one to fix. 😄 Thank you for the lesson and for all your inspiring videos! 😘
Thank you for fixing it and showing us how! As I was watching I was thinking what a great faith illustration that is. If not used and taken care of it becomes rusty and stuck.
Thank you for that I have 2 music boxes that need fixed one was my mum's, great now I know how to fix them although they haven't worked for years, thank you sooo much for showing that Sophia 😊👍
Wonderful job, Sophia! I have an inexpensive musical jewelry box I was given as a child (about 70 years ago!) which no longer plays. I'll have to see if I can gain access to the moving parts.
My husband gave me a jewelry box with a music box when I was 15. I am now 65 and it has been overwound for decades. I also have my son Jack’s favorite childhood stuffed bear with an overwound music box to repair. We lost our son two years ago and it would be so nice to be able to repair that. My grandmother gave me a music box that sat on her dresser again, overwound. I look forward to playing them all again thanks to you! Your talent is endless...thank you so much! I will let you know if I’m successful!
Sophia I love all your videos. Whether or not you know how to repair or build something ,by the time you finish you know how,brilliantly! You are fearless! I am so proud of you.Wishing I could be more like that!
Thank you! All I need is clock oil and I will try to repair my music box that has not worked for YEARS! I once said to my Dad that I loved music boxes, so he got me one for Christmas every year for a long time. I've kept a couple, and the first one he gave me is very nice - and special. Thanks again for this video!
Well, I didn’t ask, but have several that need repairs! I am excited to try it. Right now I am on a rag doll mending operation... I put it off long enough. So music boxes will be next and I will let you know how it goes!
Thank you. My childhood music box was stuck, too. Even if the problem was different, seeing you helped me understand some of the mechanisms and solve the problem.
OMGoodness Sophia! I just felt my IQ jump 20 points! You are amazing! I am going to start looking at things that are broken in my house and say "what would Sophia do?"! I LOVE you! Thank you for all you do! I can't wait to see what else is in that pretty little head of yours! God Bless!
Oh what a beautiful repair video! ;) I love music boxes! I read in our local paper recently that a neighboring town had set up a Repair Cafe. it's run by volunteers with varying areas of expertise, and people bring in their broken items to hopefully get repaired! It's just such a good idea, and nice contrast to our throw-away society. :)
Fantastic do you fix real clocks too? I was given an old clock that you have to wind 2 key holes with the key one of the springs is wound tight or should I say sprung want to have it fixed. I just love real clocks not battery operated. I love your grandfather clock wish I could send you a picture of the clock I'm talking about
Love these type of videos where you teach us how to save vintage pieces! Some times it's so easy to bring new life back into an item where someone else called it broken and threw it away.
I love the song "Oh what a beautiful mornin' " by Gordon MacRae from the musical film "Oklahoma!" I watched that movie and learned all the songs as a child.
@@karenswidzinski6071 Ditto for: Sound of Music, Carousel, South Pacific, Music Man, and others I've lost track of within short-term memory [because it's been decades since I've recalled the names of the movies].
another great video Mrs. Sophia... You make everything look so easy... Is there nothing you can't do? May God continue to bless and keep you and your sweet family..
That's what I love about repairing and servicing sewing machines! Especially the mechanical ones! You always learn something new! Thanks for sharing Sophia! 😁💐💜(sometimes a little dab of oil works wonders for those music boxes they dry out after awhile of no use and just sitting)
Thank you for sharing this. I have a very old music box that was my Mom's that quit working. I will give it a good oiling and follow your techniques. Thanks again. Love all your videos.
You are amazing. Making things that seem complicated or difficult easy if you try! You now have a beautiful music box for a little oil and a few minutes of your time! Are you going to keep the box? It goes so nicely with your other birds.
Most people call me 'Karyn', but if you want to call me 'Buddy', that's OK! LOL> I don't know when I ever turned my volume up to 90s so fast! It is pretty quiet at first, is the song 'Oh, What a Beautiful Morning?' 'Oh, What a Beautiful Day?' This looks like the brush and oil similar to the sewing machine kit? Oh, I see 'clock oil'. I have a bride from my wedding keepsake that's a music box. She always has been working fine, but the Fear of the 'OverWind!' is Real from since I was little. When I see a lovely broken music box at Goodwill, You know I'm bringing it Home with Me for the Challenge! It's so lovely Sophia. I like All the Birds you display.
Thank you ever so much for your video I bought a music box it's a wooden music box with a wooden horse and a little wooden girl riding the horse at the flea market yesterday. I was not looking for a music box. It kind of talk to me it was in a box with a bunch of other stuff and I kept hearing this little noise and what it was was the music box trying to play. It really really needed oil. So I saved it I brought it home and I found a lovely spider and a nest inside of it so I killed that LOL and watch your video and fix my music box thank you
Hey when you’re good you’re good and you Sophia are soooo GOOD!!! I have a feeling there’s nothing you can’t do. You are amazing. 🌻🧚♀️🌻 Btw what song is that playing?
2 Questions No.1: Did you know you cant' search for 'towle' on ebay? It substitutes 'towel'. Ack. Although I see some other bird theme music boxes, they aren't as lovely. No. 2: Does this repair work on other music box items like a doll or child's plastic toy that's overwound too? I guess they are different to open up. TY!
If you want ideas Sophia, I’m happy to provide one. FIXING THINGS. I love this video, sounds strange I suppose but I found it so relaxing and could watch you fix anything and like it!
You are awesome! I don’t think many people would have thought to take the time to fix the music box, or even know how. Leave it to Sophia to show the world that something’s aren’t that difficult if you want it fixed. Thanks Sophia!
I am so glad you shared this! I have a music box from my childhood that has not played in ? 58 years. I am going to try it. Thanks!
I just don't know how you know how to do so many things. You're a very smart woman.

Thank you for this. I've got an old snowman that has a box in it and it's very o wr wound. Now I'll be comfortable taking it out to fix 😊

You certainly are a Jack of all trades lol

Oh what a beautiful morning. And you made it a beautiful day getting the music box to work. Thanks for teaching us again.
I love your videos when you get to create, fix, and use your talents.
Sophia, your tenacity and talent never cease to amaze! 😊. Reminds me of a musical jewelry box I had as a child. Something magical about a music box. 🌷
Great job Sophia. I have passed on these because of them not working. Now I will have to give this a try, TFS.
You are one ,multi-talented , amazing lady !!! I do believe you could have been a fantastic mechanical engineer!
Thank you. My childhood music box was stuck, too. Even if the problem was different, seeing you helped me understand some of the mechanisms and solve the problem.
Good job! I collect music boxes for years. Thanks for advice :)
Let me know of it worked.

Me too! :)

You are such a good teacher and blessed with so many talents👍🙋
Thank You! ( : I adore a really nice sounding music box Now I will fix mine. Can I use sewing machine oil or synthetic whale oil?
Not sure about whale oil. I suppose the sewing machine is the same type.
Sophia I'm so glad you decided to share this video; Now I'm going to attempt to fix my old musical box as well.
Thank you. I have 3 old music boxes I’m going to try to fix. Where did you get the clock oil?
Amazon. You can use wd40
The song: oh what a beautiful morning, oh what a beautiful day, I’ve got a feeling everything’s going my way. 🎶🎵
You and I must be kin! I fix things too, making old things new again.
Beautiful! 😘
