How do you wind the bobbin on a Singer 6230 machine? The make is Singer, the model is 6320 "Limited Edition" (if that makes a difference) and I'd say it's pretty ancient. Maybe 20 years? It was my grandmother's. Anyway. This isn't like any other sewing machine I've worked with because it doesn't have a post for bobbin-winding, and you can't take it out of gear with the handwheel because it's just one wheel, which leads me to believe that the bobbin is intended to be wound inside the bobbin case itself. Right now, I'm at my wit's end trying to find a way to wind bobbins on this thing, so any suggestions are very welcome! I can link people to some pictures of the machine if you want them, too :) Thanks a bunch!

How much does a solar, wind, and/or geothermal eco-friendly machines cost? I've been trying to find an a price for each machine, no specifics, any price is fine, big machine or little machine, does not matter. Geothermal energy is a renewable energy that comes from heat, deep in the crust of the earth. Geothermal energy is used for electricity production. Geothermal capital costs include the cost of land, drilling of exploratory and steam field wells, and physical plant, including buildings and power-generating turbines. The capital cost for geothermal power plants ranges from $1150 to $3000 per installed KW, depending on the resource temperature, chemistry, and technology employed. The 'Breathe Machine' Bill will help distribute equipment that uses geothermal energy, solar, and wind power energy. This will not replace all former equipment, but it will be costly because the use of environmentally friendly machinery is $1150 to $3000 per installed KW for geothermal energy.

Will water freeze when the wind chill drops below 32 degrees fahrenheit? I'm interested in skiing but we've had a mild winter where I live. The weather has been mostly between 25 F and 40 F as of late. When it's windy, the weather report might read something along the lines of "low of 35 degrees today, but it feels like 25 with the wind chill factor." So I'm wondering if the fake snow machines at local ski resorts work when the wind chill factor drops below 32 degrees fahrenheit.

How does one wind the bobbin on an old Singer Touch + Sew machine? My husband bought me an old (made in USA) Singer Touch + Sew without a manual. He says I'm smart enough to figure it out. I don't know just old this machine is, and I don't know where to look for identification numbers.

Should wind generators be built on mudflats,in parks and industrial estates to make Southend carbon neutral? Essex is one of the best places in Europe for Wind Generation.No generation is sited in Southend at the present time.If you visit Rotterdam which was similar to Southend geographically you will hundreds of these machines. If you stand on leigh cliffs you can see smoke belching out of the oil refinery.We could replace this with an elegant row of wind turbines.Some could have viewing platforms at the top to serve as a tourist attraction.They take up little room on the ground and can be placed in parks,golf courses,farmers fields, industrial estates and on the mudflats. The civic centre would be and ideal place. Also the town would gain financially from the construction of them.

Is there already an solar-wind powered prototype vehicle made? Just curious... I notice many cars made within the last decade. Electric cars, solar-powered cars, remote-controled cars, and much more. But I thought I seen a wind hover-craft or something that uses stored energy to power up the power fans under the craft thus liftes the machine and uses the wind from the bottom to fully power the machine and save some to start up the next time. It has a fan on the back to proceed and in front for a efficent stop. Basically a gas-less evoriment friendly machine and strong against earthquakes. Have you seen one somewhere? I think they say that it looks similar like the manta machine featured in the Unreal Tournament series.
