Until I took another look at the tutorial, and Helen's very helpful site, and got my finger out, and my Singer oil out too (ha ha) and although I thought it was pretty quiet before, it's even quieter now!! It runs a litle smoother, it feels, too. Please let my shame be enough punishment.<br /><br />Thanks for your labours of love with this site and the youtube work, it's making a big difference in many lives.<br /><br />Felicitygreenbutterflymindhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03665287349982162229noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1895516057450453227.post-5923642632826641122013-03-05T13:54:38.886+00:002013-03-05T13:54:38.886+00:00It turned well because it was coated with vaseline...It turned well because it was coated with vaseline. All right in the short term, but frightful in the long term because of the sticky residue, which I had to clean off with paraffin.<br /><br />Love, <br />MuvMuvhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00734374133479479218noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1895516057450453227.post-83168694589216267652013-03-05T12:36:44.863+00:002013-03-05T12:36:44.863+00:00all was not revealed tomorrow!

No you don't need to remove...Hello Missy Shay,<br /><br />No you don't need to remove the faceplate to oil it - just soak the oil into the felt at the top.<br /><br />If a machine hasn't been used for years you need to take off the faceplate to see what is hiding behind it - dried up sticky oil, big balls of fluff, broken pins... It's all part of the clean-up process.<br /><br />Love,<br />MuvMuvhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00734374133479479218noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1895516057450453227.post-61130398686777600462013-02-27T12:41:48.524+00:002013-02-27T12:41:48.524+00:00I did not know to remove the face plate to oil it!...I did not know to remove the face plate to oil it!
