I am clueless as to the use for these attachments and I don't even know if they are complete or if they are assembled correctly.....I do have a 66 so once I have a set of attachments for my machine I would be happy to help out anyone else with their needs.....while at yet another auction I bought this box for $5.00...each and every one of the smaller boxes inside are chock full of attachments....I will post a couple of photos....Is there somewhere else on this site where I can post a large number of photos of all of the attachments?

I have 2 other model 66, one electric and another treadle, however the bobbin winder is made differently.
If you know of a tute or picture I missed, please let me know.

I was at an auction a couple of weeks ago and I bought a box of misc. sewing supplies for a whopping $2.00---this little box was in the larger box....it appears to be an attachment box of some sort. I have never seen anything like this. Can anyone out there tell a little something about it?

No it is not the same. See the piece that holds the parts of the bobbin winder (the black piece shaped like a "Y") that is the piece I broke on my other machine but found a replacement. This piece is silver metal on mine with a notch on the left for a screw.
The top piece that attaches to the shaft itself is not on my bobbin winder at all.
Some how I have to attach the "Y" piece along with the top thread guide and top that holds the bobbin in place to the shaft. I just can't figure it out.
From my experience, I will NEVER take another bobbin winder apart. I will clean as best as I can on the machine! They don't agree with me, obviously. :cry:

I took mine apart to clean it thoroughly thinking it was the same as my other 66 treadle but this one doesn't have the black piece for the bobbin winder but a steel one. I goes together differently. I have most of it put back but can't figure out the rest. It is made differently than the other treadle.
Thanks in advance.

Yeah, Billy I did it again!
