I think I have one of those attachments somewhere in my sewing stuff and I'll have to get it out and try it. As a child, I remember my mom making beautiful bottonholes on her Redeye 66 with one of those attachments and it always amazed me. I loved to watch that little black gizmo do it's thing. I am still in awe of all the inovative attachments that were made for all of the old machines and I envy the minds of the ppl that can come up with the ideas. Truly inspiring.
