She said all we do is push the dirt, lint, oil whatever into piles that does not blow out. So that is what I will do in the future. This woman is a true expert at repairing all machines, she has quite a reputation in our area.
This is also what my Bernina dealership told me. He had to replace the bobbin case becuase there were signs of rust from the compressed air.
