No thread drift here. Nope, not here.

Yeah, the grease thing confuses me too. Ask 10 people, you'll get 12 answers. Now here's something I can throw into the pot. Most of my Brother machines have a gear inside close to the hand wheel. Since they're metal gears you'd think they need greased, right? Nope. One of the oil holes on the top of the machine is directly over that gear. I can't see putting grease on it when it's just gonna get washed away if you oil it according to the manual. The only place these machines are supposed to be greased is the gear box with the hook drive gear.
