Stuck Singer 201
So I've been heating and oiling for a month or two a 201. Took forever to get the gear wheel off, but still no progress on freeing the needle bar. Any hints?
Been heating with a hairdryer, oiling couple times a day, futility trying to turn using stop motion knob without gears... Part of the issue is that the needlebar is all the way down, and while I've tried using a wooden lever to push up, still no movement. The cold weather has kept me from trying a kerosene soak, pblaster has been the worst I've tried.
