Hi again, everyone,
I have the 404 oiled and lubed and everything sounds much, much smoother, but it still sounds awfully loud to me. Sewing-machine oil wouldn't do any good for the bearing, would it? I don't have any of the 30 wt. oil and haven't had a chance to ask the neighbors.
I wish there were a way to know what this machine *should* sound like.
Ila
