I have pipe cleaners and 1 little straw. I'm going to try it. Looks like a great idea. Going to get some more straws and make 1 for each machine I use. Thanks for sharing.

I can get way inside but I also use the small vacuum attachment at least once a month or more often, depending on how much sewing I do.
