Also, 66 feed dogs don't drop--at least not easily. Look for a darning plate cover for your 66. And pick up a $5 or $10 Japanese SS machine with dropping feed dogs. It will drop right in your singer base.
Miz Johnny I did not get any bobbin with my Redeye so I have nothing to compare a bobbin to, to see the shape of the bobbin I need. Is there any other machine that uses the same bobbin as the Redeye so I can see what I need to use?

The Singer 99, 401/403/500/503 and some modern Singers that I know nothing about.

There's a good comparison picture on this page:
