Sunflowerzz - if you want to send me a picture of the cams, I'll keep an eye out for them while I'm searching for attachments.
I've got five oddball box sets that are missing assorted pieces, so I pretty much look at new listings for sewing attachments every day. Most sellers don't have a clue what they have, I'm glad at least most of them realize it's something sewing related.

What are you saying? Fill it back up? Put it back where? It was all in the bottom of the hole and none of it was actually touching gears. I read in a post awhile back about greasing up the gears and I was told to put a thin line the size of a small string around the gears. So that is what I did. Would you please explain what you said because I am not understanding your advice.

Thank you I will do that, also I just bought a set on ebay I think is the right set and is the one that comes with the machine, in my owners manual it shows additional cams. I would love to have the complete set so when they come in I will send you a pic of those. All of the cams are numbered so that will make it easier.
I buy every box of cams I come across when out making my rounds, hopefully we can match some up for peeps.

Nice find Sunflowerzz! I'd like more info about the grease trap also. My White 2334 has a grease trap just like that . It had been professionally cleaned two years ago. There was a tiny bit of grease seeping out so I didn't peak inside. Does someone know what type of grease to use?
