Thanks for the good pics of the Red Eye in your first entry--I got snookered into buying a Red Eye not too long ago--priced not too badly, but was assured that it still sewed. Got home with it, and the whole needle holder/attachment thingy was GONE; when I looked at the machine all I saw was a needle and did not know that it needed one like I see in your pics. My son and I have tried several things as substitutes, and none of them work. I still can't get the machine to make a stitch. GRRRRRRHDRWMGSJA.

Glenn was here and we messed around with his method:
[ATTACH=CONFIG]441580[/ATTACH] I have some more polishing to do on it still - that is not done yet. No, it is not going to ever look original but it will be serviceable. The rust does come off. And it does make a stitch. What more can I ask? Thanks Jim |

Miriam, what are you doing with the can of shellac? Are you rubbing it on?
Thanks Jim |
