Ahahaha! CD That's too funny! I'll have to adopt that one! "710" I have a couple that can use that treatment.

Miriam, I checked the SN and it's a Dec. 1935 date. This is the best pic I have of the bobbin area I have at this point without getting it down again for another photo shoot.

710 LOL CD you are too funny.
It kind of goes with one D ten T

That does have some bobbin parts missing.

Sorry Miriam, I hope that my joke didn’t backfire on me. 710 is simply the word OIL read upside down and backwards.

I found an auction a while back on that auction site that listed a Model 710 sewing machine, and the photos of it included a shot similar to mine of the word OIL upside down. I got a big charge out of it and decided to adopt it as my “secret weapon” maintenance product for sewing machines.

I thought it was hilarious, but then, it doesn’t take much to entertain me, and sometimes I crack myself up with goofy stuff like this......

ADVERTISED a 710???
1 D 10 T
CD I must be easily amused, too.

I love it! That’s the first time that I’ve heard that one, and yes, it’s pretty much the same kind of thing.....

Nope. I hadn't heard it before. I just pulled it on the wife, and she hadn't seen it before either. We're having a nice giggle.

CD thanks to your info on 710'ing my frozen machines and the info in the tool tips thread I picked up a few more items at the garage sale that will be useful! They had some large industrial type baking pans that had probably been used the same way! I found another stash of benders, stretchers, cutters, pokers and prodders along with several oil cans and a grease gun. I'm guessing I should empty those and fill with my own choice of oils and grease?

I also couldn't resist a snuff box and a folding iron. The iron actually still works!

While I was there yet another sewing machine was found outside bringing the total to 40 sewing machines and 1 serger. They weren't sure I would want this one, but in for a penny, in for a pound.
