Thank you so much for this video 😊. I'm in the UK and today I have taken ownership of a 66K in a treadle. Mine is the early model variant and because of your video here , I have been able to remove the bobbin case and the piece underneath and clean the whole area of years of fluff congealed with oil. Thank you 🙏
Thank you! Just got a 1923 red eye and the plate was in the cabinet but I couldn't figure out how it went back on. Just starting to work on getting her clean.
Brilliant close up of bobbin case removal. As the oil wick is missing on my machine I need to replace it. Any help regarding the shape and size of the oil wick would be appreciated.
You can find modern replacements on amazon, but the finish is brushed rather than the polished finish of the originals. Good if you just want a functional replacement, but if you're doing a restoration you may need to search for an original. Perhaps try antique stores or ebay?
@@BachStudios Thanks i will keep my eyes peeled , i just grabbed a spartan for parts and its got the brushed , temporary till i get a parts machine with a chrome one , for now , it will work ....
I just got a model 66 Red Eye. Needs lots of cleaning. My question is the tension have numbers what /# 66 is. It's also electric in a wooden cabinet wrapped with some sort of leader type and fabric. I think 1922-24? Correction model AA6081835

You are doing it wrong. You cannot remove the position bracket because you mess around with the gap between the feather of the bracket and the bobbin case. You have to gauge this gap back.

Omg thank you! The bobbin cover on mine had some how popped off (legit don't know why) and I was struggling to get it back on.
Great video! Thank you. Just got my 1921 red eye and I'm taking it apart and cleaning/oiling. I hope to find more of your videos on the subject.
That's a beautiful Red Eye. The Singer 66 is still one of my favorites.

Great info
Thank you about the cover I could not figure how to place

That bobbin case is different than mine, which is from the 1950's.
