I see this is an old post but I will try anyways. I had a Singer red eye given to me. My fiance put a motor on it. I used it before but forgot how. I think I plugged it into the block cord with light and motor plugins. I recently went to use it plugged it in the motor section but it didnt work .I tried it in the light section but it wont stop running until I unplug it. I have sewn on this machine before and at my wits end as to why I cant figure it out. Why is it running when I plug it in the light socket of the block? I recently had surgery and was put to sleep for it so maybe I have a mental block, I dont know. If anyone can help I would really appreciate it. Thanks

I just figured it out. I plugged it into the motor section of a plug I leave there because I use many sewing machines that use the same block and tried it on that and it worked when I plugged it in the motor part of the block and the pedal worked but why doesnt it work with my other blocks? Very strange...

I've recently been reading some "Sewing Machine Times" from the late 1800s to early 1900s and it looks that there may have been some refurbishing done during that time. I wonder if this may have happened to this machine. I'm having trouble finding much information on "Louis Barbey" Needlebar says that they made a machine called "Win-Sew"
It looks like some of the varieties of 24's took different type feet, but the needles are 24x1.
