I've spun around in my chair so much since I got his email that I'm dizzy!!! :lol:

I have a few of these inserts for my #9. Very cool.

I need some help. I know I read this somewhere but can't find it now. How am I cleaning the attachments I have? Some are just crummy and some have a little rust on them. Some are rufflers with lots of crevices. Thanks for the help.

Does the Evapo-Rust then evapoate or do I rinse it off? I am afraid whatever I use will not "dry" completely.

Had a Singer 185A given to me today, just a bit heavier than my featherweights but actually close to the same size. Pea Green. Haven't plugged it in yet and given it a whirl. No bobbin, hopefully will have one around here to fit it.
Have a picture of it but not sure how to post it. Just wondered what I have, any suggestions, does need cleaning. Cord has quite a few splices in it, kind of afraid to plug it in.
