Yes, you can, but I caution you that unless you disassemble it, you will most likely have dirt and crud get trapped under the tension spring. Also, depending on what cleaning fluid you use, you may have issues with trapped moisture, which can lead to rust. That's why I disassemble and clean...
That bobbin case looks like new. I've done a few of these, and the best thing I can say is: PATIENCE, PATIENCE, PATIENCE. Great video
Ugh! Beautiful job!
I got a pair of rubber cushions for the jaws of my little benchtop vise. So nice and shiny!
Great to watch this process! Thank you.
The magpie in me is very happy right now and singing her little heart out "Oooh, shinies!"
Awesome. I’ll be doing this with a bobbin case for a Kingston soon, patience….
Always great videos. Hope you received the spare part. I am now using a 108W on one machine and a 20U on the other.
Yes Mike! It arrived the other day, been meaning to call you. Now that I've seen the pix of your project machine, we NEED to talk!
What’s a proper time. It’s easier for me to call you. I’m retired ,so anytime for me.
Wizard!
I don't know about that... LOL... but thanks!
Hi Bob,
Can I take a nasty 221 bobbin casing and put in jewelry ultra sonic cleaner?
