Do you have a beautiful vintage sewing machine? Do you need to take apart the bobbin winder, but it seems too intimidating?
Don't worry! In this video, I will walk you through the process.
I will show you how to disassemble and reassemble. Also, I will show you how to adjust the bobbin winder in the event that it's too tight or too loose.
This was done on a vintage Singer 661 Red Eye machine; however, although the information won't be identical, it will translate well for other vintage machines.
To jump to the section of the video that you need, here are some convenient time stamps!
