I was working on my Stack n Whack yesterday and finally finished the borders. As I was happily sewing away; I noticed that DAMIAN was talking to me. I needed the manual to figure out what the little oil can was. Well, I reached 180,000 stitches! In my Aurora, the machine tells me to clean it after every 180,000 stitches! Very cool.So, I sent Amal to ask Waqar to come and help me as I couldn't identify the pieces. He's the engineer. He did not come in a satisfactory amount of time (he was busy) and so I got to it and fixed it myself. It was fun taking the bobbin apart and all that FUZZ or LINT! I was bending all kinds of ways to see better. You have to turn off the machine and unplug it so as it was evening, I had to put my desk lamp on it's side to see in it. So, I finished, put everything back and did my practice run to get the oil distributed and turned everything off and covered it and got back to watching a show.
After a while, Waqar walks in and says, "Ok, let's have a look!" I did not have the heart to tell him I had already done it. For two seconds. Then I told him I waited (several hours) and did it myself. He said, ok but I asked him to 'double check my work'. We got into it and he really oiled it up. Got this CRC Duster Moisture-Free Dust & Lint Remover power spray and it scared me as it is like seriously blowing into the machine which, as you all know, is a major no-no. Jean??? I need to speak to her. She is my expert!
Anyway, it was all done and now I don't feel like sewing today. Or do I? Nope, don't feel so good again today.
The picture is of Waqar using that spray and I was happy to see Peachy sitting behind the machine for a change.
Thanks for stopping by.
