The all-metal, Thread-O-Stat Thread Grabber has a smooth jaw, so the thread is gripped tightly and securely as you clamp the handles together. Unlike a typical "hemostat" which has a toothed or jagged jaw (preventing a firm grip), the Thread-O-Stat is more like tweezers, only better! You will be able to grab a hold of that little thread as you take the proper steps to remove it and the Thread-O-Stat won't let go! The Thread-O-Stat is also quite helpful for removing paper from the back of your paper-piecing projects, or turning things right side out, whatever you need to grab in a tight spot - an all around handy tool to have in your sewing room!
And!... you won't have to worry about this tool getting "lost" in hubby's toolbox because it will be easily recognizable with it's happy color of iridescent green or and a little Featherweight stamped on the side. Please note the thread-o-stats will have unique variations of color due to the nature of the paint.
TO OPEN: it will feel counterintuitive, but squeeze together and then slightly twist so the locking teeth unlock.
TO LOCK: Squeeze locking teeth together without any slight twisting.
SEW-RETRO GreaseTM has been specially formulated with the proper melting point and lubricating qualities for vintage & antique sewing machines, including the Singer Featherweight 221 & 222K... some attachments need grease sometimes, too! SEW-RETRO GreaseTM is appropriate for any and all sewing machines with all-metal gears. (Do not use this lube with any plastic or nylon gears.)
Each SEW-RETRO GreaseTM comes with an instruction sheet for application as well as a port-cleaning tool so you can clean out the motor ports of the old grease. You can also use a Q-tip or hollow cotton swab (with both cotton swab ends cut off) as a replacement port-cleaning tool.
Perfect for all the hard to reach areas on your Featherweight that may be filled with grease, dust, or lint. These custom designed cleaning swabs fit in places like the motor ports, and oiling holes where common cotton swabs will not.Comes in a pack of 20 brushes and can be reused or simply discarded.
The Singer Featherweight Maintenance Log Book was designed to keep with your machines - whether you have only one Featherweight that you use and enjoy or an entire collection that you rotate through. The Maintenance Log Book features a place to note the model, serial number & manufacture date, as well as the owner's name and phone number. Documenting maintenance serves as a reminder for when each Featherweight was last serviced and provides provenance to future generations about the care and value of each machine.
Record the frequency of oiling, greasing and other maintenance with coordinating columns to indicate service type, parts replaced, and any extra remarks pertinent from that servicing date. For example, one might want to note that the belt was adjusted for better speed, or a bobbin case screw was replaced, or tension was recalibrated.
Maintenance Log book measures 5" x 6 1/2" - small enough to keep tucked in the machine's case, but still large enough to make small notations. This is a perfect gift and makes a wonderful companion to the Featherweight Servicing Mat!
