      They need light and moisture to germinate. Best sown and pressed into moist soil and not covered. Also, the seeds can be sprinkled onto a damp paper towel, put into a zip lock bag, and then stored on top of the refrigerator until they germinate.

    I really enjoyed seeing your Singer 66 Red Eye. She is beautiful! I too have one and I just love her. I believe she is a 1927 and has been very lovingly used. She doesn’t have her shine and she is missing part of her decals, but she is beautiful to me.❤Would you be able to tell me what kind/number of the needle I would need for her. She only came with the one. I would just be sewing with cotton fabric and I am hoping to be able to make a small quilt with her.

    • @robertsmith2419

      The Singer 66 takes a class 66 bobbin and a 15x1 needle. Singer recommends that you use only genuine Singer sewing machine needles in your Singer sewing machine. By using genuine singer needles, your machine will perform to its fullest potential. Sizes Available/Size Guide: Size 70/9 - For sheer knits and synthetics (the thinnest needle for the thinnest fabrics) Size 80/11 - For lightweight knits and synthetics Size 90/14 - For medium-weight knits and synthetics (the general purpose needle - most popular) Size 100/16 - For heavy-weight natural woven fabrics Size 110/18 - For heavy-weight knits and synthetics (the thickest needle for your thickest fabrics)

    • @robertsmith2419
      @robertsmith2419 Před 4 měsíci

      Singer machine needles are a universal fitting (sometimes called flat sided needles, 15x1, 130/705 H, HAx1, 2045, 2020 are all the same needle fitting) and are made to fit all sewing machine brands Singer, Brother Janome, Bernina, Pfaff, Husqvarna, Elna, Toyota and others.

    Recommend to anyone who lived in Grants, Milam or McKinley County since 1950 have themselves checked out for cancer or other effects of radiation injuries from the old uranium mining there. Higher than normal rates of cancer and thyroid diseases exist in those areas. Many people have died over the years from that exposure that, for the most part, was ignored. People who stood up to the mining businesses were marginalized or harassed out of the town. However, that has changed some and people are starting to stand up to them. Might be too little too late.

      Rules, it seems strange that you can make a video of a town where everything in it was created by someone else. You can't make a video in a National Park where everything was created by God and put it on CZcams without getting a license. You can't include copyrighted music without a license. You can play CZcams music in the backgroud all day long, but it stops playing in the background if you start a CZcams video unless you use two different devices to play each one, which is what I do, I just turn the volume down on the video and listen to music I like on my earbuds. Some people don't like the music that is available for free, some prefer nothing at all. The video had sound that I took out, the sound of the engine, and the sound of the radio playing copyrighted music for which I had no license.

    • @robertsmith2419
      @robertsmith2419 Před 7 měsíci

      The floor is 8' x 10'. We used zip panels with board and batten over that. The wood came from Wallatowa (Jemez Pueblo, NM). Mostly Ponderosa Pine with some Douglas Fir. I drew the plans with Sketch Up (the free version with a timber frame plug in). My laptop crashed, so I no longer have the plans and don't remember all of the dimensions.

    • @robertsmith2419

    • @robertsmith2419
      @robertsmith2419 Před 7 měsíci

      @user-ul8ow1xc5q You're welcome. Sketch Up is no longer free, and neither is the timber frame rubies written by Clark Bremmer. It was a pretty steep learning curve, but plenty of CZcams videos were available at the time. Most are now outdated, and the instructions are no longer valid. The last time I checked, Sketch Up was expensive, and the company that bought it from Google was discouraging third-party plug-ins. I think Clark now sells his ruby script for $20.00 along with an instruction booklet. It all worked well for me, and I doubt if I could have done it otherwise.

      Thank you for the comment. Mortises are more difficult to make without a mortising machine but I do believe it to be stronger as green wood tends to warp and twist. This twisting locks the tenons in a mortise fairly tight.

One plant grew 3 x 3 in the ground. NO deadheading. Had to shear it back from the walk and from surrounding plants. Fed it once, when I put it in the ground. It produces continual flowers all over the plant for the whole season. Again, NO DEADHEADING.
