The broken piece would have to be down inside the bobbin area somewhere. I've gently tipped the machine to see if I could hear it sliding around (nope). DH said it might've shattered into bits when it broke. When he has more time, he's going to try taking the cover completely off the machine and see if he can find the broken bit and to get a better look at the cutting mechanism.
