    sambra,

    I have a couple machines with very similar top tensions and your machine is missing the tension disks. Off the top of my head I can't make a suggestion of where to look other than your LSMG. If you have one.

    I'm thinking so too. I just don't think I have one put together quite like that.

    Near as I can tell the only thing holding the thread is the slots on the cover and the bigger spring which must catch the thread when you wrap it into the slot on the cover. Like I said very akward. The numbers on the dial are basically pointless as there is nothing to make it stay uniform with the rest of the parts.
