On those bobbin's... thank you. For some reason, I didn't think that 1 1/8" was 'long'. My thread tangles a bunch, so I was thinking that maybe the bobbins I had were not the correct ones. It could be the thread or tension. I'll work on the tensions and figure it out. I didn't ever check the S/N actually. lol. I know it's a 127, cause it's full sized, VS2, Sphinx, spoke wheel, but electrified, and has the bobbin ejector. The 27's didn't. So this has got to be the newer 127... It sews slowly... it's not lack of oil or grime, I think it may be the old wiring/pedal. I may just chuck the electric motor all together.

I have not been in the shop for a few days. My little blue chihuahua, Balto, died Saturday. We were not prepared for that -- he was such a sweet little guy and up until Friday he seemed so healthy! It is hard when you love them so much.

Nancy I am so sorry for the loss. We had our Chi for 11 years when we had to put her to sleep because of a congenital heart failure. We found out she had it 6 months before she took a turn for the worse. That was the most stressful 6 months of my life and I miss my little girl. Something about the breed you just can not help but to love!

Nancy, my heart hurts for you. Losing a beloved pet is so difficult. You'll see him again at Rainbow Bridge one day.

Nancy;
I am sorry to hear about the loss of your Balto. Still struggle with the loss of my Husky about 1 year ago. Miss him like crazy. Very Diificult to lose a furbaby who's one of your children.
