This is probably the problem and it's easily fixed:

Yes, the one thing about the FW is that you have to make sure the little arm of the bobbin case in between the slot in the throat plate!

that was the booboo the first time i cleaned and oiled, so i knew that one. this is different, its like the part that spins when u sew is in the wrong position when the needle comes down. the space is a quarter turn right when the needle gets to it and it hits the spinning thing. DH is pretty good with this kind of thing and he will look at my other FW for compar
