There's this little hoop of metal that goes on the top of the shaft that holds the thread. It flung right off as soon as I put the walking foot on. I tried to take as many pictures as I can. There's a little hole in it, like where a screw would go, but no screw that I could find. Course, I couldn't figure out how to get it back on the shaft either. You guys have any suggestions?

I have no idea how to get it back on there....or how it flung off in the first place!
I think your screw was a little loose (no pun intended) but that is the thread guide for the needlebar. I think you can get by without it but try to find the little buggar if not you might need to find a parts machine and get the screw you need off of it.
