I bought a 221 a while ago and the lady told me the bobbin case was broken...I bought the machine becasue the price was good but when i got it home I saw there was nothing wrong with the bobbin case ...it was the tension unit that was in pieces and I was able to put it all back together...
Okay, showing my ignorance here. Is the bobbin case the metal part that holds the metal bobbin that has the thread wound on it?
If so, there is a picture showing that part under the machine.
Is that what is sometimes missing?
