I'm way behind (as usual), so if this has been answered, please forgive me. I had one of these, and could NEVER get the plate off. None of the other folks I asked could tell me how to take it off, either, so if you figure it out, please let me know!! I finally sold the machine as it was in a treadle to someone who wanted it for a decoration. I needed it gone, and she wanted it for show.

I don't want to force it either way, just looks like it has a pin "head" showing on the lower right section.
Thanks,
