Wow! Ladies you have some beautiful New Homes!! It appears I am missing a piece of the tension. Not sure what it does exactly...puts tension on the thread obviously...and it also appears that my top plate is bent. Sewww....anyone know where I can find a new used one? I might be able to bend the plate I have back into shape, but will need the bottom piece. My daughter will be disappointed, cuz she was told this machine needed only the belt to run. LOL! That's Craigslist for ya!
Phyllis, thank you so much for the threading picture! That made everything so clear! You are so smart to use that heavy turquoise thread so I could see it well.
Now to find parts!
Thank you all for your help!
