Unhappy DH is TRYING to fix my machine!

Right in the middle of sewing a purse for my sister for Xmas, my bobbin jammed and tried to eat my fabric! Got it free, and now, can't get the thing to bring up the bobbin thread. Found a repairman right in my town, but Mr "why pay someone to do it when I can do it myself" started looking at it, took every screw out to get inside, found a broken needle and a glass head pin down below the bobbin case ( haven't broken a needle in several weeks) but they don't seem to be in the way, though he can't get them out, but is making me REALLY nervous!! It is a Brother PC420 Project Runway, and only 2 1/2 years old, and this is the first time I have had an trouble. I am really good about cleaning it regularly (the bobbin case) since I use it so much. Now, I am worried he might make it worse and cost me more money when he gives up and I DO finally have to take it in to be repaired! Please send good "fix it" thoughts his way!!! I don't have a back-up to finish this present, plus, I have a couple custom orders I have to get out!
