Thanks! Fortunately, the machine game with an owner's manual in 3 languages even! A friend of mine owns a 1036 and has been very happy with her. I only picked her up to have a machine capable of zig zag and some decorative stitching. Her bobbins sure are odd, but she came with 10 or 12 and most of them are still in their original packaging. There's a foot with it that doesn't look like it's in the owners manual, it looks like an edging foot like my friend has for her bernina. It's got a funky flange thing right in the middle next to where the needle comes down.
Still reading the very large manual.
