Default 3 tensioners

Here is a picture of all three tensioners.

--The Brandt is a clone that I picked up at the thrift shop...is has an extra little part not seen in the Riccar but everything else between the two are the same.

--The Riccar is the one that I'm fixing but originally the tensioner had fallen apart, at the owner's house, and possibly all of the parts were not found

--The 3rd tensioner is the 'new' one that I ordered online

Tonight I'm going to try to get everything working. The owner of the Riccar is 99 yrs old and is hoping to get her machine back soon so that she can sew her pants. I hope that I'm still sewing at 99 yrs old!
