Look what I found inside my Singer 500. Yikes!
I bought this machine 5 years ago and have never really used it. Plugged it in and tried it for a bit and it worked fine. I recently brought it up to my sewing room and got her all oiled and lubed. She sews great! Today I was playing on her when I heard the dreaded clunk and the needle stopped moving. When I looked inside I found a spool holder! The second one was never on the machine since I had it. I can't believe it had broken off and was inside the machine. I'm so happy nothing broke because of it.

This is where the missing one belongs.

This is where it ended up.
