That's what mine looks like. It looks like you use yours. The bobbins are strange to me.

Those bobbins are called shuttle bobbins. Very different from the ones we are used to. Someone posted a link to a tutorial on how to load and install them.

I have her brother Henry, I like the 128 Blackside machines with the Godzilla finish. You have a nice machine there. Glenn

The faceplate, and other parts of the machine were black instead of shiny silvery color. There are also blackside attachments...
