My husband was impressed with the machine. My daughter said she'll bring over the machine that is causing her problems......thinking I might be able to fix it....never know...turn a little tension knob...oh, maybe it needs oil?? Couldn't go wrong with the price......

Me too, but I can't we don't have a true thrift store here. We have a store called treasures, but nothing really there just a lot of glassware, and other stuff the owner buys from garage sales.

In the picture, you don't have the outside end piece of the case slid in, it goes in front of where the bobbin is, to make a larger area to hold the fabric, while you are sewing.
If you got the owners manual of directions, look at it to see how it slides in. You can keep bobbins, and needles and a ripper inside it, too -it is a kind of storage box.
