The bobbin itself could be the problem. I hate those Torch & Throw machines too. But the bobbins get nicked up or warped or what ever - try a brand new bobbin in there and see if it works. The 600's weren't too bad if you can get the bobbin to work.
Geeze, Monica I sure can hear your frustration! I have avoided those Touch and Swear - 'literally' machines since I heard how bad they are! I saw one in our repair shop having its feed dogs replaced one day -- because the feed dogs were PLASTIC and all worn smooth!
Where is Miz Johnny? She has said in the past that the 600's were good machines, so it must be the 700's that went to the dogs?
