Its an AL235182. My phone won't let me upload the pics. I had watched a you tube where she said to use a 16-18 needle, upholstry thread, which is nylon, and a poly in bobbin. It starts stitching fine, then it starts to skip, like its not catching the bobbin thread. Yes I've so downloaded its manual and really never had a problem sewing with it until now. It seems it sees well using the threads mentioned, but not when it gets thick. I'll try to use the same top thread as bobbin tomorrow. I also cleaned and oiled everything real good, maybe the thickness isn't allowing the needle to catch the bobbin when its too thick
