Machine won't crank
Ok, I think I've fixed the issue with the needle hitting the bobbin case. I cleaned and oiled it good. However, now it's kind of stuck. It will turn 3/4 of the way one way and stop. You can turn it back in the other direction to where it was before. The motor just hums and won't do anything. Any suggestions?
She's pretty, tho. She's a bright white, although you really don't know it from this picture! And I still haven't found reverse on her yet!

I used to have a machine very simular to the one pictured. The reverse button was in the center of the knob above the Necci-Alco label. Sounds like something has worked its way into the mechanism that turns the bobbin. Maybe some lint or thread.
