Default Replaced Stitch Indicator

So i had to replace the stitch indicator plate and stitch lever on the FW i recently purchased. Must of took quite a knock to bend the lever and luckily, hasn't caused damage to the internal mech. Also, by the looks of the wear/distortion on the stitch indicator plate, a previous owner i suspect was quite rough when selecting stitch length.
Anyways, all fitted now and looking pretty. Now, just to source a case for it

It looks like maybe it was dropped or hit with something to do that much damage.

Wow! I am so glad you were able to get the old part out and the new one in and that the mechanism behind was not damaged! I would be heart sick if that was my Olivia.

Yup, count myself lucky indeed as had already invested in parts before noticing the bent lever. Now just left to source a case and a table for it
