I haven't tried to chain. Here are some pics. I got the little drawer thing with my machine. Here are the contents. [ATTACH=CONFIG]373360[/ATTACH]

I do not know what the round thing is. It is the same size diameter as the bobbin but a little taller. The throat plate is just like a T&S for chain. I have a surplus of those if anybody needs them.

It looks almost like an insert that might take the place of the changed bobbin case? There isn't a part number on it is there? I'd love to know if your machine can chain with the parts it has. I will try to chain with the regular bobbin case tomorrow. Tonight, I'm really sore from leaning over a short table to cut quilt squares at sewing circle. I sure appreciate my taller table now!

The scooping on the back of the needle plate is a little different than the T&S plates, and again, the part number is different. I think I tried the T&S plate in there, because I was curious, and it wasn't a good fit,.. but it's hazy, so I might have just thought about it. Might have run into the BCase. Might not be a problem though for a "regular" BCase...

I find it really interesting though that these 2 machines have such different pieces for the same model.

BTW, I asked the supplier I get my new Singer parts from. They said that the leg cushion for a FW (45780) will work in place of the original "pads", if you convince them a little. I will give it a try when my fresh ones arrive.

I'm not sure how that assembles. I do not see a parts number - for all I know it could be a part off a toilet. There is no manual - I do have one I downloaded but there are no details about the bobbin area. Nothing about changing out the throat plate nothing about the round thing - just stringing up the top and leaving out the bobbin.

That is exceedingly weird. The manual I have shows the AK3 plate in use, and the upper threading, but that's it. There is no mention, like you say of other parts. If I thread according to the instructions, and change the plate, it works, but I have a different bobbin case than you do, so I'm not sure what to tell you. Does the round ring fit in where the bobbin would go? Could the slide plate close with it in place?

Might be from a toilet...

So much drama going on here I haven't tried yet. I don't know what the arrow is about either. [ATTACH=CONFIG]373555[/ATTACH]
Oh and that IS my index finger...

Drama,.. more than car accidents and almost-super-bugs? I thought you'd had your trifecta of bad luck!?!?

That is really weird. I don't know that I've ever seen anything like that with a Singer... or any machine for that matter.
Maybe it's Goth jewellery?

It's a lovely finger.

I saw that finger once ..... waving in front of my face as it's owner said: "No you can't have that 3/4 size cabinet". LOL

That would be the same finger. I wonder about that arrow... Why is there an arrow?

I would say that what ever that ring does, the arrow indicates a direction of assembly. Just a guess.
