Have it fixed. Keeping fingers crossed. I need to have a needle threader. LOL

No wonder your screen name is awesome! The problem with mine is a little spring that somehow gets snagged by thread (I think) and then jams the feed dog area causing the needle to get stuck and break. Both times the same thing happened. I am impressed that you were able to replace yours but I think that I will remain friends with the magnifier :-)

Lucky you to be able to replace them yourself. He only charged $25. I think that was reasonable. Well it was worth for me anyway. Hugs

I have had it fixed today. Hope it keeps working. He tells me the pad to the up-down button is wearing out. I guess that will be the next thing to get fixed. These beasts of machines are not cheap to keep LOL
