I pulled the bobbin out after the needle change and discovered a "glob" of stuff under the tension spring. Just prior to sewing I did a rotary hook oiling and got a bit more oil on it than I intended. I wonder if the excess oil got down on the cardboard bobbin side and softened it up a bit? Not important but wanted to be complete. :) =========================================================== The AmayaUsers Mailing List Website: http://www.amayausers.com Discussion Board: http://www.amayausers.com/boards Subscribe/Unsubscribe: http://www.amayausers.com/list ===========================================================
