    That looks exactly like mine.

    If you would like the shop where I bought my machine may have the bobbin case. If they do and its not much I will get it for you if you like.

    Also I found the manual online for the Riccar and I think it is similar enough that it will work for your machine.

    This one looks like my manual

    You're right...Riccar model 414 looks exactly like my machine. I downloaded a copy of the manual...thank you so much for taking the time to locate this info for me. As for the bobbin case, I've located some online that fit the 414 model. I'm also looking for the snap on table that goes with this machine...mine didn't have this with it when I bought it. I probably won't be able to find one and I'm not sure how I will be able to sew without it. Thanks again so very much. I hope I can get this machine working.

    There is one posting identifying someone who is an expert on these machines.

    No problem. I have been so happy with my machine. I love the stitch on it and it runs super smooth.
    I have been using it over my 5 year old kenmore.

    The table came with mine and I dont think I would be able to do much with out it. Just keep on the look out for it and you may find one.
    Just remember that the machine you got comes in different names and colors and no names at all.
    So if you see a junker with the table for $5.00 at a yard sale grab it for extra parts.
