HOW on earth did I do this!?
#1
So I got my machine back today, and all that trouble was apparently I ran the needle through the bobbin case.
HOW the heck could I do something like that!?!?! Literally.... how is that even possible, and what could I have done to do that!?
You can see it up at the top.

I had to replace 2 on my Singer futura. On my machine a little flat spring deal was not in properly and it allowed the bobbin case to move and even jump out of it's space. Since the repairman showed me the problem.....everything is wonderful.:)

Looks like a drop in bobbin case. If the case was not sitting correctly in the opening, the needle could strike it. For my machine, I have to have the needle at the top most position before the case will seat correctly. It will, however, go in even if the needle is not where it's supposed to be. Not saying this is what you did, but a possibility.

Thinking ... the bobbin seized at one point but the needle didn't. I know that *shouldn't* happen (they usually - or are supposed to seize in unison!), but it did!
amazing that little nick can throw the whole works off.
