    Does it look like this?


    If so then no, it does not take cams. The darn/embroidery feature is just the feed dog position.

    Cari-
    Yes it looka just like that. Thank you dor responding. I am having issues getting it ro sew. The bobbin thread and top thread wont connect it seems like a tension thing. Any idea on the aetting on this i have messed with it all day and i am ready to scream. It was sewing yesterday but i didnt have the thread wrapped around the tension knob by the hook... if that makes any sense. Today i did it and now it wont work. Sorry this is so long.

    What was different yesterday than you did today? Since it was sewing yesterday you must have done something different. Either you've got it threaded wrong up above, or you threaded the needle wrong, or if you changed the needle you might have inserted it wrong. The most common problem when the needle won't pick up the bobbin thread is the needle is in wrong.

    The Remington is very nice. Looks like a Koyo built machine.

    I love everything about that Remington! The color, the dashboard look, the mid-century star decal, and the name!

    I just posted a thread detailing the build of the table this is attached to, but I figured I would add a picture to this post as well as it fits.

    Industrial looking table. Is there a huge motor underneath?
