2 needles broke, jammed
by Customer A1L01JL7GRGZVQ at March 14th, 2006
I got this over 2 years ago, and stuck it in my closet after i couldn't get it to work. I decided to give it another try, and took it out. Finally after messing with the bottom bobbin, it finally operated. I was so excited! So I tried using it today, and somehow the needle bent while I was sewing a pillow case - nothing too thick. I saw that the needle broke. So I took that off, and read the instructions to "clamp" the needle in. Did that - while I was tightening the needle clamp, the cheap plastic clamp cracked! I wasn't exerting much force. I didn't notice the crack until I began sewing with the 2nd needle they give you, and then it got jammed again! Since the needle wasn't broken, I don't think there is a way to get the needle out, that is stuck in the bottom bobbin, other than to break it. So I broke it, and have a broken needle clamp as well. Any suggestions to get a replacement part for this thing?
