Noisy Bobbin Area.


Recommended Posts

I broke a needle on my Millenium this morning while doing a little oiling and it is really loud. It sounds like it is the bobbin basket making all of the noise. My stitches are still good and not skipping so I do not think it is my timing. I am scared to continue and mess things up big time. Does anybody know what could be wrong with my baby?

Thanks for your help everyone. I do keep it cleaned and oiled every quilt but this is a new noise. Maybe the tip of my needle is hiding in there somewhere and making that new clicking noise. My hubby is going to look with me and maybe we will check the timing together. I knew I would get him into quilting. lol

Thanks

Hmmm...I can't remember the name of the part, but there is an arm that goes in front of the bobbin case.  I broke a needle and the noise was terrible.  This arm was totally bent.  You can replace it for a nominal fee, but my husband heated it and straightened it and then we did the timing thing and made sure this arm was pretty close to the bobbin case.  Works like a charm now.
