The tension assembly just plain falls out. Fell right out! Sheesh! No wonder I can't get the tension right! Took it and the screw that I thought was holding it in to the OSMPG (that's Old Sewing Machine Parts Guy, meaning he has parts for old sewing machines, not necessarily that he's an old guy, although this particular guy is no spring chicken, but I digress....), and he said my problem was with another part. See the roundy thing where the tension came off? That's the bad part. That part comes out of the machine and has a screw in it that holds the tension assembly together and then all of it goes back into the machine. So I trotted back home, took out that part, put the whole thing together, tightened the tiny screw, put it back in the machine, reset the spring 'again', tightened the bigger screw - and now we'll see what happens. Tomorrow. I'm done sewin' today.
And just for fun, we watched Better Off Dead tonight. Remember that movie? John Cusack is in it back when he was much younger. It's a classic 80's teenager comedy. Love it!!! "Go that way really fast and if something gets in your way - turn."
And here's what happens when you give the baby the empty popcorn bowl:
Just so you know.
