Looks as though my machine will be out of action for a few days. Had a day out today, came home tired and couldn't face any sewing so decided just to clean the fluff out of the machine and the end of the brush came off and had fallen into the works, so tomorrow it will be going to the Dr. Oh well looks like some hand sewing for a few days.

Hopefully it will be an easy fix. Is it possible to remove the end of brush with a pair of tweezers?

Sadly no as it has fallen and I can't see it. Think the case will have to be removed to get it out.

Hopefully they will be able to remove it quickly and then you can go home with your machine. Will hold thumbs that they can do this for you.

One of those mini vacuum cleaners might be handy at times like this. Hope it's sorted for you soon.

It is terrible without the machine. Like cutting off your Right (or Left) arm.

That's exactly what I said about the machine being in over Christmas! Glad you rectified the problem yourself! I, on the other hand have never seen the inside of my machine till yesterday and I've had it nearly 5 years this Oct. Love Chris
