Hi everyone. I'm an old hot rodder - after visiting your site a few times I decided to upholster my latest car myself. I have bought a Singer 111G155 seems to be in good condition. I have fitted some new parts including the needle bar and turned the motor pulley down so It runs a speed I think I can handle. I'm now almost ready to go with an investment of $250 Now here is my problem - the hook picks up my thread - turns it over the bobbin carrier and snags it around the tag that fits into the needle plate. Knowing nothing about sewing machines before buying this can someone tell me what I've got wrong or where the thread is supposed to go. There is not much information here in the UK.so any help would be much appreciated. Pete UK
