Uwe Posted September 29, 2015 Report Posted September 29, 2015 (edited) If you want to get a new pre-tension unit (presumably with bigger tension disks), it's available from AAAsew in Canada (USD $96, search for part number 0221-110154-DAD. Slightly sketchy ordering system, but I've successfully ordered twice from them), or from College Sewing in the UK for 50 pounds (USD $75, world class ordering system) Edited September 29, 2015 by Uwe Quote Uwe (pronounced "OOH-vuh" ) Links: Videos
