Tried to change needle out for a new one and snapped her right off.
Anyone know where to get a new one, or should I send it to someone?
Thanks,
Tim

Snapped what off?

If the old one snapped, what difference does it make?

The pin it sits on?

The metal shaft you see in the middle of this photo has snapped?

Bigtonka, yes it broke flush with the metal cross brace in the pic. I don't think that there is a way to fix the shaft, so I might have to look on Ebay or get someone that knows these things.
