drayamonster, you're a genius. i took the thing apart and cleaned cleaned cleaned, put it back together and used it in a so-so condition for a spell, then took it apart again and cleaned it all again. now it's like new. thank you both for your advice!!

Make sure the bobbin screw isn't too loose or too tight as well. Check your needle & thread (I would re-thread the machine) as sometimes that leads to skipped stitches if the tension isn't right or the needle is dull.

possibly the bobbin area needs to be cleaned? my started acting funny, and i popped out everything i could and took one of those compressed air canisters to it. works just fine now. good luck :)

aarrggghhh!!! suddenly, the machine is skipping stitches! it's an old old singer, industrial one, and was going along fine when it started creaking in the bobbin case and skipping a few stitches. i then oiled it a tiny bit and the noise stopped, but now it skips more stitches than it makes.... any thoughts?
