Very old those had a kinda bullet shaped horizontally moving shuttle. My grannys 1890s model for Ex.

Y'know what? I'm a seamstress and didn't realize that's how the magic happens down there.

I do not have the brain to even begin to invent things like this.

How is the hook mounted if the thread goes all the way around it? It's not floating in the air... Is it?

It's a shuttlecock, Harry

Gif is wrong. The thread stays on one side of the hook-thing, only goes completely around the bobbin, which floats free.

Funny, Everytime I tried it, the machine just made a giant mess of thread and bunched up fabric

I wish there was one for overlock and coverstitch machines too, those loopers are witchcraft

I never knew there was so much monkey motion going on under there. Thanks.

Sewing machines are obscenely complicated mechanical devices. Length adjustments, multiple stitch types, automatic buttonholes, etc.

I can finally rest knowing the magic behind sewing machines

Can anybody explain where the metal ball is attached to? The string completely goes around...

Mine is in a small hole with a cover, it can spin freely inside

Yes please, now I'm confused.

On mine, the shuttle hook is held in place only by a magnet. The thread can slide between it and the magnet.

Inside the metal ball is a small spool of thread called a bobbin that feeds the thread out that hole. And behind the metal ball is a metal

Even looking at mine I cant figure out how the string goes completely underneath it. How is that thing held in there??

Stick that it's balanced on. So hard to describe, hold on llet me take a photo...

Ugh, better off just googling "bobbin" or "sewing machine bobbin"

"Sew that's how it works" would have been more appropriate title

Don't worry, it'll be reposted, again, with that soon enough.
