Might anyone help me reconstruction the mechanism of this family heirloom?
The natural hair across the top I understand. The red thread to the spring that controls the face needle (on the other side), I understand.
But what are the two clips below the mechanism for...presumably a conterspring to the natural hair?
Many, many thanks in advance.
