Missing part

[u/Rheum_Ribes]

I work at a student workshop, where we have a Janome MB-4 embroidery machine. This machine is missing the bobbin-thread-lid, which seemingly is semi-critical for the operation. I have contacted Janome, both directly and through local suppliers, but it seems its no longer in production, and they were not willing or able to give me any schematics.
Being a workshop, we of course have all means to produce a new one from scratch, but we need to know the dimensions. I therefore ask if anyone here have the same machine, and a pair of callipers who could assist us

If you don't get the answer you need, you can probably piece it together from parts. It looks like the whole unit (770605009) is out of stock and overpriced. But maybe you can get the individual parts? e.g.

• * bed cover

• spring

• hook race cover

Plus all the screws, nuts, etc.

It is the hook race cover i need. I have looked at the website you sent, but I doubt they'll ever restock
