Singer Electronic 560 Spool modification

For a Dutch presentation, go to: https://www.designuitinspiratie.nl/singer-electronic-560-spoelgaren-modificatie/ While tinkering with my mother's 40-year-old sewing machine, I made several modifications. One of them is a new spool holder that can be swapped out for the old one. Now it's possible to use up to four threads at once. Why would I want to do this? I just like experimenting with different colors of thread. They create nice color effects in various types of light. In my experiments, it worked up to seven threads at once: four through the needle and three wound up on the coil below the needle. Note: I had to remake two gears because their teeth were broken (please ask if you want to know more about these gears). PET-G does the job apparently, as they're still going. So be careful when using more than two threads;-). Maybe someone somewhere on the internet can also use this spool holder. If you have any questions, feel free to ask.
