Helen the needles and the little center part turn around, as well as the

Ah, then it is the one that's much like my 4 stitch Magic Cord. I don't
think you can remove that tube without breaking it. My old Hobby Knit is
more like a mini sock machine. The 6 needles go up and down, but only in
place, while yarn carrier revolves round it. That means the knitted tube
flows straight down without twirling.
