    happyquiltmom,

    I have bobbins made from the early 1900s that were machined from on piece on a lathe and used in the Singer 9W-7 machines, that work in my FW. I've got original FW bobbins too. ...

    purplefiend,
    Go back a page or two and check out my pictorial on bobbins and FWs. I beat you to the "No it doesn't" part. LOL :D

    The bobbin tyres and bobbins get cheaper as you order more. In my last order I had 10 Singer size bobbin tyres. Plus a bunch of spool pegs and other goodies.

    I have a couple OEM bobbins for my 120-491 but not many. If I ever get the tension problems figured out I'll need some more.

    Do you have a Kenmore 120- series that uses those bobbins? If not...

    Candace,
    I put the link to the FW bobbin page at Sew Classic in the 5th post of this thread. I guess sometimes people just skip the existing responses and start commenting.

    The second picture is of a FW bobbin in the FW bobbin case.

    The third picture is a Class 66 bobbin in a...

    NO THEY DON'T. Class 15 bobbins are as thick or thicker than the Class 66 bobbins. No way would they fit.

    Singers that use the 221/301 bobbins: late 9W-7, 221, 222, 301. The Class 66 and...

    MimiBug,

    No way in the world could a Class 66 bobbin work in a FW. I just went down and tried one in my FW and the bobbin case would not even fit all the way in. The 66 bobbin is almost twice...

    MimiBug123,
