Which style do you need? I've got quite a few of the style on the left, however the bobbins seem to be interchangeable, they fit the same in the bobbin cases. I have not tried sewing with them swapped to see what happens. The left is from the Stout and the right is from the Slim machines.

Glen, can you spec it out for me. I've got some and I'm getting two different measures. I have three that spec out exactly the same as what my Stout machine came with (it came with 6) and I've got 3 others that seem a bit larger, but not as large as the Singer 15.
For curiosity - have you tried using a class 15 bobbin? They appear to fit diameter wise, but they are a bit taller so maybe that would cause problems.

Problem solved. The old style 15 and the new with the holes on both sides work just fine. The "L" does not work, they are two big around. My old "L" did not work either. The 66 bobbins also work great. I had no problem with the original 66 bobbins are any of the new bobbins with all the holes on both sides. I want to thank you guys for all your help.
