They are either warped or the center moves around so that you can't wind them. Plus, some sit higher in the bobbin area, so they will not work well either. Look for vintage metal bobbins since they work! Hope this helps ya!
I found out that the newer 66 bobbins do not work :( I bought 2 packs of them and none worked. I only have 2 of the vintage bobbins and I was hoping to get more.

Anyone one know where to find vintage ones or ones that work in the vintage machines

they aren't new but they work great - Oh, and I am not affiliated in any way.
