Bobbins also do not have that little hole we use to push thread thru at least onces they sent with the machine. Books says to wind thread around bobbin couple times than hit start and bobbin will wind and it works. Although I ordered a bag of 20 bobbins for this machine and those have the little hole to push thread through and works fine as well.

More later about this machine.
I forgot to mention--one quirk about this machine is that it signals that the bobbin is out very early. I probably could piece another 10 blocks before it is actually empty. That's the only problem I have with it--not enough reason to be dissatisfied.
