Fetherweight bobbin winding issue
I have a black featherweight from 1948. Recently, the bobbin winder seams to have trouble getting going when I start it and when I stop it and start again. It looks like the winder that touches the machine is black plastic. The belt is a fairly new one---bought a year ago but have not been using the machine a lot this last year.
I looked on the featherweight websites and they show mostly metal parts. The plastic wheel is smooth. Not sure what is happening. Yes, I checked how the thread is put through each part to wind bobbin.
Any ideas?
