How could he tell you metal would ruin your machine? When they started making the 66 they did not have plastic bobbins? I say use a good quality bobbin, plastic or metal, that works in your machine. I don't use plastic in my 66, but mine is a 1914 machine -- there were no plastic bobbins then.
Miz Johnny, Billy, anyone else have an opinion? I am curious too as I was told to never use plastic bobbins in my 66!
Nancy[/quote Nancy, I agree with you. My '63 401A will only use a certian metal bobbin. if it's a cheaper one(bobbin) it won't give me a good stitch.
