Default link for keeping threads from unwinding when on this dowel

Here is a link to a feed that was on the Board earlier, it would work to keep your bobbins from unwinding.
Peace, Robert.

They are bobbins for the Bernina 800 series machine. These bobbins are black with silver colored sensors on one side which the machine reads to tell us when our bobbin is getting low or is empty. Very nice feature which works well when you are at a stopping point and can change or refill at you choice rather than mid seam.
