Was it someone on this group that needed a needle clamp for their Singer 27?

[quote=BoJangles]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.

I'll tell you,,, If I didn't have such a gas hog I would come to your place and get it..

Well Monica, I have to agree I forgot to mention the fact that I only use vintage metal bobbins not the new ones.

You all remember the major problems a plastic bobbin caused with my fancy/very expensive Pfaff embroidery machine? I still have not gotten that machine fixed as it is going to cost me over $500 to fix what that plastic bobbin caused.

Sorry Tomilu, but that's not a Red eye, its 127 with Sphinx decals. The red eye decals only came on the model 66.

My Pfaff embroidery machine came with only plastic bobbins.

You people are killing me. I want a treadle because I sewed on my grandmother's. The Kansas one is in my price range. My son was criss-crossing that area last week. It'd fit in a corner of his big truck. Wah, wah, wah.
