Bobbin case and bobbin for Sewmor 900
 
Just got this vintage machine. It's missing the bobbin case and bobbin. Any suggestions where I can find one

I looked it up, and it looks like it takes class 15 bobbins. I don't know this model at all but the bobbin cases are usually a general standard on these machines, It needs a more accurate identification to be absolutely sure. If you have another bobbin case from a class 15 machine, you can try and insert it, then carefully turn the hand wheel by hand and see what happens. As you know, the bobbin case has a finger, it's usually either pointing lef or right (eleven o'clock or one o'clock), if you look at the part where you insert the bobbin case you should be able to identify which it is.

It's a very cool looking machine, it looks very solid and sturdy too. With a bit of luck someone who uses this model will post first hand information :- )

If it looks like the last machine on this page http://www.quiltingboard.com/vintage...207877-22.html then it should take the "1 O'Clock finger bobbin case at sew-classic.com She would also have the class 15 bobbins. Did you get a manual with it?

Bingo!! problem solved - it is in fact working with the bobbin case Class 15, side loading "1 O'clock finger.
Sending you a big Thank you :)

Also replaced the bobbin winder tire ring. I'm so glad I did not end up with a heavy paper weight, now I have an awesome vintage sewing machine in working order. After changing the needle and fiddling with the tension, it sews beautiful stitches and it is so quiet too.

No manual was included. I share pics of this beautiful vintage machine
