Didn't find any search results for "15t" bobbins. Most of the Janome bobbins are plastic class 15 bobbins.

I'm still missing two machines that I have long bobbins/shuttles for - I sure hope they are working to lure a machine into my path so they can be used as intended!

My Montgomery Wards rotary takes a different bobbin...........the center hole is bigger. Which means my side kick bobbin winder won't work.

It may be true that orphan bobbins call out to the machine they belong to. There were class 66 bobbins mixed in the drawer of my 15-91. When I looked for a treadle, I ended up with a 66.

Also Superior Threads has a chart under reference guides called bobbin reference guide.

It's likely the Wards takes the same as the Eldredge/National at the top of the chart Jon posted - most of their vintage machines were made by National.
