Where to find a bobbin winder replacement part on Singer 15-91
Hello...On my Singer 15-91 I slide my bobbin on the winder (fits and stays on there great) then I make sure the little pin is engaged in the side of the bobbin and push down my winder to lock it in, but when I start to wind, my little bobbin pin has a hard time staying in the side of my bobbin and it keeps slipping out. I have adjusted the bobbin wheel and tried a metal and plastic bobbin in the right size. Do these little pins get worn down? Can they be replaced, if so does an online store carry them?
Thanks so much!!!
Thanks so much!!!

Birdyfeathers,
When the bobbin winder is presser down against the hand wheel there is a finger that drops down between the sides of the bobbin. Press this finger to the right side towards the bobbin winder. Light tapping with a rubber mallet is sometimes necessary. This is a normal adjustment as the finger frequently gets bent towards the left and wil no longer keep the bobbin on the pin.
