Re: Bobbin question
The dark bobbins seem slightly bigger than the lighter one. Do they fit into the bobbin case of the W&W D-9? Sandra Haak [email protected]> wrote:

Re: Bobbin question
When Singer bought W&W in 1905 they continued either using the stock of bobbin on hand or made more as needed. However, after Singer ceased production of the 9w1 (a clone of the W&W D9) they altered

I don't think those dark bobbins are for Whites unless there are White Rotary models that I don't know about, which is very possible.? Attached is a photo comparing a White Rotary bobbin to my dark

Re: an handcrank for my 1 2 3 4? only head
