We pulled this Singer 237 out of mothballs and had it overhauled but
we cannot figure out how to wind bobbins. There is a metal tab to the
right of where the bobbin goes. What is the path of the thread from
the spool onto the bobbin HELP!

I ordered a manual but it's obviously not ready for download yet and
we want to use it today or tomorrow.

Thanks!!!


Alan

It should go from thread holder to the knob above the thread tension
then over to the bobbin holder near the wheel.
I looked on the net and coundnt find anything to send you.

Hi Pam,

I didn't find anything either and that manual we ordered and paid for
hasn't come yet and I bet we will have to wait till Monday.

I never touched a sewing machine in my life but I may have done what
you said, I don't know names of things, because it might have worked.
The bobbins wound neatly and quickly.

Thanks,

Alan

Irene, I looked and so did Pam. How did you find this link?

What the diagram shows, and I guess what Pam said, is what I did. It's
a good thing you sent the link though because without it we might not
be able to get the bobbin back.

Isn't Usenet incredible? I've been using it for almost 20
years..yikes!

Thanks so much, Alan
