does anyone have recommendations for a supplier that will carry thread, bobbins and maybe small parts? Hopefully in the US?

I know I need M size bobbins, and a tensioner nut so far!

Thanks Diane

Thanks...thats where we are heading. there is a 280-L stamped on the bottom. Itdoes take M bobbins...is it recommended to wind your own or are the pre-wounds acceptable for these machines? I use the magna-glides in my embroidery machines and like very much...any suggestions or preferred supplieirs?

thanks Diane

Thanks! Love your handle :lol: ..I am looking around and new possibilities are running around in my head! Many of my car guys want leather/vinyl cases for EVERYTHING!! and all with their logos embroidered on it. My small home machine isn't practical, so I have stepped up my game. Sure hope there isn't a large learning curve!

I just found your forum! I have an embroidery business where when I am not stitching for a customer, I am able to digitize designs for customers around the world. I started out at Ford's then went private. My favorite niche in life is cars! Classics, muscle, lifted..all of them!! I also have come across the need for some leather and vinyl work. Customers that LOVE their wheels need all kinds of embroidered accessories. My husband surprised me with a Chandler C-241 over Christmas. There isn't much info on this machine and hopefully someone knows what I now have. We are cleaning and oiling it up, I know I need 1 thumb screw for the top tensioner but so far pretty clean. We found pic of a Juki 280L that looks just like it, so are moving on with searching for that. I am hoping someone knows of this machine and can steer me in the right direction!!

Thank you,

the first machine is mine, the 2nd Juki is one I found online..everything looks the same. Then I tossed in a few cars!
