Members leanne12 Posted May 25, 2022 Members Report Posted May 25, 2022 I bought a Consew 226R clone last year and it came with one bobbin that measures about 31/32mm in diameter and 14mm in height. I would really like to buy some more bobbins for different colours but I can't find this style of bobbin anywhere. I'm based in Europe and would like to buy them online. Is this a particularly unusual size or am I just looking in the wrong places? Thanks in advance for your help! Quote
Members 327fed Posted May 25, 2022 Members Report Posted May 25, 2022 I think that is a G bobbin. Look at thread exchange. Quote

Members Marcremb Posted May 25, 2022 Members Report Posted May 25, 2022 On my Singer 144 W, the bobbins are jumbo bobbins and they are expensive.( horizontal hook, top load) When i sold my Juki lu 563, i tried the bobbins that have smaller diameter and width then the 144W and they work perfectly without any issues with an under bobbin spring The most important thing is that they have the same diameter center hole and the spring under it. https://www.cafr.ebay.ca/itm/10-bobbin-tension-spring-for-Brother-LT2-B835-5-148601-001-/142759961730?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&_trksid=p2349624.m46890.l6249&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0 Quote
Members Garyak Posted May 26, 2022 Members Report Posted May 26, 2022 I think I paid 25$ for 10 m style bobbins for my 145w204. Every sewing site I stalk carry’s them. Price seems similar to the UK. I wonder who’s shipping is more costly. Pretty sure they ship from South Asia. I’m having a hard time finding needle gauge sets. When I found some I knew would fit, 1300$. Quote

Members shoepatcher Posted May 26, 2022 Members Report Posted May 26, 2022 A normal 226 Consew uses a G bobbin. If yours is 31-32mm in dia., that is an xxl size from an Adler 867. glenn Quote
Members SARK9 Posted May 27, 2022 Members Report Posted May 27, 2022 (edited) Here is an odd one for your consideration- I do not have any info on which manufacturer uses this, but at least it has a name. -DC Edited May 27, 2022 by SARK9 wrong image Quote
