I buy the Superior prewounds for my BabyLock on my quilting frame, because it takes a large bobbin and it's a pain to wind the bobbin on the machine when it is connected to the stitch cruise control.
Anyway, they come with cardboard disc sides, not plastic. When done, I throw them away.

I use them in my Viking - the Viking dealer was able to tell me which "letter", or size to use. I have even used them successfully in my 1914 Singer treadle! Love them, they seem to last forever. I just throw out the empty bobbins.

Thanks,

They did make a machine with a spool placement in the bobbin area. I have one - it's a treadle. It called the Eldredge or National two spools. I don't know how many or for how long this machine was made but it's interesting to play with it. I'll see if I have a picture of mine. ~ Chris
