Reliable place to buy Featherweight bobbins, needles and greese
I really want to start using my new to me featherweight.
I have 3 bobbins with it but know I will need more.
I goggled for bobbins and found several..
including some that didn't even look like the right bobbin..LOL
I am new to all of this and want to get the right bobbins & ect.
Either post or direct email would be great [email protected]

NEEDLES:
Needle system: 15x1
On needle packages you'll find this info:
Singer: 2020 (15x1), 2026 Denim/Jeans, 2045 Ball Points
Schmetz: 130/705H 15x1H
Organ: HAx1 130/705H 15x1
Available almost everywhere. We get ours at JoAnn Fabrics when they have a 50% off sale.
BOBBINS:
Sew-Classic: { http://www.shop.sew-classic.com/ }
Nova Montgomery's: { http://www.novamontgomery.com/ }
April 1930's: { http://www.april1930s.com/html/singe...bin_parts.html }
Others as well. Once you study them, you'll be able to recognize which are the right ones.
GREASE:
The only grease I know of that currently available for Singer motors is this one sold by Nova Montgomery's:
{ http://www.novamontgomery.com/shop/S...t-x4312153.htm }
The white grease Singer sells now isn't the same as the old Motor Lube and I don't know if it will work or not in motors. I'm not willing to risk damaging my motors to find out.
Here's a thread we did about the Nova Montgomery's grease not long ago:
