Really neat to work with.[/#008000][/font] [signature] Re: [Dryrod] Meeting Faruk Ekich - macfly55 - 12-19-2010 what I like on yours is the interchangeable bobbins.. simply fill a bobbin with your favorite thread and go for it.. if you want to change the thread you change a prefilled bobbin... :-) MacFly [cool] [signature] Re: [LeGrand] Meeting Faruk Ekich - LeGrand - 12-20-2010 Found this article on the Gentleman.
