    Question. Why would anyone be placing a metal bobbin into a plastic bobbin race. That is an excellent way to score and damage that nylon plastic. Those bobbins are designed to work with either a metal bobbin rotary or metal oscillating race machine. I destroyed my race on my HD3000 and needed to replace it, and was read the riot act by a technician a few years ago. Figured someone with your clear sewing experience should know about how metal bobbins can damage the interior of a soft nylon race.

      @mysteria3038 Your mechanic wants you to gouge the soft nylon plastic in your bobbin race? Metal bobbins are designed to work in two types of machines. Front loading oscillating bobbins, and the fully metal Singer machines from the 1950's to the 1970's that have a metal horizontal rotary bobbin race. You really should never put metal against plastic. Metal will always win. If your machine loads from the front, and has a metal case, or the top and has a metal race, your mechanic is right to tell you that. If you have a nylon race, like this Janome does, you will ruin that race via gouging. It's also not designed to work with a metal bobbin. This is why they started making acrylic bobbins in the late 1970's (possibly even sooner) for class 15, Pfaff, Bernina and Singer class 66 bobbins. Their weight is calculated into the machine's setup so that when thread is feeding upwards, the bobbin runs light and smooth. A heavier load, such as with a metal bobbin is prone to jamming, gouging and snapping in that setup. You may have been lucky, but that may not last, and you might find yourself with a gouged nylon bobbin race. Look at your manual. If in doubt, contact Janome. Seriously. And all these people are replying with the same message...don't put metal in a nylon bobbin holder/race.

    I was looking for a video that explained the two slide levers on the upper right of a similar machine that I am considering to add to my machine collection and I happened to come across this video. I've been sewing for 50 years and is very comfortable with almost all sewing machines. This instructor is very good. From the first couple of videos that I saw, she teaches it the way I learned it from formal sewing instructors if my youth. It's good to see this skill being passed on. Her instructions are clear. The only difference I see is how she does her gathering instructions. I was taught not to tie off at either end allowing me to pull the thread to gather from either ends of both parallel threads, because sometimes the thread could break on you. I would also recommend talking about quality threads verses less quality threads, especially if the thread keeps breaking while you sew (quality threads make a world of difference). Carry on, you're doing great!

    For those who may be having difficulties getting the bobbin thread loop to work, you may have to press the foot pedal and let the machine cycle a few times before it catches. I tried the hand threading method described both here and in the manual and it would not catch the bobbin thread in one or even two tries. It was only after I cycled the machine a few times with the foot pedal that it grabbed hold to create the loop.

    This machine has a horizontal bobbin case, so probably has a magnetized ring around the oil wick hole, so metal bobbins should not be used.

    Hi There. I'm really new to using a Serger. I understand that we serge the edge of woven fabric before we sew a garment, and this takes the place of doing a Stay Stitch or an Edge Stitch on the sewing machine. May I ask, if we are taking off a MM by serging the edge, do I need to add an extra MM to the side seam before cutting a pattern? Thanks!!! xox
