Title: Bobbin
Post by: SteveA on September 03, 2017, 11:46:43 am
Down to the last bobbin case for my 31-15 Singer.  When I look on line some sites state genuine singer case - others state only they it will fit the 31 - 15 class.  What is the best way or from whom to purchase the right part.  Is after market OK or genuine part the only way to go ?
Thanks,
SA

I've never bought parts for a 31-15. But I've bought lots of parts for other machines here:

I've always bought generic parts. Never had any trouble. Doesn't have to be genuine Singer.

I too buy from sharp sewing the company Dennis' link sends you. I've had good luck with them.

That was easy - two clicks on sharp's site and their on their way - plus free shipping

I too use sharp for a lot of parts. When I start getting into needing hooks or needle bars or other specialized parts then I call Bob Kovar.

For all the generic stuff I use Sharp.
