I love my Huskystar - have it for over 10 years. However, the bobbin case has started bobbing up and down now. Do you know what keeps the bobbin case snug in the machine??? I don't want to buy a new machine, just fix this one.

It looks like the Huskystar 224 needs Viking Bobbin Case #627569209. The best bet would probably be to go to your local sewing machine/vacuum shop and have them order it or let you know a reputable place to get it. Or, you could type it into Google and see what you get. Good luck replacing it!Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16495420255101853794noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5080481017788281580.post-55968800607054800992009-02-17T14:27:00.000-06:002009-02-17T14:27:00.000-06:00I was doing house cleaning and vacuumed up the ins...I was doing house cleaning and vacuumed up the inside of my bobbin.where can i get a replacement .would you call that the housing ...casing... or bobbin holder?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5080481017788281580.post-8850440455983835292009-01-20T17:32:00.000-06:002009-01-20T17:32:00.000-06:00I have that same model (Huskystar 224) and it is a...I have that same model (Huskystar 224) and it is an awesome machine! <BR/>I just recently upgraded to a newer Viking embroidery machine so my little Husky is for sale.<BR/>Anyone interested can contact me at-<BR/>wunschlos@gmail for photos. <BR/>($200 + shipping) SE Iowawunschloshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16318174336678258044noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5080481017788281580.post-30850331550129877982008-09-11T15:26:00.000-05:002008-09-11T15:26:00.000-05:00Yvette, I've gotten replacement bobbins from JoAnn...Yvette, <BR/>I've gotten replacement bobbins from JoAnn Fabrics before.

My only issue I have had with it is that once in a while it will only sew in like fast, short burst, then I have to life up on the peddle and put it back down again. After some time of sewing like that, it will go be to sewing normal, in mid stitch. I took it in, but then it started sewing normal (right of the bat).

I'm not sure that I've sewed much of anything since home ec in 6th grade - maybe something in high school - and I can't remember how to get the machine set up! (Nor do I know where my manual is).
