And the many other models that fall into the Stylist Line, including the Diana 560J
The far right is a 457, Singer sold a lot of these machines, and for what they did, they worked
pretty darn good.  One of my favorites is the 534.  A great freearm unit, that just purred, came
out around 1978 - 79 if I recall.

172336 - 66 Class Plastic Bobbins - pack of 10 - Fits:
All Stylist Series machine - 66 Class - Slant-O-Matic - Fashion Mates with drop in bobbin
Update: 1/21/07 - just tried some of these in one of my machines - If you have problems with them let me know, they may require a
little fine tuning yet.  Mine were sticking in the bobbin case, not spinning smoothly - needed to take a little off the edge of them
Item Is Pending removal due to defective performance - if you ordered, or order - let me know how they work.  This was in an
Apollo Bobbin Case System, may be fine in a Metal Bobbon Case like the Slant-O-Matics

I did my own gears on my stylist 534 with Terry's instructions and I had no problems at all.  I
did lay all the parts on a tray with a towel on it, so I put it back together in the same order I
took it apart.  A small flashlight to see into tight spots and some uninterrupted time to spend
on my machine was very helpful.  I say go for it. Forget the repair guy.  I did this myself
after sending it to the shop one year to have gears done. They only did one and charged me
$110.  I even asked them to replace the other one if it looked bad.The next year the gear that
meshed with the first one died. No way was I spending that kind of money for another gear. I
take better care of my own machine, thanks to Terry and the help of this group.
