Bernina 850 / 950 Twin Needle Clamp Needlebar Attachment
Bernina's Industrial 850 and 950 sewing machines are twin needle capable, but because they use industrial needles, with round shanks, no flat side, there are no industrial twin needles available for them, you MUST have the Bernina 850/950 twin needle clamp needlebar attachment, in order to use twin needles on these very popular sewing machines, which are used mainly in professional shops, and by costumers, tailors, dressmakers, alteration experts, fashion designers, bridal shops, and similar professional sewing shops.

When we first began Googling Bernina 950 twin needle attachment we only found ads for twin needles, and people looking for the instructions for how to use this attachment, but no ads, no photos, instructions, or information, so I've taken photos, edited them to make the details visible, and when we finally found an "out of stock" seller, in the UK, we finally have a part number! #30408203
Hopefully, linking this to Pinterest, and sharing it, will make this hard to find part, easier to find!
If I find instructions for it, or other details, I will add them to this post. If you have the instruction, and/or how to install this on your Bernina, please share them, maybe even make a YouTube tutorial!
