Based on serial number it shows to be a Series 31 but I've bought numerous bobbin hooks for a 31-15 and they are slightly too large and are binding when turning the hand wheel. Any help would be appreciated. TIA https://studio.shootproof.com/v3/297736/gallery/24350194Singer Pic
I split your post off the old thread you had tagged onto. When looking for something like this, start a new thread.
Also post pictures here, not on 3rd party hosts.

1 hour ago, stampingdelight said:k thanks so just ask leather work questions in these topic area
Lots of topic areas (forums). Pick the ones that seem to fit and fire away! Descriptions of each on the home page.
There's also the forum, How do I do that? Some of the posts get moved into other forums they fit into.

Unfortunately, guests can't post photos, so will have to put their photos on a 3rd party host.

Fixed the stickies referred to. Most web connections now want a secure connection. So http has to be changed to https, the s for secure.

@goaninmumbai You have a query, see above.

3 hours ago, UpstateSCBill said:when I open the thread and click on a link I get a message saying the topic is no longer available
Unfortunately, some items disappear off the web. We have no control over that. That being said, there have been a number of forum software upgrades over the years, and along with that, changes to internet protocols and browsers.
I just had a look at the top pinned item. Further down in the posts, the original URL was fixed. I just copied that into the first post. The person's own website is not available, and I can't fix that.
As you find some of these problems, message me, and I'll see if I can fix broken links on this site, or recover from other sources. It's not going to happen all at once as I have a life of my own to live. I have fixed quite a number in the past. Maybe more in the future.

It was obvious you were referring to hand stitching and maybe you thought this forum was all about hand stitching. I was letting you know that it included machine stitching too. No problem.

I see a parts list at https://www.supsew.com/search-results/?wpfb_s=46k46
But no instruction manual. Further above in this thread, @Constabulary said he has one of these machines. Maybe he has more information that can help you.

23 minutes ago, KeriHat said:Would you know anything about how to put the thread guide pin/post back on the machine?
The pin must be slightly tapered. Put some fingernail polish on it, tap it into place - gently. Clean any oil off the pin and out of the hole first before applying fingernail polish (or other retaining compound such as Loctite - various formulations like Loctite 290 thread locker).
EDIT: Do you have a manual for your machine? Lots of manuals online for 20U33.
Just looked at my 20U33. It doesn't have a pin. My machine is blue, from about 1975 if I remember right.

@KeriHat The check spring is adjusted by rotating the assembly to the desired position before you tighten the retaining screw. Do a search for setting the check spring.

It is the reaction between iron and tannin, same as used to make vinegaroon if you would like to look that up.
Keep all iron filings off your work space!
You may be able to bleach it out using oxalic acid (teaspoon full in a pint of water) or wood bleach, or barkeeps friend (which all contain oxalic acid. Rinse after to reduce the acid left in the leather.
