Uwe is correct it will tend to give you problems with #207.We used to sell them new years ago & had a customer come in wanting one for nylon halters & using #207,I showed him what we had & he didn't want to spend $5,000.00 on a new Adler & pointed to the Juki 241,I said we can try the thread & see what happens but I didn't recommend it for a long term.He says just to get started then go to a bigger machine,I told him he pushing it & might have problems.We I sewed on it ,it worked great.He bought it & was back in less than a week,he jammed it up.I guess he didn't hold the thread.We fixed it & showed him again how to hold the threads when first start.He came back maybe 3 wks later & broke the hook on it.So now he starting to understand what I told him & bought a Singer 97-10 for the large thread & kept this for the chaps & thinner sewing. Moral of story it's best to get the right machine for the job your doing or you'll end up spending more later . The only problem with the model 241 is it doesn't have a bobbin case opener like Juki's newer model 1541S has & that helps prevent the machine from jamming up esp when your using large thread otherwise when you use #138 or thinner on this machine it should give you years of trouble-free service.

Most of the questions are answered here.http://www.tolindsewmach.com/cb2500.html

Yes,there are pedals that fit that style of leg.

I've never done this on the 107 BUT you could drill a hole in it to use the #12361 hinge pins,I'm pretty sure there's enough thickness there to allow for a hole,it would easier than modifying the table(which I've done before & it doesn't look pretty)

Hello, I haven't seen that plate...YET ! LOL

Yes,we have them in stock.

Rick, Those are built like a 31-15,it's pretty hard to find one that nice looking!

The 331 doesn't have a scarf.

Try to tighten the bobbin tension screw 1/4 turn @ a time & keep test sewing each time & it'll get better.

Here's a parts manual http://parts.singerco.com/IPpartCharts/29K51_53_55_56.pdf

I really doubt if you'll find any manual that tells you how to do this.It is pretty easy though.Take the screw out of the drive rod & then there's 2-screws under the gearbox that holds it on.Do you know the gears for this machine aren't available?

Yes,try tightening the bobbin tension alittle should help.Do you need or want to sew 5 oz? What happens when your sewing thin is it's hard to not see the knot because the leather so thin for the thread size,it would also help to go to a smaller size in the bobbin than on top.

7x1 or 7x3 are round points,7x2 or 7x4 are leather point & either should work in your machine.

Sounds like a great deal !!

The CB0797 is a great machine BUT it isn't one I like to sell for finished leather products because it has feed dogs on it that can mark the bottomside of your leather.The CB3200 as stated will use a thicker thread & is made for sewing leather since it has a smooth feed dog so you don't have to worry about scratching or marking the leather.

The flatbed version is a model # 78.

Yes,we always use & stock the #240558 because it has a better hook guard on it(thicker steel)

The hook parts will be the same as a newer style 111w,some other parts like for the walking feet are no longer available for this model. Here's a list for the hook partshttp://parts.singerco.com/IPpartCharts/111W152.pdf

Being a Consew dealer myself I want to let you know they only sell parts to their dealers.When they get calls from someone they'll let you know the closest one to you.

The Singer 18 is good for thin leather to 1/4" maybe 5/16 & only has a bottom feed that can leave marks.

Y Yes,really @ that price you can't lose.

Sometimes you get what you pay for,we have ordered cheap parts like feet & in a few months time when we went to use them they were corroded, didn't fit properly or so brittle they broke when you tightened the foot.

If you want them sooner we do have all 4 parts in stock for $68.50 + 6.80 priority mail.

I bought some polyester thread 10 yrs ago that was wrapped in plastic & in a box & it was dated 1987 & we still have a few spools left & it is still strong thread.Nylon thread seems to loose its strength as it gets older.We had some that we've had to throw away that was 12 yrs old,but different manufactures & this could of been in a window .

No,you want the belt to have about 1" of play,if it slips it's too loose & will wear it out quickly.
