It is bottom and needle feed machine. Not a walking foot. #138 thread is about the heaviest it will use. 135 x 17 needle system Size 24 about the heaviest it will handle. They say #25 in the book but not easy to find and a big needle for #138 thread. You can get parts. They are out there. may be Consew or Juki parts.

Answers 1. 1295 uses the same feet as a 1245. Also same bobbin case and bobbin. 2. when you replace the Efka with a servo, get the smallest pulley you can on the servo. 45-50mm8" maximum 3. depending on the hardness of the leather, 3//8" about the most. 4. great machines. The 1295 was the best walking foot post in it's class for may years. 5. US $1,500.00 is a good price. I have a 1295 with all the toys! Yours is set up for binding! That is a honey colored one from the mid to late 1980's glenn

You can get parts from Seiko or Consew that should in most cases fit. No parts from Singer.

thanks Jimi for the update. glenn

Please keep us posted as you rebuild it. Nice machines. I have had one of these. glenn

Where do you get needles for this machine? Anybody know who sells them? glenn

that cover should fit!! glenn

I would also try the clones for the 1341. Those caps should work. glenn

There has to be a way to move the left saddle for the hook. Take the left hook out and send us a few close ups of the left saddle. glenn

Machines that fit the bill: Older machine Adler 205 and clones Juki 441 and clones Cowboy 3200 Artisan 3200 need more specifics thread size, arm length,

Let me check. The red paint does not look cool in my opinion. I will check this weekend. Too busy today. glenn

You also need a drip pan unless you plan to get oil on your knees while stitching. glenn

Looks like a narrow throat champion needle and awl stitcher.

Anybody got a copy of an operations manual to a Singer 132K6. All I have is the parts list. Thanks. glenn miller

Should be able to. Binders normally built to specs.

Can you send us a video on you threading the machine? We might be able to tell something from that. glenn

Contact Luke At MJ Foley. He should be able to get you the bar in either genuine or generic. They were and are still Pfaff dealers. glenn

I have done the same with most of my machines C including the new DA669. I have not problems. glenn

The smallest needle size that will accommodate #138 thread is #22/140. A size #20 needle will not sew #138 thread! If you are using a #160 needle, you have to enlarge the hole on the feed dog and move the hook as to left and right. I did this on my Pfaff335 and the machine sewed fine on materials. However, I do not sew veg tan leather on this machine! glenn

Those were the last Singer shoepatchers made at the Kilbowie plant. Production moved to Japan and the U series after that until about 1985. glenn

That machine has not been built in at least 70 years. parts are not easy to come by. A few people on the is forum have some parts. Probably better luck in England finding parts. glenn

It should handle depending on how hard the leather is. glenn

The large balance wheel looks like what Ferdco used> glenn
