ryano; I think the presser foot that I need is #58929 ( toe at left of needle). Would this foot be the one needed for use with a stirrup plate?

ryano; My computer has been down for a few days so I have not been able to keep up on your progess. Sounds like you are getting a handle on the old stitcher. If I can be of any more help just holler. Let me know of your progress on the additional plates and feet. Mike

Hope these pictures will work.

ryano, Sent you a pm w/pictures of the cam. Not sure if I did it right or not. I also have a copy of the owners manual and the parts list. I would like to know a price for the stirrup plate and foot. I'll also try to post two pictures here.

Hello: I have been reading your post about the 97-10. Just wanted to tell you that I have been using one since 1994. I have not found anything that it cant sew. Have used it to sew saddle bronc inside leathers( sole bend, high density polyethelen ,nylon webbing,and skirting leather all together) , single layer skirting ,and light headstalls. I use a 26 round point needle instead of the 27 chisle point. It seems to make a prettier stitch with the 26. The machine has been used to build 50+ saddles and hundreds of other items and the only thing I have ever done to it is keep it oiled. The one thing that I wish it had is a stirrup foot and plate. Well just wanted to let you know there is still at least one saddle maker that is still using the 97-10. Mike
