Members MackProvisions Posted Monday at 07:46 PM Members Report Posted Monday at 07:46 PM I make baseball gloves. I mostly use this Pfaff 471. The bobbin is on the left side of the needle and I feed the thread from right to left. I’m wondering if anyone has ever rotated the post so the bobbin is on the right side. Looks like there’s mounting hardware to the bed and maybe possible to do but want to see if anyone in the sewing world has ever attempted this. Might require using a donor machine… but just trying to wrap my head around doing this. Quote
Members Constabulary Posted Monday at 08:26 PM Members Report Posted Monday at 08:26 PM check the parts list of your machine and the one with a right side hook post (not sure maybe its the 491) and compare the parts numbers - thats the best bet. If the part numbers are all identical then you may have luck but I doubt it is a good idea. I´d look for a new machine. My 2 cents. 😉 Quote ~ Keep "OLD CAST IRON" alive - it´s worth it ~ Machines in use: - Singer 111G156 - Singer 307G2 - Singer 29K71 - Singer 212G141 - Singer 45D91 - Singer 132K6 - Singer 108W20 - Singer 51WSV2 - Singer 143W2
