mooshi Report post Posted September 26, 2009 I saw a video on youtube for doing circular sewing. What kind of foot is it? I don't know all the feet yet on sewing machines especially on industrial sewing machines. Here is the link for the video: Mooshi Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SteveBrambley Report post Posted September 27, 2009 (edited) I saw a video on youtube for doing circular sewing. What kind of foot is it? I don't know all the feet yet on sewing machines especially on industrial sewing machines. Here is the link for the video: Mooshi That's a standard, multi-purpose presser foot that is fitted to most alternating foot, compound feed machines. It looks like the smaller, right hand 'toe' has been ground off, to enable the guide to be closer to the work. I use this type of presser on most of my leather work, although there are better, made for the purpose, leather pressers available.

Trevor Report post Posted September 30, 2009 This is a foot as Steve rightly said used to get real close to the edge of the work being sewn. ie Some people call them ZIP feet where they can sew a zip in place easliy without the machine having to walk all over the zipping. Can be helpful to have one of each (Left and right) in your box of bits for when you need it. The other tool he had attatched to his macine was a drop down edge guide roller. He could then sew at reasonable speed without worrying about the stitches being not straight. Cheers Trevor "way down Under" Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
