Here's our table with needle and thread sizes (in pdf format), you can download and print it out:

As for parts, there are a number of posters on these boards that should have them.

I've worked on alot of this model over the yrs & they won't handle leather very good,they always seem to have a weak,slow running motor.

It is hard to change it too.Look for the old black Singers w/a small can type motor & the bobbin goes in underneath,these will sew someleather & take 46 & even # 69 thread.

Thank you very much, I will pass it by and find one that is dependable. I do not have any preference on who makes them just want something that I can sew leather up to a max of about 1/4".
