impalanewbie Report post Posted June 5, 2010 I have a chance to buy this machine for $300 is it worth it? It has reverse but i don't know if it is a walking foot sewing machine, I will be using it for auto and marine upholstery. The lady selling it said that she bought it from a sewing factory and that they used it to sew overalls with. She also said that she had new clutches put in and new motor. I will upgrade to a sewquiet 4000 regardless. Doesn't have a manual and i do not know how to thread this machine She gave me a model number: Singer 121d 200ba is it a walking foot?

impalanewbie Report post Posted June 7, 2010 Ok so i went ahead and bought the machine for $250.00 but it has no feet attached, i didn't want to come back empty handed, being that i drove 2hrs. to get it. So.... my question is how do i thread this thing? Can i attach a walking foot to it? How do i take the head off to oil it? Sorry for all the Newbie questions!! I'll put some close up pics sometime tommorrow Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jimbob Report post Posted June 7, 2010 Hello there... I am guessing this is not a walking foot machine, u may attach a roller foot and get by to do light to medium leather....but best bet would to move ur question to the sewing machine forum...there are tons of people with great Singer knowledge...try to find Bob Kovar from Toledo Ohio....he is a sewiong machine god!!! His forum name is sewmun I think!? Hope that helps,,,,, Greetings James I have a chance to buy this machine for $300 is it worth it?
