My first post, so go easy on me... :) While I'm not working with leather, you guys are the best site I've found for these machines.

I recently acquired a 31-15 and am in the process of cleaning it up to use. This is replacing my Singer Touch-n-Sew 628 so I can leave it set up for lighter duty jobs. I will be setting this one up to work with thin nylon webbing and lightweight nylon fabrics.

I will have to replace the missing slide plate, and was looking up the presser foot, etc while I was searching. Here's my problem: I can't find this presser foot anywhere, and the pictures I find online don't match what I have. Can anyone shed light on what I have and what I should get? First picture is an end view of the machine with the foot attached. Second is a closeup of the foot off the machine.

Many thanks.

This is not the original foot for the 31K machine. This is a foot for a Singer 111w needle feed machine. Seems someone turned the presser foot bar for 45° and mounted this foot.

This is how the original foot should look:

Sweet. At least now I know this particular thing isn't a sign of me going nuts! Have read a bunch of stuff in the manuals and online and just couldn't find that foot.

I'll get it turned around and a proper foot ordered. Thank you!
