Singer 45K - Unsual Needleplate + Feed Dog

Recommended Posts

Does someone know what purpose this needle plate and feed dog is for? I have not found them in my parts list though I think I have seen these parts before....

Will take a picture of the installed parts later.IMG_9353.thumb.JPG.2b8b5be191a8757b0e56b55ae5a821e7.JPGIMG_9354.thumb.JPG.9284083d1aa3aa2aec8ad0355c5f7050.JPG

I worked on a lot of 45's over the years & have never seen that one.It might of been custom made.I'd say it's for sewing a narrow strap or ?? it looks like 6-8 mm from the needle hole to the rightside?

sorry lad´s i only have that picture i found on the net.. no book:no: and this one...

As for that plate and feed dog folker, singer used one similar to that ( 1 set of teeth) for the 45k69 and 71. it was for sewing boots. and "did you know that it had the side wheel option like the 29k??".

you can see the thread was tensed on the post similar to the rafflenbeul,frobana sole stitchers. in the picture of the plate and feed dog you can see the part next to it is for sliding on the post to hold the thread down on the spring that goes underneath? it can be seen in the illustration also..

91794 was attached to the right of the needle plate in one of the two holes ( on a 45k21 the holes are used to attach the guide plate) and is also similar to the sole stitchers in the way that you held your threads under it to be able to start with both hands free....
