Source for blank feet/feed dogs?

Photo says what 100 diagrams won't. That's saved me a lot of guessing. The last step will be to find if the 205 plate and dog will fit. The other thing I'm up to here is getting that dog in the middle so I can sew down the middle of a "rope".

Hackish,

That't called a bolt rope foot, nobody sells them, but can be made up by custom attachment guys.

I put it in quotes because it breaks at about 2500 lbs and it just doesn't feel right to call it "string". If I need to, I can grind teeth and machine feet as needed but some of my lines are thin enough they need that middle row.

Is there any chance you'd have a plate and feet for a straight walking foot you could test fit to that machine? Having the dogs under the 205 feet is needed. I'd be quite happy to buy a package with all the pieces.

not sure but maybe you can make something out of Singer 31-19 or 132K piping feet cause the have a very low shank and can probably be attached to some sort of DIY foot adapter - or so - dunu - just a wild idea.

I´m sure you can find the feet in the US as well...

Thanks, constabulary, I looked but unfortunately it's far from what I need. The 205RB foot Gregg posted is exactly the piece I need. At most, I might grind a small ridge in the bottom of the inside foot, but a normal flat bottom worked just fine on my 20U and I did it for years. I really just need to know if the 205 feed dog and plate also fits. I'll post up some photos later today if I sew some more.

I'll get on that, too.  Give me a day or two and I'll report back on the setup.

Gregg, if they fit then you should put them into a box addressed to me rather than back on your shelf.
