Members Constabulary Posted November 17, 2020 Members Report Posted November 17, 2020 And what in particular did not fit? The needle into the holder or the parts? If the 112w139 gauge set needle holder is dedicated for 126x3 needles and 135x17 do not fit I would try a needle holder from a Singer 212 needle feed machine. They for sure take 135x17 as they have the same shank diameter as the original needle system and as mentioned before maybe changing out the needle bar as well. Thats at least what I would try. A while ago I played with gauge sets a little bit. Maybe some is interested: https://leatherworker.net/forum/topic/80209-singer-212-112-double-needle-converting-into-split-needle/ Quote ~ Keep "OLD CAST IRON" alive - it´s worth it ~ Machines in use: - Singer 111G156 - Singer 307G2 - Singer 29K71 - Singer 212G141 - Singer 45D91 - Singer 132K6 - Singer 108W20 - Singer 51WSV2 - Singer 143W2
