Members Constabulary Posted June 30, 2019 Members Report Posted June 30, 2019 Can´t see any pictures. However - the predecessor of the 331 is the 31K and there were some subclasses with jump foot (not really a walking foot) - check Singer 31K19 or 31K47. May that's similar to what you have.

Members Ro9beam2002 Posted June 30, 2019 Author Members Report Posted June 30, 2019 Ok.. this isn't the jump foot one. Let try again Quote
Members Constabulary Posted June 30, 2019 Members Report Posted June 30, 2019 you should probably upload the pictures directly to the forum. Not sure what files you have uploaded but I cannot open them.

Moderator Wizcrafts Posted June 30, 2019 Moderator Report Posted June 30, 2019 That machine has obviously been custom built (maybe by Singer Co.?) into a dual feed walking foot machine. The shaft on the back of the bed is part of the driven outside foot. A close-up of the foot area will show better details. At best it will be a top/bottom feed walking foot. The needle would remain static, along with the inside foot. The outside foot would be pulling the work back instead of just following the material.

Members Ro9beam2002 Posted July 1, 2019 Author Members Report Posted July 1, 2019 Seems like a roller puller would have been easier to do do..maybe they wanted something more positive Quote
Moderator Wizcrafts Posted July 1, 2019 Moderator Report Posted July 1, 2019 I have one spring foot Singer in my shop: a Singer 42-5. It works fine without any teeth or positive top feed. But, the teeth on the feed dog are huge!
