iso a screw for Ferdinand 900b

[Old Coach Saddlery]

I am searching for the screw for the 900b presser foot. I have 2 of my own machines but this is for the one at my work. I took one of mine down to the local hardware store. 4mm to small and 5mm to big. Almost threaded in the 10x32 but not quite right. I will call Tony Luberto if I have to. I was hoping someone would have the right answer.

Hoffman Brothers in Chicago?  They handle the Ferdco machines.

Call Campbell Randall they’re familiar with these machines! If it’s like mine, it’s based off of a Seiko!

No call backs for weeks! I felt like I was stalking them, calling every couple days!

I have heard that about Hoffman Brothers. My machine is based off a Consew 794R. I have a screw coming from another manufacturer that I hope will work.

Let's try to figure this out using JavaScript expressions...

Function (H.B.) {

  If {they were closed, or short on help, due to the Pandemic when you called} {call again | send email}

  Else {too busy in the shop to answer phone, email, or voice messages} {give up}

}

JavaScript is a plain text programming language for websites that are interpreted by your web browser when you load a web page. They permit things to change on demand, like text size, or to open and close drop down navigation menus, or to highlight a particular amount of text, or to tell you how many characters are left in a text input box. There is much more that we do with JavaScript, but those are some common functions. The layout I used is typical of JavaScript "functions."

No, still have terrible service! I ordered $477.00 in presser feet for a new to me Juki 2000 Bull and they’re significantly shorter! Been waiting several weeks on a resolution! No calls or replies to emails!

Far left is what was on my machine! The two middle toes matched...

Can't you lower the presser bar and live with the shorter outside foot?

I don’t want to have to change things every time I switch feet???

I wonder if Cowboy cb4500 feet will fit it and reach far enough forward? I can send you my spare foot if you want to try it.

I’m sure any Juki setup will fit, I was just wanting to keep it Ferdco...
