Members Googledave Posted January 7, 2021 Members Report Posted January 7, 2021 Hi all, where can I get a legitimate well made needle bar? I bought one off of eBay in desperation. I installed it and the needle hole is not plumb from the factory s I can’t center the needle in the vibrating presser foot left to right so when sewing , the thread frays on the foot. Thank you all in advance! Quote
Moderator Wizcrafts Posted January 8, 2021 Moderator Report Posted January 8, 2021 I have an equivalent machine, a Techsew 2700. Both are clones of the Singer 153 series walking foot cylinder arm machines. When I needed a replacement needle bar, I called Toledo Industrial Sewing Machines. Bob Kovar advised me that these machines all use the same needle bar as the Singer 153. I ordered one from him and it fit perfectly. I had no issue with an off center needle hole. Yours must be the luck of the draw. Quote
