Walking foot for a Singer 99k and a 15-90 clone
I tried using a walking foot on these machines and the machine seemed to lock up or something. I googled it and on one page it said they have a built in walking foot? Also does the 15-90 have a built in darning foot too? I've been reading this forum on old machines and got those two in the last yr. lol. I just don't halfway know how to thread or sew on them!
Any help is appreciated!
Thanks,
Debbie

It sounds as if you don't have the right walking foot for these machines. They would take a low-shank foot such as this one:

They would not take this one:

The vintage machines did not have built-in anything! Darning foot is a separate foot, as is the walking foot.
