Singer 66 vs 201 or 15-91 feed dog height.
Is it me or does it appear that the feed on the 66 rises slightly higher than the feed on the 201 and 15-91?
I was skeptical when I found my 201. I thought the feed looked too low to make proper contact with the medium to be sewn. Same with the 15. However I have never worried about the 66, the feed seems to rise a little higher...anyone else notice this?

Hmm, I've never thought to look and see if there are differences in feed dog height between any of my machines. I *think* the dogs should be at the same height though. Have you checked them with a guage?

I don't look at the feed like that unless it gives me a reason to look so I don't have a clue. I have a friend that is really up in all of that or likes to check each machine she gets for it, yet I have sewn for too many years to count and if it doesn't give me any problems I don't check it out. This isn't a problem for lots of machines, but some times I suppose you would run into it where you would have to fix one.
