You know, some of those parts for 221's are the same for some of the other machines. But if you ask for a "221" part, the dealers/sellers jack the price. My local sew shop wanted $65 for a replacement terminal block for my 221. I checked with Billy, and found out that the terminal block is the same as for the 15's, 66's, etc. So I found a local $10 donor machine..... and guess what? lol. I have an original Singer part for my 221. <grin>
