The Singer 750 with the infamous rubber coated feed dogs... yep I bought one !! and Didn't know it...
15 bucks, if nothing else, I get a foot pedal with the hanging bracket for the knee action pedal, cabinet ect ...
after getting home,, and finding fabric won't move, but only after it had been used awhile ( warmed up )
well after the fact , I remember reading about these dogs, bigger than ____ where the guy scrap off the rubber, to find these no teeth ....
it's sunday and 50 miles to town,, so out came the mini files,,, some card paper to make shims out of .. cause the rubber is now gone, and the dogs will not set high enough...
My first try worked, but the dogs feed off to the right and would not move fabric until that was all the way under the foot, you could not just push the fabric into the needle without raising the foot ..
2nd try I make one more shim to put under the dof mount, refiled the end of the dog so it would grad sooner ....
Turns out the Hillybilly fix'm up worked !!!!
I am shocked at how well this machine works... I have a whole new out look at these 70's wonder Boxes.
The last pic is of harbour frieght files,, get some there very cheap ( 3$). I use them to fix screwed up screws. you'll be happy you did,
photo's are not good, rubber coated dog
Dog installed,, maybe you can see the home fashioned teeth
the harbour frieght files,, mainly used to fix screw heads..
