That sounds great. PM sent.
I want to see this stuff used rather than sit in my sewing box and not have a lot of chance to ever get used!

The spring thing (first pic) might have come from a ruffler, or something like it.
I would definitely believe that it might be the cam follower you mention. It doesn't appear to be for any of the Singer machines I have here (it's not chromed, and it's smaller and shaped differently than the ones here, but I can see the resemblance. I will keep the nuts with it I guess.
I forgot to mention. When I found the spring, it was wrapped in tissue paper, separate from the rest of the parts. I want to say it came with the box of (greist) feet with the FW, but I'm not 100% positive on that...

Hah! Thanks for this! That Black plastic piece isn't part of that same set, is it? I suppose that because I don't have the whole set, and if I bought a set I'd get these pieces, I might as well recycle it (them)?
