I have seen the dedicated left SS foot at Sew-Classics, but as the previous poster says they are for the high shank machines. Both of the left parking machines I have use the high shank feet.

Just about any of the screw on fabric guides will work on that machine. Notice the two holes to the right of the green tape in the pic of vanginney's machine above. Those are threaded for attachments. There are a bunch of styles and when properly used do not interfere with the foot. The one in the pic below is the one I use most often:

It's held to the bed with a thumb screw and is quite adjustable.

Here's another one, notice how it's cut out for the feed dogs:


Here is magnetic one made by Dritz. It's stuck to the front of the pillar under the are:


These can be had in various places. JoAnns and I'm sure other fabric shops carry the Dritz magnet ones, the one here in Springfield does, and the screw on ones are in original accessory kits by Singer, Greist, and others.

All you need do is look.
