Check with local sewing machine repair people. They usually keep a stock of parts for different machines. The old sewing machine guys are getting fewer and fewer, though and harder to find........

PM me with a picture of what you need and I'll check my inventory of worn out $5 sewing machines to see if I can help you out.

Thanks for the web site. None of the feed dogs are the right one. I've called all over the state of Michigan e mailed and there are none to be found. I do appreciate you help. Thanks again.

Have you been on the vintage site here. Someone may have one. Also try ebay etc where people sell a machine for parts.

My only suggestion if to check Ebay for a used White 955, or maybe one White's models that uses the same part. It should be pretty cheap because of its age.

I have an older Viking that I did this, so I have plenty of machines for parts. However, they all work. I rotate them to keep the insides working though. I have one machine that still has the basic parts, but is a newer model.
