This machine is one that needs the white zig zag cam in it to do zig zag sewing.

I have a Montgomery Ward machine with one metal zz cam... I don't know what fits but the odd box of cams marked Montgomery Ward does not fit.

You're welcome. I also added more pics and descriptive blah blah to the 222 thread.

Miriam,
My friend says the metal zig zag cam doesn't sound familiar to him. He also says there were at least 4 different styles of cams used in MW machines. Sorry I wasn't much help.

AS I wrote way back when in this thread I have some cams. Now am in Florida but I have a big problem. My camera program now does not work on my computer which used to be so easy to transfer. For Christmas 2015
I was given some new equipment so now I have to learn it then I might be able to post photo's. I hope-- but I want to get back to sewing then I do nothing else . Will do my best to get learning the method.

Well, Cari I only have 3 to go...

I finally have the machine that goes with the cams that I rescued in November of 2014. I had found that they belonged with an Emdeko. The case was kind of warped and I set it under a pile of books to try to flatten it. At some point I put a note in with the cams that possibly they might also fit a Kenmore 158.37 but I can't figure out where I came up with that number. John and I went to GW today. John had the top off the case and was looking at it. As soon as I saw the name on it and opened the flap for where the cams go, I went to get a buggy. I haven't tried to sew with it. John tested the motor and controller. The controller is messed up. Easy fix, as I have a spare. So here are the pictures:
