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.

Miriam I have a friend who has quite a few MW machines, I'll ask him about that.

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.

Default Emdeko cams

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:
