Default zigzag extension ?

I saw this video on youtube. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qVYUBe0DtiY

It has a zigzag extension (160620) for a singer 201.

Can I use this extension, if I can get hold on one, on my 15k27.
I would love to have zigzag on my hand-crank machine.

The link doesn't work - it should be https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qVYUBe0DtiY
and there is another zigzag attachment youtube video at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bNswoF0cGNQ



There were several Singer zigzag attachments made for straight stitch low shank machines. Some did decorative stitches with cams. I believe some of the automatic zigzag attachments were for straight stitch slant shank machines. Greist made some as well that will work on the old Singer machines. I have heard that the Swiss zigzag attachments work a little better, but many have said they weren't all that impressed with the zigzag attachments.

Here are some links to various Singer zigzag attachments

You will need to make sure that the attachment is for a low shank - side clamp machine. Greist also made a zigzag attachment for top clamp machines, as seen at Need Help Identifying Kenmore/Griest Attachment.

ok.

If you can't move the needle than move the fabric.

No that is not my way of zigzag.

Thank you for the answers.
