I had an early 1950's model & that machine was built to LAST as were all of the machines that were built before the 1980's.

I have owned several older Kenmore machines & the older they are the better. Most Singers have a high or a slanted shank so the older Singer feet usually won't swap.

This means you can inter-change attachments & feet from one brand to another. > Also, I don't know if you know it but most Kenmore machines are 'low shank' machines as are most Brother & White (as well as Euro-Pro) machines. Also, I've had great luck going into small 'ma & pa' sewing repair stores & they have showed me simple things about my machine at no charge. I had another machine that the needle was moved with a sliding lever. My brand new Brother has a setting that places the needle on the left, but it's a computerized model & I'm sure yours is mechanical. The key is: Does the zig-zag still work with the needle in that position? If so, then just use a zig-zag foot (large hole foot) to sew straight & you should still be able to sew most everything. Make sure your stitch width is set at straight stitch. Is the needle on the left because the machine is in the 'Zig-Zag' setting? I just looked at my (early 1980's) Kenmore & when I have the stitch width turned wide then the needle will stay on the left or right, no matter what setting & type of stitch it's set on. If you need info, here's some great sewing forums you can post your question on. Also, my son was left an older machine by his grandmother when she passed on & he found out how to thread it & use it from this web site: I buy a lot of older machines at thrift shops & this site has helped me. Just click on the 'MANUAL' button at the top left of their home page. This site below is WONDERFUL! They have old & hard to get copies of manuals for sale PLUS they have free threading diagrams for lots & lots of old & new machines.
