Singer Sewing Machine Fashion Cams (With ring gear stl)

thingiverse

These are brand new, untested clones of vintage Singer sewing machine cams. UPDATE: Cams 31 and 37 are needle-breakers - only use at 50% width! Being unable to find these anywhere, and Chinese clones going for between $10 and $20 each, motivation was high to create some open-source jobs. I'd love it if you guys and gals can test these and let me know which ones need work. I have plans to make a few custom ones of my own too. See the video for details on the initial design and testing process. Bonus: Bobbin drive ring gear STL is also included, not perfect but will get you out of a jam. I have tested type 1 (zigzag) cam on Singer model 527 - which is not specifically designed to have interchangeable cams, but will take these. There are a couple missing in the series as I have been unable to get quality scans of them or find a sample anywhere - feel free to send me a flatbed scan of any you'd like me to make. CAUTION! If printed on a properly configured machine, these will be a tight fit - as I designed them for laser cutting and exploited the beam width of the machine, you may want to add 1% to the size - let me know in the comments how you go. Singer models that these are supposed to be compatible with: 527* (the model used to test these - not designed to be changed easily), 306, 319, 238, 240, 248, 258, 316, 320, 338, 348, 360, 418, 477, 478, 514, 518, 538, 818, 838, 1730, and 1800.
