Singer Automatic Zigzagger Demonstration and How-To Tutorial
Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль
Today I’ll be demonstrating the Singer Automatic Zigzagger vintage sewing machine attachment. Use this attachment in place of your regular presser foot to convert a straight-stitch-only sewing machine into a zigzagger. This particular zigzagger is a 1950s model for straight shank sewing machines. The manual advertises it for the Class 15, 201, 221, and 1200 sewing machines, but I had no problem hooking it up to my Singer Class 66 sewing machine. You can zig zag, you can blind stitch, and more with this handy attachment.
This video will show you how to attach it to your machine, how to change the width of the stitches, how to flip between regular plain sewing stitches and the decorative ones without removing the attachment, and how to switch the Stitch Pattern cams. So handy! If you want the stability of the vintage straight stitch sewing machines and the versatility of a zig zag sewing machine, this is the foot for you!

Finally someone with a decent quality camera and clear viewing angles. Great tutorial!
Great tutorial! You have a wonderful speaking voice. Thanks for posting!
It always amazes me to compare how cheap these old attachments are compared how much they were new. That attachment, adjusted for inflation, was about $185CAN in the late 1950s.

Thank you so much! I try to edit down my videos to be as short but still as informative as I can. I'm glad it's appreciated!💖 And thank you!
LOVE your sewing machine that is even older than mine.
I just bought a Singer 404 in very mint condition and it surprisingly came with all the attachments and this zig zagger as well (in box) with 4 attachments
Awesome tutorial 🙏🏻 so stoked there are other antique singer enthusiasts out there - long live the hand crank 🌀🌀

Thanks for your dedication to high quality video production and content. I love the fact so many people recognize your wild skills. Love the video
Great tutorial! Getting one of these attachments for my Singer 28k is THE DREAM!
YES, YES, YES, very nice presentation and like others on here, nice camera work and great voice in your demo. I just order one (automatic zigzagger) along with Singer button hole attachment. Thank you, keep up great work.
I found a Singer zigzag attachment at a Estate Sale. Can’t wait to get this Operating… hahaha…
I've had one of those hanging around forever and after seeing your video I gave it a try. Your video was great and after watching it the directions that survived with it made more sense. Fun little gadget but I think I'll stick to a vintage zig-zag machine for times I want a zig-zag stitch.

Any interest in selling your zig zagger?
Excellent. Clear and easy to understand. Thanks so much.
I Just discovered that I own a zigzagger for my 1958 Singer. Packed into the back of my wardrobe. Thrilled! Does it have to be oiled? ..or, anything? Never mind, have the instructions and Yes, it has to be lubricated.... I LOVE my 60 year old sewing machine! and all it's attachments!
Love your video keep up your awesome work God bless you and yours
Nice clear easy to follow directions. Thank you.
Thank you so much for this post! I have spent too many hours trying to figure out which automatic zigzagger attachment model would be compatible with my Singer Class 66.
Excellent video. Thank you.
Thanks for your simple demonstration learn a lot.
Thanks! Very good & complete video

I have a singer 128 and I've been looking for a zigzagger. this video solidified I need one! I think I would reach for the machine a lot more.
I have one looks new in box , I am going to set it up on my treadel sewing machine soon, I am repairing a few older zigzags now , singer 767 zigzag, and working on a singer 722, I think I will like as it can sew patches on jeans , shirts better. Thanks for the great video .
I have one on my 66 it works good I love it
Brilliant video, thanks
Muy instructivo el video, ahora podre usar esa pieza que me regalaron en muchos terminados de mis trabajos... Gracias 🌷🌷🌷🌷⭐⭐⭐⭐

My go to attachment
I just ordered one for my singer 66!
Thank u !! ❤❤ straight stitch
A big THANK YOU!
Very good 👍😊
I had a Singer Featherweight and probably would not have bought an old Necchi that zigzagged had I known that accessory existed. Only heard about it on Utube a few months ago. That's the first time I ever saw it demonstrated. My used 221 came with the buttonhole qnd it made great buttonholes.
I was googling to see if the zig zag is possible with the same machine as yours,. After seeing your video I do recall a singer box, now to go find where it could be.
THANK YOU SO MUCH!
Oh so that’s what it’s for I have all the boxes of cams red blue white yellow and the attachment but I’ve never bothered to use it I should give it a go since gran used to demonstrate the machines and I’ve got so many attachments
"Most Excellent!"
Thank you for this - Can this be used with the Singer 99k - it look just like yours!
This is very helpful, thank you! You mention that you can leave the Zigzagger attached even when doing a straight stitch. Is it possible to align the fabric either left or right (as opposed to the usual central) whilst doing a straight stitch? Many thanks
This is an Amazing tutorial!!! Thank you ♥️ I bought this although it appears yours has an extra lever than mine for straight stitch above the fork on right? Is this an extra item available after the original attachment was made?
Really great tutorial. I have a question regarding using this attachment on an older machine. I own a Franklin 117.42, which is modeled on the Singer 27/127 sewing machine. Will this or similar attachments work with that machine which is a treadle machine?
thanks for the video, do you try with multiples layers , it this system can mis align layers, have you try to sew biais ? is it possible ?
Can you demonstrate how one would use this attachment when a pattern instruction calls for overcasting.
Do you know if there are a plate for a bigger zig zag pattern? Yours and mine are very short, I would like to have a bigger zig zag stitch.
Very interesting and informative. Are the accessories for the singer vintage sewing machine available on Amazon?
I can I use this for usha 301 model (45301)
Good evening, please don't you know if the zigzagger 161 158 is compatible with the 15k model? I can't find it anywhere. I don't know what to do anymore. Thank you.
Omgg finally i thought that my machine only sew in straight stitch

Yes you can. The zig-zag produced has the same elasticity as on a zig-zag capable sewing machine. The bobbin and needle threads follow the same path when stitched - they just get there by swinging the fabric left and right rather than the needle.

Please where did you purchase yours? I'll appreciate the help
Where do you get this?
Would this attachment work on a 16K?
Did you find extra cams?
No matter what I do, the width of my zigzag is narrow. Any suggestions? I have tried the bight, sittch length etc.
ممتاز رائع هل يوجد من هذه الدواسة في تركيا
I did not realize you can leave the attachment in place and switch between straight stitch and zigzag!
Where I can buy this one?
Can you give me the link for the attachments.
how can i avail that attachment any link
¿Porqué el dispositivo no sirve en otras máquinas? Yo veo las barras igual en todas. Creo que en todas debe servir¡...digo yo¡ 😊😁 Y me gustó el video y el dispositivo. Saludos. 😊
Does anyone knows how many options of stitches this zig-zagger has? I have only 8, but their numbers aren't a sequence.
That is a good demonstration. Does it really run as quietly as indicated in the video? It seems super smooth, more so than the buttonholer.

@@CraftcoreDIY can i attach this zigzag attachment normal sweing machine
Сейчас можно осовременить такую приставку. Для начала всето поворотов лапки можно поставить протягивающие ролики как в принтере. Если рычаг будет только связан с датчиком положения иглы, а за управление протяжкой ткани будет отвечать процессор и претензионые двигатели, выбор шва можно вывести на жидкокристаличесеий дисплей. Такая современная приставка сможет соперничать с современными швейными машинами.

Does anyone know if the pattern pieces are different for attachments on low shank and slant shank machines?

The Simanco part numbers and patterns for the cams for both the straight and slant shank machines are the same so they should be interchangeable.

Hi! I think you should be able to use it on the Singer 99. I'm demoing it on the 66 which is a very similar machine, just full size versus 3/4 size. 😊

Does this attachment work on a 404?
Why won't my zizagger move my fabric forward or backwars when I press sew. It only moves the zozagger side to side. And the lever on right side doesn't go as far back as yours seems to
