Can I use these on a Singer Serger (3-4 thread differential feed). Can I take the spool holder off the serger? Will I need another adapter?

Yes it can be used on your serger, without the spool holders. No, I didn't use another adapter.

I'm assuming you are talking about the lower loopers as they are not needles but are below. It is necessary to become acquainted with threading these as it can be very frustrating to have to in the middle of a project when you run out of thread or a thread breaks. It is also imperative to follow precisely or you will have messed up stitches. That said it is possible to thread and becomes second nature when you learn. There are color coded thread guides to follow and you will find it easier by taking off the free arm apparatus to get to the loopers more easily. Use the long tweezers as that is easier than using fingers . Once threaded it is easy to 'pull' new colors through instead of trying to run the machine to change as they can easily break at the knot. Tie the new color to the old and loosen the tension and just pull gently through. You will have to thread the needles and use the long tweezers makes that a breeze. Hope this helps; but practise practise practise and you will be an expert in no time and using a serger will be as effortless as your sewing machine~!

J. Mugg, This is a 3/4 thread serger. You can sew with one needle or two needles. Though it does not technically sew a straight stitch, this being a 3/4 should do what you need it to do. Thank you,

Hi! If you own a regular sewing machine there is no foot attachment to make it into a serger. A serger is a separate machine. When you do purchase a serger the basic foot is all you need to serge your seems, but there are many different feet per each serger for different tasks just like a sewing machine. Hope that answers your question!

I had a problem with the pedal with my serger. After investigation (I traced the components and drew up a schematic), I found out that the wiring for the cord was incorrect. After switching the wires, the pedal worked fine. The circuitry is simple triac controller. It should work with any universal motor. If your connector is properly wired it should work fine.

No, it will not. However, they don't tell you that. I did write a review earlier that the tray serger thread holder is not tall enough for the Madeira serger threads, but I purchased one at Joann's that although not tall enough is wide enough to hold numerous threads of any shape and size. Sorry, I no longer have the specific name for this holder, but just browse Joann's plastic notion containers and you will surely find it.

Actually I bought these by accident. If you are interested, I will sell them to you for $20 plus shipping. I don' have a Brother, I have a happy commercial machine. The thread size notations are very confusing because there are a number of different systems for describing thread sizes and I am not sure what is in the Brother manual. This having been said, the bobbin thread used for embroider is usually lighter than the top thread. If you are doing basic embroidery with the threads that are advertised as machine embroidery threads, these bobbins will work just fine for you. ferrar@roadrunner.com

Yes, you can use various spool sizes of thread. Just make sure you use the proper size thread spool cap.

Yes. Your machine should have an accessory pack that includes a plastic attachment that keeps the spool of thread on. If you don't have one, you can take a piece of styrofoam and push it through the thread post to hold the spool on.

I don't know if it will fit your Singer. It does attach to the newest Janome's and Brother sewing machines. Both of these machines that uses this type of foot have low shanks. The foot snaps onto a bar. I hope this answer helps. Good Luck!

It works on a standard sewing machine. Serger pressed feet are quite model specific.

from what I have read yes you can use non proprietary spools. which means any brand as long as it is the 1.75mm

You can see that in page 39 from manual (http://www.manualowl.com/m/Singer/14J250-Stylist-II-Serger/Manual/331696?page=39). I hope help you.

These work on any spool with a normal size hole. They work by catching the bobbin in the top part and then fitting in the hole on the spool of thread. Hope this helps...

They work beautifully on my PE770. I have never used anything else on my machine. I hate winding bobbins.

My serger threads came from my local store, SureLock from Coats 3,000 yds. and they fit just fine. Mine are about 4 3/4" high from base to the top of the cone. I love the insert and it fits in the matching satchel or whatever it is called. Keep the threads neat and upright. I store mine vertically to save space in my closet. Hope this does help you decide whether to purchase this. I am about to order a 2nd as I have more serger thread than when I purchased the original.

Hello- This item is for the 2 inch ribbon spools. There a a few Galaxie models that require a smaller spool. Please measue your spools if they are 2 inches in diameter, then Yes this will work. If however your machine has a smaller spool you will need a different item . Feel free to contact us via Amazon email.
