Singer made later feet that fit the low shank. They're also 'mostly plastic' parts made during the period that Singer was tanking badly. I haven't bothered trying any of them.
It's worth mentioning that the modern 'Singer' has no relation at all to the Singer of old. When Singer finally went under in the 1980s, they sold the brand name to a Chinese consortium. Today's Singers are nothing more than flimsy cheapo nonames with a famous brand decal on the side.
Most real Singer parts are stamped 'Simanco' (Singer Manufacturing Company) not 'Singer' (Singer Sweing Machine Company).
The actual sewing division of Singer was sold without the brand to Pfaff.
