Thank you to "sewhorsey"
I will be contacting her imediatly!

My favorite foot is the buttonhole attachment for Singer slant needle machines. I have never seen a better buttonhole ever. It is easy to use and makes perfect buttonholes every time.
I like this foot so much that when a friend stripped the main gear on my Singer and I was told it was not worth fixing [little does he know] I purchased a Singer 401 so that I could use the buttonhole atttacment.
To me it is worth fixing. If anyone knows where I can find a gear I would love to hear from you.
