Hi there @SimOneNL , there is a Facebook group called Singer Featherweights UK, and Philip Enstone who runs it, may be able to help.  He is very knowledgeable, and helpful.

Hope this helps.

Jessie, who is very happy to be here!!  :),  but who has far too many sewing machines to be healthy, and a fabric stash which is becoming embarrassing.

There is also a "groups.io" site for vintagesingermachines that should be able to help. There may even be a special featherweight group - I don't know as I've no featherweight. Very knowledgeable people and I'm almost positive I've heard this issue addressed already, so you may find an answer without posting. You do have to sign up to access everything though. I signed up for vintage singers, vintage machines (in general), vintage Kenmore and treadleon (specifically for treadles). Discussions are limited to machines only. No chit-chat, no politics, no sewing - just machines.

I don't do facebook either.
