Side Cutter II Sewing Machine Foot Attachment

This is a wonderful product for LIGHTWEIGHT sewing! I happen to use it on very sheer nylon for grooming smocks, so it converts my straight shanked Brother and Singer machines into sergers very easily. I know Singer has a heavier duty side cutter and plan to purchase it for future heavy weight sewing, but for now, this is the product that I will be using. You will need to read the instructions in order to get it to work the first time as I just expected it to go to work automatically. NOT! It's wonderful for the price for lightweight materials and I would recommend it for the hobby to advanced sewer who does not want to purchase a serger right away.

The package arrived promptly. The cutter box looked like it had been mashed. The cutter itself was bent. I fixed it so it will work. The packing could have been cushioned better. The cutter works fine on light fabric but anything more than cotton, buy a real serger to do the job.

I've been having a lot of problems with this side cutter it barely catches the material. My friend got it to work she said it has to do with how i am holding it but on my actual serger settings it does not sew at a depth on the material that it will stay in place. also when getting it to hem the fabric it is very hard to have a clean cut edge without going at an angle on the fabric.
