HELP: Looking for a part- 201 tension piece
Does anyone have an extra of this part? I would really rather not buy an entire tension replacement if I don't need to, I'm sure it might come in handy down the line though.
From my Singer 201-2 it is numbered 45343 and it's called something like the thread guard plate.
From the front:
From the side, you can see the bend in the tail, I can't get it any better:
Thanks everybody!

Anastasia,
I don't have one of those pieces, but I think you could straighten it fairly easy. Just lay the tail across a flat hard surface and gently tap in the center of the bend from the curved side. Should straighten right up.

Oh come on you two, quit making excuses and straighten those pieces. You don't need a vise, or anything special.
Just a block of wood, a small hammer and a pair of pliers.
Geeze, do us guys gotta do all the straightening around here .......
