Does anyone know of a website where one can get parts for older Brother Home Sergers? A friend of mine needs a looper and can't find one locally.

Your friend might want to try a sewing repair tech locally that has been in the business for awhile. They usually have parts for many types of machines. I have seen posts where peope have purchased parts on line at Sew4less and also at SewUSA or was it SewingUSA? There are several other places on line too. Maybe google a bit and you will find more.

You can get loopers almost anywhere. The problem is going to be getting it installed properly without doing further damage.
Have fun or don't do it, Tom

Thanks for the web sites. Best I could tell from the information she gave me the Sew4Less company has the looper she needs.

I have to agree with Tom, about getting the looper installed properly. I don't attempt to do my own loopers, I don't even do my knives. I suggest taking the serger to a repair tech for the precision adjusments that a serger needs.
