My wife just picked up the Singer 403 slant-o-matic at a thrift store today for $10.00. I was just checking UA-cam to see if we made a good decision and your video came up. It has the original book and some of the accessories and all the cams. It came with two metal bobbins. I'll take your advice and purchase some plastic ones. I'll have a sewing machine repairman go through the machine. She can't believe she's this blessed. She just happened to ask if they ever get old machines. They had this one in the storage area because a lady purchased the cabinet but didn't want the machine. I've read comments like this before. This time it actually happened to us! Thank you for your video.
Jackpot! You scored a sewing machine bonanza.
You’re going to love that machine and be bragging about it years from now. 😎👍🏼
I just picked one up at the thrift for $30, no accessories not even the pedal but I've been wanting a vintage machine and knew it was a good deal.
All of those items are available online. When you get it all together, you’ll love that machine. Good job! 😎👍
Thanks for the generous praises of this machine. I was lucky to get mine from my mother in law and with some tlc, it runs great. I even invested in getting most of the extra cams from Ebay. Yes, it's worth getting.
You’re the grand prize winner. It will serve you well.
Thanks for your kind remarks and thanks for watching.😎👍
I have absolute like new 401A and 404. Wonderful and beautiful high quality machines.
Bought one just like this yesterday for $27.50. Didn't mess around-----grabbed it B4 it was gone. Worth 7 times what I paid.
7 times at least, if not more. Once the world discovers them, that price will rocket upwards.
Pat yourself on the back for being brilliant. 👍😎
Randy, if you would have come to one of the houses I lived in and have the sales talk you just did, the mothers wouldn’t have let you leave without buying one! Seems like that one would have been a good one to sell and be proud of having done so for a family!
“Denim Scholarship” that’s a good one!
I had one of these & loved it!
They’re get popular again and harder to find for sale. People are realizing their value and are putting them back into service. Great machines. 😎
I have a 15-91, 201 and a 403A..the 403 is the only one I keep set up and ready to use . Every thing Randy said is true, just an incredibly well made machine. I did not know that the bobbins were machined...but it doesn't surprise me at all...from a time that the USA was in it's prime
“In its prime” for sure. Those craftsmen that built these machines took pride in their work. They went to work each day with the goal of making the best sewing machine that money could buy.
They achieved that and more. 👍🏼😎
Randy, has this machine been sold ?
A Golden Oldie. You are absolutely correct, they just don't make machines like this anymore. Pity, all the SKILLED workers that made these are gone forever.
Kinda reminds me of medieval British and European cathedrals. Gone forever is how the stained glass was colored. WW2 bombing destroyed some stained glass and it's easy to see the replacements.
True. The old school artisans were masters of their trades.

And they took their skills with them.
I prefer cam machines, tbh. You only really need straight, zz, multi-point zz, and maybe blind stitch.
I have my mother's book cams all attachments and recipients where she made payments.wouldnt take anything for it she bought it in 1959.
Your good fortune is admired by many folks who are after a machine of that high caliber of quality.
It’s easily the best Singer that was ever made.
It was made when Singer was at the pinnacle of design and precision throughout the world. 😎👍🏼
I just found one. It's missing the bottom plates under the foot and bobbin. Have parts?
Those parts should be available online. Needle plate, slide plate, bobbin case, etc. Just do a search and they’ll pop up. 😎👍
Now that you say it is worth keeping I will do just that! Does this machine by chance make a chainstitch?? That is something I am after.

Is the 404 similiar in quality to the 403A? I'm looking for a solid vintage sewing machine and there's a 404 for sale in our area.
Identical quality. The 403 is a zig zag
The 404 is a straight stitch only. If you’re not going to do zig zag stitches, grab that 404. It’s awesome. 😎
Thanks so much!
Randy, have you sold this? Looking to buy one for my wife.
I always try to keep one of those on hand, especially around Christmas time. Do you live in north Texas? I don’t ship them, so I would deliver it to you somewhere in the area.
We have a 403 can someone link what needle we need?
I can.
It takes a standard Singer needle.
You can get one at Walmart or Joann Fabrics.
Every needle is a Singer needle.
You may find it under license to Schmetz.
Same needle. 15x1 is it’s official designation.
They are interchangeable and fit all household machines and lots of sergers.
Easy. Peasy. 😎
