My mom's sewing machine has a small metal part (~1" in the biggest dimension) that's broken and is preventing her from using some of the machine's features. She's tried to get a replacement, but apparently the manufacturer doesn't stock that part for that older model any more. Any suggestions on a company that could scan the part and 3D-print a new one? I don't think it would be cheap, but I assume it would probably be cheaper than buying a whole new sewing machine.

There's a ton of replacement parts online but I can't seem to find something like it randomly clicking on sergers and looking around: My mom took her machine to a local repair shop and they tried replacing the broken part with the new part shown. However it didn't fit; apparently Singer changed the model slightly at one point and despite what the page says, the new style part won't fit her machine. She has the old style.
