My 7EL's leather strap was gone when I got it. So is the forward strap attachment piece.
The latter part (the forward strap attachment) is apparently a sheet metal part that is captured by a black hex cap nut. You can see the black hex cap nut in this picture:
So the attachment probably has a clearance hole for 25mm threads in it. At the other end of that missing attachment piece, where the strap attaches, should be a slot about 5/8" wide and 1/8" tall. The narrow part of the leather strap goes through that slot, folds, and comes back to be riveted. The strap belts to the other attachment point on top of the machine.
I need the dimension between the 25mm hole and the 1/8" slot in order to make a new front strap attachment point part. If you can post this dimension, it would be most welcome.
