Does anyone know if the Singer 29 K 4 should have a oil cup? Mine does not have one and it seems like it never had one either. The reason I`m asking is because the machine will not sew properly, and I was thinking this had to do with me threading it wrong. Is there a step by step guide out there on how to thread a Singer 29 K 4? A video would be very helpful

Thanks for the information sewmun

Hello everybody, I`m new to this forum and to sewing leather using a sewing machine, I have some experience with leather sewing by hand. I just got me a very nice SInger 29 K-4 and I have a few questions I hoped someone could help me with These are some of the parts that came with me sewing machine and I`m wondering what they are used for and how: Witch one of these needles are made for leather sewing and what are the other ones made for? This shuttle did not fit the shuttle carrier on this machine, and the bobbins does not fit this one either because the rod in the middle is to wide. Is this for the Singer 29 K-4 at all or is it for another model? These are the two feeding feet that came with the machine, are both made for leather sewing? What is the difference? I`m going to use this machine for sewing heavy german WW2 leather pouches, belts and straps, and I would like to use natural thread materiales like linen or cotton. Are there any suitable threads like that? The thickest thread possible would be the best. It seems however that the bobbins can`t take much thick thread, are there any other ways to cope with this? Thanks of any help!
