[exstension table for 29k]

Hi Alberta

I have a Singer 29K table, and recently let another member have the dimensions and some pics. I've attached them here.

Measurements are as follows (in millimetres)

A=115mm

B=80mm

C=45mm

D=25mm

The length of the arm is 312mm (this is the short-arm version)

I have also traced around the inside of the slot, and the result is on the attached pdf. The file has been reduced to 50%, so if you print it out and photocopy or scan it to 200%, you should arrive back at original size (or just get the measurement back to 318mm by whatever means!).

Hope this is what you need.

Terry
