  1. Tas..... How you know so much about these machines is inspiring!
  2. Hello, I am looking to sell my Singer 29K51 Base for $100.00 Canadian + Shipping or Pick up delivery. Located in Canada MB Condition is surface rust and not restored. I also have a Singer 29K51 Body + Misc bits and pieces minus the gearbox available if anyone wants those too for lets say $50.00 Canadian.
  3. Hello, Apologies, I'll delete and repost in the proper way. Thank you Joe
  4. I'm thinking to go with some sort of Harley Gold with Black accent. To match the color pallet of my favorite Harley paint combo. (Attached is the inspiration) I also have the original base that the machine came on so maybe I'll get carried away and hit it with some chrome haha! Beautiful hammers! What type of shoes do you make? Do you have a link I can check out? Also - Attached URLs for the 29K51 when I first brought it home. https://ibb.co/Sx7S3c5 https://ibb.co/cCGZKSX https://ibb.co/zhnVJwy https://ibb.co/HY62YNy https://ibb.co/W6GC4KM https://ibb.co/3RdY4pj https://ibb.co/sRsQLWx https://ibb.co/Gtkn9TM https://ibb.co/GCCNW16 https://ibb.co/f2YM3Mt https://ibb.co/ch6Qt0F https://ibb.co/J3cPgrL https://ibb.co/7Jzrzvm https://ibb.co/HTFJc25 https://ibb.co/P4HmnmN
  5. Hello, I am parting out a Singer 29K51 to people who may need them to finish some machines or just want to have spares of parts. The machine was purchased in auction with a couple broken parts and all seized up. I have it all disassembled now and parts are ready to be shipped. I have attached the parts list for reference. Currently the complete gearbox is spoken for but everything else is still available. Feel free to message me for more information.

  6. Hello Tastech, Thank you so much for all the great information! I'll keep this pinned so I can reference it in the future. I was going to powder coat the body but I'm now thinking otherwise haha. I'm leaning towards rebuilding the machine as a "Display piece" and not a functioning machine - With this in mind if you'd like parts for the machine let me know and I can get them cleaned up and we can work something out. I can email you some better photos of the parts you'd want and such as well. I also have the original cast iron base that the sewing machine was mounted too with the foot pedal. Regards, Joe
  7. Would you happen to be able to send me that German Manual?! My Father in law is Old German. I would love to see his face if I showed him the manual!
  8. Great job on those restorations!! Did you find a stencil for the logos? Or how did you get those back on after painting? I was thinking I needed to powder coat the body did you just use spray paint? Lots of questions! haha. But really nice job. Inspiring! I believe I only managed to break these two parts. Until I get everything cleaned up I may be looking for more. I am also open to the idea of selling the machine if anyone is interested. I wouldn't know where to begin in terms of using it to make awesome things so it may end up as a display piece in my shop for the rest of its life. I am currently on the "wire wheel" every piece of the puzzle phase after disassembly and giving everything a good wash. Once I get all the bits and pieces cleaned up I'll share some photos of a spread of all the parts. Including the damaged ones for reference. Looks like I'm lucky that the gearbox was complete on my machine. Also thank you for the resizing tips! Worked!
  9. Hello! Hope everyone is doing well. I recently found a 29K51 at a local auction and let me tell ya! It needs some loving. But hey, I figured I like tinkering and have a good mechanical background maybe I can restore this beauty. That being said, I browsed the forums for some documentation (manuals, parts books, part suppliers etc.). With little luck on some good solid information. I'm assuming this is just because the machine is so old and a lot of the documentation or parts suppliers are now gone. If anyone has a pdf for the 29K51 operation manual, or a good restoration forum guide I'd love to read them. As well as a parts supplier as I definitely broke a couple pieces trying to remove stuck pins. I have tried to attached photos of the 29K51 but the file sizes were too big - Right now it has been completely disassembled and I am in the process of cleaning all the little bits and pieces up in preparation for a reassembly.
