SFoglio Report post Posted June 7, 2023 I have two of these machines and I’m thinking about getting a newer model to replace them. Is there still a demand for these old work horses? Thanks Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AlZilla Report post Posted June 7, 2023 Certainly. A couple of 29-4s near me here in the rural far north US sold a few months back for $275 each. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Is there still a demand for these old work horses? Thanks The only Singer patchers that are newer than the 29k71 are the Japanese built 29U171, 29U172, and 29U173. Anything else that is a newer patcher will either be a Chinese clone, or an Adler 30 series, or a Claes. At least the Adler 30 class uses the same bobbins and shuttles as the Singer 29 series. You sub-class 71 uses a small bobbin. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
