Teradee Report post Posted January 3 I may have a chance to buy one of these, but didn’t know if one was a better machine than the other? Jason Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Constabulary Report post Posted January 4 (edited) 30-10 is the newer version of the 30-1. Technically there is no big difference. Both are small bobbin patcher machines with the same stitch length and foot lift. Spare parts are expensive. Edited January 4 by Constabulary Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Teradee Report post Posted January 4 thanks @Constabulary and @shoepatcher! Is there a patching machine you would recommend over one of these? Are these and the 29K's a horse a piece? Is there something out there that I'd be much happier with in a similar price range? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
shoepatcher Report post Posted January 8 The best machine out there is a Claes. These are very expensive new. Used ones are available but they start about $3,500.00 just so you know. I would try to buy one of them. glenn Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If you can afford a Claes you will need deep pockets. Example would be new from Landis International ( http://landisusa.com/us-en/claes-8346-20.html ) just the head will cost $5880 USD and the stand is another $1065 USD. Then there are the Chinese Clones of the Singer 29K73 to list a couple Amazon for $1200 USD, Cowboy CB29BL for $2950 USD, Cobra Class 29-18 for $2995 USD kgg Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
