CowboyBob Report post Posted January 5, 2010 Well since you can't get gears for the 29k51 I'd say keep the Adler, parts are much easier to get & some Singers parts will fit saving some $$ since Adlers parts are very expensive. Bob Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CowboyBob Report post Posted January 8, 2010 I'll bet your right when he got the Adler he found it it would sew alittle heavier & smoother too. Just thought I'd mention we stock thread,needles & anything else you might need fot it. Let me know if you have anymore questions. Bob Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
