Sander Tel Report post Posted October 19, 2010 Hi everybody, I am on the verge of getting myself a Singer 29K51 sewing machine. I have understood from the vendor the bobbinhouse and bobbin is missing. Are these articles readily available in sewingmachine shops or do I need some shop which has the vintage parts in some dusty corner. Further I like to know what to scan for whilst checking out the machine at the vendors place. Wair and tair... Parts which should be on the machine and what they do... Apart from the above I like to know what type of motor I could fit to the machine... Anybody any ideas on what kind of power the motor should have ? Maybe a standard 90W electric sewingmachine motor ??? Best Regards, Sander Tel, hobby tailor and general textile and leather enthousiast. PS: see the machine at hand in attached file..

Sander Tel Report post Posted October 19, 2010 The machine pictured below: My (soon to be) Singer 29K51 - 8000 made in Clydebank, Scotland back in 1921 (date is said to be 14th of July - hmmm, must ring some bells across the big pond) Bobbin, bobbin housing and needle(s) missing.... Which should I look for ?? No idea of the condition this girl is in, but she looks to business... not just considering her age. Motorless (HELP !!!)
