LeatherWerks Report post Posted May 6, 2013 I recently purchased the Singer 29K53 for pretty cheap. I needed to get some bobbins and needles plus some #69 thread. Now that I have all of those items, it's time to get this machine stitching. After threading the machine I stitched a thin piece of leather and got fair results. I tried to adjust the tension on the top thread but as things often happen....I screwed it up. Now it ain't stitching so good. I was wondering if someone could give me some advice on getting this machine back in stitching order.It would appear that the bobbin side thread looks okay, it's the top thread that is out of wack. Thanks, Steve Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CowboyBob Report post Posted May 8, 2013 You need to make sure the bobbin thread is threaded correctly & you need to chack that your tension spring is good as they can get sprung & not work properly. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LeatherWerks Report post Posted May 8, 2013 Thanks Bob. I guess when I got the other items from you I should have ordered the tension spring as well. Is it something you have? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
