Evo160K Posted March 6, 2018 Report Posted March 6, 2018 Singermania, What manuals do you have for the Singer 45K53? Thank you Quote
Members Dgwallis Posted April 2, 2018 Members Report Posted April 2, 2018 Can anyone help me identify this machine and give me feedback on it's ability to handle sewing shoe uppers? I'm in LA area and this is the only used machine I've come upon. They are asking $950. Any input appreciated! New to the forum and to shoe making... Quote
Members Constabulary Posted April 2, 2018 Members Report Posted April 2, 2018 uuuuh - haven´t seen this one before so just form what it looks to me i tis a Singer Zigzag post bed machine and the head part is based on the Singer 107w as far as I can tell. Probably 3 step ZZ or it is making some sort of stitch pattern - I think thats what the device on the backside is for. But I only can guess. The dealer has no information?

Members Dgwallis Posted April 2, 2018 Members Report Posted April 2, 2018 Thanks-- they didn't have much info, but there was a bit of a language barrier. Quote
Members sewtogetherbyb Posted April 26, 2018 Members Report Posted April 26, 2018 Hello, I have a 29k that I recently purchased and I've cleaned and oiled her good, watched the videos on how to properly thread, etc but I it still won't stitch. By that I mean it moves but never picks up the bobbin thread. I think it is because the tension in the disks where the thread first passes through is to tight but if I loosen the screw on the tension disk anymore it will come off. I also tried to adjust the other tension screw at the top and that loosens it but then my pressure foot doesn't seem to stay down well. I hope this makes sense. I appreciate any guidance as I really want to use It! Thanks. Quote

Moderator Wizcrafts Posted May 26, 2018 Moderator Report Posted May 26, 2018 This topic actually started out as a discussion about industrial sewing machine manuals. It has since morphed into an anything goes discussion. So, I am unpinning it and making it a standard topic. Regarding manuals, Johanna and I are thinking about starting a new forum where sewing machine and needles manuals can be uploaded and kept in one place. I will let you know if/when this forum goes live.
