Singer 29k171 "Another journey to the unknown"
First of all Happy New year to everyone here at the LW. this is another 29k restoration if anyone is interested. iam sure some of us are saying " Oh no ANOTHER 29K!!! " but they seem to be about the most popular machine on this forum??. this machine was bought for €130 with the stand and is in need of some care. one of the previous owners was more than likely a cobbler who probably used this everyday due to the wear on the parts. unfortunately somewhere along the line the paint brush was taken
Ok Wiz thanks.Neat gadget! i bet you dont buy a lot of socks then.
