Just brought a singer 29k

Chrisash,

The 29K series 29K51-56  of which your machine is one has very small teeth on the drive and following pinions as well as the drive rack underneath.  These parts are critical because there are no replacement parts that I know of anywhere.  I have some original pinion and a rack that are unused.  The reason, to back engineer them to have them made which is a future project.  The extra small teeth on the gears and racks  raise the risk of wear and possibility of chipping so treat the ones you have on your machine with extra care.  Just my two cents!

When you get them made, please put me down for a set, fantastic you have a virgin set , so copies will be made from original measurements rather than half worn out ones

Guess you mean parts, 82067, 82104, 82069, 82108, 82106, 82071.

Failing that can you convert to any of the other versions if it breaks

Just been looking up 3D printing of metal objects and it looks like they can make up the parts required in either Stainless steel or normal steel which may well be the quickest and cheapest way to go with a few made at the same time

I would guess your parts could be scanned into a cad package to produce the data required

The time and materials cost will probably exceed that of having them milled and finished at a machine shop.

Someone I know has a singer 29K 72. The wheel does not turn easy looks dirty. Will need a hole going through and they have a singer29K 51 the wheel on that one turns easy look dirty no need serviced. I'd like to know what a reasonable offer would be for both of them a package deal to buy from them.

I meant they both will need serviced. Sorry about the tables. I'm guessing they will need service. Mainly wondering what I should offer for both both of them give them a fair price for what they are in the condition they're in.
