Gunengraver Report post Posted December 22, 2018 Hello all and thank you for accepting me, i do hand engraving, but my girls want to learn how sew so here we are. I just bought this pending shipment, but wanted to get ahead. Seller thinks its a 30-1 but is not sure. What model and how can you tell, please explain it like im a first grader. It looks grey, but was told its green. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Constabulary Report post Posted December 22, 2018 (edited) 30-1 most likely - small hook short needle. You can tell from the position of the arm lever pivot pin that it has a short needle (pivot point on the right = Adler 30-7 / 30-5, pivot point on the left Adler 30-1 / 30-3) plus it has no raised housing and and on the last picture you see a pice of the hook - its a small hook. 30-1 small hook, short needle 30-3 large hook, short needle 30-5 small hook, long needle 30-7 large hook, long needle It´s a light greenish hammertone paint. BTW - foot lift lever is broken off, needle plate holes are very worn. Edited December 22, 2018 by Constabulary Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
trash treasure Report post Posted December 22, 2018 Whichever model that is, and whatever price he's asking, I think you should talk the seller down a bit - That motor is just too small ............ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You've got a good eye, well i got him down, to half of what he originally wanted, im in Laredo, Texas, bordertown to Mexico. They actually have a singer store on the Mexican side that do repairs, hopefully they can fix her up on the cheap. 30-1 as far as ive read there are more parts. Just in case where can i find parts. The motor had seen that, it will be hand turned, she plans on using it for shoes. She customizes them. Thanks again for your help. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
