I run through ten or so common problems that individuals encounter when trying to get an old Singer 29K Patcher cobblers sewing machine up and running properly...a sort of troubleshooting guide.
These areas are fairly common to any sewing machine, so if you are having the sewing machine blues, this film may help you out. I hope you enjoy watching it.

Great, I’ve just purchased one Yesterday. Lovely looking machine....Thanks for your time showing this vid. If it wasn’t for people like you and KZbin we would all be in the dark and never learn. 👍

Got a k29 yesterday. Never sown before. Did as you suggested: Read the manual. And… it says, that the vertical tension discs are for dawning. Whatever that means. Not for winding the bobbin. Thanks for the effort in making the video, really helpful.

Hi Harry, I have used a patcher to stitch leather menu covers. The tensioner on the side of the machine is not for bobbin winding but is used when sewing work that needs to be rotated on the needle, as the corner of a menu cover. You can then lift the presser foot without loosing thread tension, rotate the work on the needle, drop the foot and continue sewing the other edge. If you use the upper tensioner the thread tension will be released when the foot is lifted so ruining the stitch continuity. I think the manual claims it's for darning. I've done many hours on this machine and never bored with it.

Thank you Mr. Rogers for the well explained video of you. it helped me a lot to get my sewing machine running again. I think I watched it about 15 times. Now it's running again. Thank you thank you. Keep it up

I've had one for many years and it's on a treadle base so the hand wheel is on the end. You may have inspired me enough to get it running again. It has a super long arm and I've been told it's for reaching down into tall boots.

Hi Harry, The front set of tension disks that you said was for the bobbin winding is in actual fact for Darning. You can see this in the manual. All the best.
