The Singer 27 Machine Manual can be down loaded from the internet in the PDF format that document explains the attachment usage.

Love surfing the internet! http://www.treadleon.net/sewingmachi...tachments.html Enjoy :-D

Piney, thank you so very, very much for the url. I've been so busy lately trying to get moved that I haven't had a chance to look them up.

Please tell me, how did you pull the nails up out of the clasp pieces without damaging them (to get the liner underneath) and the bobbin holder tacs?

Beautiful job! I've been wanting one of these boxes to go with my treadle machine for a long time. As a side note, I believe that the 1889 date on the boxes is the patent date...not the actual year of manufacture.

I found a website that has instructions/pictures of 3 different styles of puzzle boxes and their attachments.
