The "sad" one that follows will clean up and sew like a dream. You'll be surprised.
Here is a picture of the attatchments. Does anyone know what the attatchments are for or what they do? The second picture is of a wooden box a friend gave me a long time ago, I collect boxes. I knew they were attatchments for a sewing machine, but I never knew that it went to a vintage Singer sewing machine. I think it is called a Singer puzzle box. How do I find out if they will work on my Singer 9w? I forgot to mention that I paid $30 for the machine and cabinet, it needs a belt.

Does anyone know the name of this decal? I went to the link posted a few pages back, but this one is not shown. I know I saw it on here before, but cannot remember how far back, and I am NOT into hunting through 1100 pages!!! LOL

Lori, the first pic you posted shows attachments that will fit a machine with rear foot attachment. Those are for older machines...if yours has a rear mount, try them carefully. The ones in the 2nd pic are for some kind of side mount.
In the first pic you have a ruffler and some different sized hemmers...the hemmers turn the fabric under for a rolled hem. I don't recognize the others.

I am really unschooled in older machines. When you rear mount are you talking about where the foot attatches? I just looked on mine and you have to unscrew it in the back to switch the foot out. I was told my Singer is around 1905-1910. I will put the puzzle box back away then.
I thought maybe the ones you called hemmers where for bindings.

Oh, yes, the rear mount is where the foot attaches.
