I bought the 133K8 in a used state around 1998 for 800DM. The previous owner did some painting on it (not too bad) and it worked well. He also included some needles, but i dont find them any more Now i want to get rid of it, because i had no use for it in the last ~ 13 years and you know, it's a massive and place-consuming tool For testing it would be great to have some needles (leather and cloth). At the moment i have only one for cloth, but i have no clue how the size of the needles are defined :/ It would be great to have some for massive leather (4-5mm thick altogether) and cloth (like the one used for convertible soft tops or the canvas for truck trailers). Thank you for your help so far, Mathias

Hello everyone, i just (well,... it took some hours until my registration was reviewed - but better wait than to have spam on a board) registered because i also have a Singer 133K8. Thank you so much for the manual! I searched long and this was the only link i found - and it worked One question .. i got no luck to find a shop in germany/europe for the needles. I searched for some time but only found a shop in Australia ;( The manual says that the machine needs needles of the type 216X1 for cloth and 216X2 for leather. Does anyone know an alternative which can be bought in a shop in germany/europe? Thanks in advance, Mathias
