Weekend find : 45k25 plus accessories

[Damas]

I found a 45k this weekend and its drawer was full of things ! I wanted to share with you and I will also need your help to identify and use some of the attachements it came with.

It came with a roller foot too ! Several hooks and shuttles and some Pfaff feet too... I have not yet started to clean it, just took of the front plate and shuttle race and shuttle and hook in order to prepare it for a good clean.

Here are the attachements (I will have to clean, derust, etc) I know Number 2 is a binding attachement because I have found previous topics here that talked about it. But Number 1 and 5 are more mysterious to me... So does one of the foot too (7).

Some close up pictures to come !

And the fun part, the badge above serial nb says "Rental machine, unseizable and non-transferable property of the Singer company"

Attachement N1.

It looks like it has to go under the foot... with what looks like a needle hole in the center But I might be wrong. I really need your help on this one.

Attachement N. 5

This one looks like a piping maker from my understanding. You put a string  in the center, and you wrap a piece of leather around and voilà !

 

Foot N7, any idea ?

Nice find! Roller feet are sought after and accessories are always priceless!

I guess #5 is for folding leather strips for reins but I only can guess.

Do you know in what kind of leather business this machine was used? Maybe the products they made can give an idea what #1 and #5 were used for.

Maybe the 2 bits are custom made but when you browse through the parts list of other 45K machines (different sub classes means different accessories) you sometimes see obscure accessories so that probably is a good source to figure what you have.

My goodness what  find   

I spotted 3 shuttle hooks, and around 16 (?)  bobbins  in those pieces.   Boot making?

Upholstery, according to the people I got the machine from. It originally belonged to a far relative, who died about 20 years ago. They have now decided to sell the house and everything had to go. Yes, I have been lucky on this one ! I am very happy !

When cleaning it up, should be parts numbers on the parts.  That will tell us a lot.

[Damas]

Yes, sure. But I already took a close look and some does not have any… As said by @Constabulary probably custom made.
