That machine is a non-feeding bag closer, or freehand pattern stitcher/tacker.

That confirms my suspicion.

I have been thinking of uses for this machine all afternoon, and surprisingly, i have come to the conclusion that if one fell into my lap at the right price (almost free), i would use it.

The darning, patching, bartacking, pattern sewing for sure, however i could see myself rigging up a puller and sewing bag sides with it, off/on the arm style.

Yes, it´s a sack darning or bag closing machine you cannot sew leather goods with this machine. Anyway, I have a PDF 133K8 sewing machine manual I could send you when you send me your email address by PM file is too big to attach.

The administrators of this site REALLY need to work on a mechanism that allows us to upload larger files for manuals and other special cases so we can share them with all users. Who owns this place?

I understand the limits on picture size, however there are various member levels, it would be a good perk for heavy contibutors to the site to have an increase in file size for pdfs and the like along with a bigger inbox. I know i have a few i could throw on here if there was a way. The thing is, because the volume and traffic of people downloading pdfs is so much lower, pdf hosting could even be hosted offsite, at a cheaper data-store. Most people will wait for a longer pdf download if it means they actually get the manual they need.

In France for big files I can use http://dl.free.fr/index_nojs.pl

But no protected files ... Or contents

There are quite a few data stores out there, I was leaning towards having a section within this site for pdfs that is an integral part of the site, however it is contained offsite, at cheaper hosting if the data volume becomes to big. When you pay for hosting, you pay for bandwidth and storage. The bigger the site, and the greater the traffic, the more it costs. They charge for either and both. The daily traffic in pdf downloads is low enough that it could be shoved off to a lower bandwidth hosting solution to keep the cost down.

The issue then becomes who will police it for copyright and other issues of propriety. Would need a separate moderator for that to approve uploads.

I think it would be a very useful addition to this site, considering the number of linked pdfs already here, and the number of broken links to pdfs in old threads.

Hi Constabulary

I was trying to open the link you provided with the down load as I have a Singer 133K10 and was wanting a copy of the user manual , but it appears the link is not working now. Do you still have it available ? 

Cheers Don

Here it comes again - I had to reduce the file size:

Manual Singer 133K8, 133K9, 133K10 and 133K17 (1).pdf
