Singer 133k16

That indeed is interesting.... Well its an SV machine - very little to nothing is known about certain SV models, some are predecessors of later standard machines and some are kinda prototype or made for a special customer application.... no one really knows em all. Maybe yours had tension units positioned somewhere else. Right - no slot for the take up lever - very odd.

Can you post a picture of what is behind the face plate please.

EDIT:

Just a guess - no hook, no tension units, no take up lever - was this machine for what ever reason meant for just punching holes into... what ever????

It must have done something??

I only can imagine a "hole puncher" - but don´t ask me for what purpose. I really have no clue.

Is there a drive shaft for mounting the hook?

I have ordered a parts list online for 133ks but I'm wondering why model has no mention online. I'm going to email the museum in Scotland to see if they have any notion. I might have to make the holes myself for tension discs. I don't know but I will keep you posted.

sorry - I was on the wrong track with my SV machines statement I had the thread with the 133K darning machine in mind 

Looking forward to what the Singer museum will say...

That machine is rare.  It is a long arm 133K.  

You might contact Robert Collier for parts at Collier Equipment in Alabama.

It's a hole puncher,you have to drill a hole to insert the lower tension & drill & tap a hole for the upper tension.Take-up lever is missing too.Parts for this if you can find them will be expensive.
