The singer stiletto would be more exciting for me than the bias gauge. I have several of the bias gauges, but just a couple of the stilettos. Does the stiletto have a looped handle or does it look like wire wrapped straight handle?

I have some tins from other machines, but not a Singer tin. I originally thought that only German and China had early tins. Upon further research, I found http://needlebar.org/main/puzzles/index.html and http://needlebar.org/nbwiki/index.ph...utside-Tin.jpg and http://needlebar.org/nbwiki/index.ph...ach-in-Tin.jpg

Most of the tins that I have seen have hardware to hold the various pieces in. It also looks like perhaps yours has been relined rather than original fabric. It also looks like an match box partially opened to fill the space of bottom. Another tin with hardware can be seen at singer VS2 metal attachment box

Just remembered that the 24-50 had a tin as seen on page 40 of http://www.maquinasuniao.com.br/wp-c...-50,%20-51.pdf

Still a very neat box.

Have fun filling it with appropriate attachments.
