I stopped in at the local SA thrift store very near me. Started to walk past the counter and saw a similar but smaller puzzle box. The young lady (about 14 yo) got it for her DGM. I saw her hand over, are you ready? $2.00. I asked if I could just see her puzzle. She knew what I meant. Looked at me and said. Tomorrow is my gma's birthday. I told her she would be excited. $2.00. There were 5 pieces in the box. She told me what they were! Just so very cool when I see a youngster involved in sewing and the machines and parts.

[ATTACH=CONFIG]531717[/ATTACH]Cathy, thank you so much for posting all this information. I'm glad you explained that the underbraider and screwdriver holder are sometimes reversed because the picture in my documentation does not match my box so I always assumed that it had been re-assembled.

It's also interesting that with all the different styles, box 11 for model 27 (VS) is by far the most common. ...
... and it's also common to find them with non-standard attachments included. Many sellers have no clue, and think their box is "complete" because it's got a lot of items. I've seen some that had almost no puzzle box parts. Looks like someone had used the box to put all their 66 attachments inside. Singer has stopped using the puzzle box by the time they came out with model 66.

I'd like to find one for the 15 type bobbins for my 15-30 or 15K26.
