Default Attachments - don't know what they fit

Got this lot of attachments. I haven't tried to figure out what the bed mount ones fit yet.



What has me stumped are these ones in the middle - anyone have a clue what/how they fit?





One is a binder, two are rolled hemmers. The other two appear to be wide hemmers, but they are a bit different than what I'm use to seeing.





The group also included some older style Greist attachments for White, and a couple of ratty old boxes. I have no idea if this box goes with any of the attachments - it's a name I haven't come across before.



I did some quick searching on Keystone Attachments - found some interesting older meat grinders . . .

Cool! Should be a fun research project. Commercial machines instead of domestic maybe?

I've got no information, but what an adorable pussy cat: I just want to give it a pat and cuddle!

​What a great collection, I bet you will find a treasure trove of information about other things while researching the attachments. I have never seen anything like that before, I will be watching this thread to see if it gets figured out.
Rodney may have something there. Keystone sewing machines to sew canvas?

I had to laugh when I saw your pictures- the kitty right in the middle of everything! I felt right at home? Mine do it all the time.

Don't know too much about the attachments, but do LOVE the kitten cat.

If you would drop a few of those smaller ones, Kitty would soon show you what they are for, paw batting, all over the kitchen and then chase, catch and bat away again.

My brother has a couple older commercial machines and they kind of look like the attachments in his collection. One is a Pfaff and an Adler. But I have never seen him use them. But we both see attachments and bring them home just in case they fit something.
