Singer No. 127 parts query
 
I have a Singer No. 127. I am trying to work out what these are. They were in one of the drawers...

I have a 127 and a Franklin 127 clone in a parlor cabinet, and that doesn't look like anything I've seen, unless it has something to do with raising/lowering the machine out of/ in to the table.

I have a feeling the 2 may not belong together but they were in the top drawer of the cabinet. joined by that twine. They may have got connected by accident...
The machine raises & lowers as it should.

These don't look familiar but i do have a model 127 which is waiting to be stripped down so i will report back but highly doubt it's a piece from the workings of the machine. Could be anchors used for transportation of the machine on a truck bed or something similar back in the day???

The eye of the clamp shaped item rotates 360 degrees smoothly but does not seem to be otherwise adjustable so I kind of thought it maybe had something to do with guiding the treadle belt maybe?

Here are some separate pics of the 2nd item which has some sort of scale on one edge -

The clamps are not for guiding the belt i say (just looked at my own and nope). Now then, those measured guides are a puzzle that i will look up further. Sorry i can't help for now.

I am going to guess that slides into a presser foot attachment. Did you have other feet that came with the machine?

I thought they looked like parts from the tucker marker. Yes there are some other pieces for it. I think some of the manuals may have instructions for the tucker.

I"ll try to look later for some and the other parts.

Yes, I see now this is part of a Tucker foot attachment.

I can't help feeling the clamp thing is related to the machine somehow as both were in the top drawer.

The clamp is not part of the machine or cabinet IMO.
