Cowboy Outlaw question on accessory compatibility

[bigsig11010]

I have the steel flat plate on my Cowboy Outlaw. I also have the edge guide. When the flat bed is installed it makes the edge guide tilted to one side. My question then is are these two supposed to work together or are they mutually exclusive? Any help and guidance greatly appreciated.  Pics attached i hope

The guide appears to be for the JUKI 441 + clones. So w/o knowing the CB Outlaw but knowing Singer 45K´s, Adler 5 / 105 and so forth I´d say either flat bed or edge guide. A suspended flip up edge guide probably is the better option when working with a flat bed.

maybe something like this

or you make a flat bed attachment where you can screw on an edge guide or modify yours.

I once made this FBA for my Singer 45D91 but on mine I cannot use the 441 roller edge guide but the OEM Singer 45K edge guide that mounts on the flat bed steel plate insert. Note the 3 holes in line. Thats where I can mount guides and accessories.

A couple of washers under the edge guide to level it maybe?

but then the roller is no longer flush with he needle plate

First photo it's level with the needle plate, just needs a washer or two to keep it there. Or am I missing something else that I can't see?

But the roller tip will not be flush when you have the FBA attached AND put washers under attachment screws or am I missing something 😉
