CustomDoug Report post Posted October 14, 2012 I've just about ruled out the idea of getting one of the tables or pedestals where the machine's arm extends off the side. The reason is because I plan to use the machine as a flat-bed too, if I can. Unless there are ways of doing so with those tables/stands, that I am unaware of? Then there are similar ones with a much lower left hand section.. they seem a better option, but I don't see how a flat-bed attachment table could be used there either. Any ideas? So.. what I'm thinking is I'll get a set of industrial K-legs and set them at their lowest setting (I'm thinking that's 24"), because that would put the cylinder arm and flat-bed tabletop (that fits around the cylinder arm) level to where a "normal" table's height would be. I'd like a cut-out section under the cylinder arm - mostly for my knee movement since the main table would be set so low. This would also accommodate large projects too I guess when not using the flat-bed attachment. So - are these type tabletops available or will they need to be custom made? I see the cut-out ones in pics a lot but never with a flat-bed attachment. Thoughts, suggestions, personal prefs ? Thanks. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Northmount Report post Posted October 14, 2012 See http://shop.raphaelsewing.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=402 for an example. Depends a lot on the style of your machine table. I made attachment that is wider and deeper. Has three legs on hinges so folds up for storage. I like the larger flat surface vs the smaller commercial table. Small table is fine for many things, but a 3" 3 ring binder needs more support Tom Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Techsew Ron Report post Posted October 14, 2012 These cut out table tops are available and are the best option for mid-range machines as they provide plenty of work area, table area and can hold a flatbed attachment around the cylinder arm of the machine. Heigh is adjustable as well. Our cylinder bed machines (except for Techsew 5100 or 4100) use this reinforced U-table. Ron Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
