sewing machine extension tables

you know what I mean, those plastic things with adjustable legs that you can put round your machine to have a larger surface area supporting your work.

Any idea where I would buy one? Any particular brands available. I know there is a local store that orders them to fit your machine, but that sounds expensive, I'm looking to get a cheap one!

If you google 'acrylic sewing machine tables' all the various manufacturers/types/dealers come up - all prices are variable with shipping costs - it depends what size you want to have and whether you want to have any added features or not. jennellh

Anne have a look at the one on my website under other crafts. I made a cut out of the machine arm in cardboard and took it to a glass supplier. He cut me a 24 inch square of 6mm acrylic glass and then cut the slot out to fit round the arm. Cost 20pounds. DH then made some wooden legs 7 larger ones and a smaller one where it rested on the front of the machine. He drilled holes and screwed the wooden legs also he drilled two small holes at the corners of the inner edge of cut out so if the glass did crack it would not go further than the holes. Shirley

another option is get a big cheap table, maybe a fold up one so you can put it out of the way when you dont need it. then cut out a place to fit your machine perfectly. add a shelf underneath for your machine to sit on so the bed of the machine is flush with the table top and bobs your uncle. theres pix of this in action somewhere and from what i read its not that hard to do. probly cost ya no more than what you want and you'd have a whole table.

shows the machine flush but has a big shelf.i was thinking using maybe perspex or wood and some U shaped brackets to attach it under a plain table top.i've been searching off and on all day and can not for the life of me find the pix. i'll check some more tomorrow and when i find it i'll post the link. off to eat dinner soon. jeanne

The very expensive one that came with the Pfaff is not fragile unless dropped on a hard tile floor. Roberta in D

I purchased a Greer Mate for my Bernina about 3 years ago. It heavy duty and doesn't have those plastic feet that can break easily. Google "greer mate" and you will find. It's adjustable to any machine

- so you don't have to wait for a special order. It may be a tad more expensive than others but it is very very well made.

I just bought a beautiful wooden extension table for my FW. The man who made it did a great job; it even has a little depression cut out where you'd want to be able to fold up the end to get to the bobbin area. If you're interested, you can see them at . NAYY -- just very impressed with his workmanship and his service. :)
