  1. I have several tables, some came with the machines and some were purchased at auctions. DH did make one from a plan from Rocklers. The drawers are a bit hard to open but may have to be planed and waxed a bit more. I have several commercial machines with formica topped tables. Only the one DH made has the lift as the DSE is in that one. I use it mostly for the embroidery but it is good for piecing too. You don't have to remove the embroidery unit to do regular sewing. I only have one portable a 221 Featherweight that I rarely use unless I am doing a demo at sewing guild, although the last demo I did I used my 9900 Singer. They wanted to see how to use attachments, creative feet etc. I never close my machines. They are in use every day. Merry Christmas to all and a Happy Healthy New year too.
  2. I do not know how to post pictures and am lucky i can even find this site on the internet. I do not have time to ppp as you call it. I sew all day for others. Have a DH who is not in good health and needs lots of help. I will call tomorrow and see if someone knows how to get the beeper going before I take the machine apart. I am not new to sewing machines. I have over 60. I repair them for people too. I am even sending some of my treadle machines to the Amish in Lancaster PA to make room.
  3. I asked the other day why my stitch regulator no longer beeps. Someone was complaining the beep bothered her but mine quit even though it still flashes the light. I only use pantographs so i have to keep looking at the laser light and then the regulator light so I get off track. Is there any way i can fix it myself? i only do quilts for myself and to give away as they don't turn out very well. I tried to sell some but no one is interested. I have donated some too. This machine was $18,000.00 so i feel it should work better.
