Beachside Quilter Posted November 12, 2010 Author Report Share Posted November 12, 2010 Thanks, everyone for all the nice comments! I love to recycle and the instructions said to "recycle or repurpose" the old rails and carriage. I'm still thinking of what I can do with the carriage, hmmm?? Lisa, I got my SmartKing from newegg.com for about $400. Mercedes, my husband drilled 4 holes in the table leg support and used 5/16 hex head bolts (like used to assemble the table legs) to attach the old truss support and rail to the table leg support. Yeah, Dave, I got my air compressor at Harbor Freight. No more canned air and I just loved having it right under my table. Marilyn, yeah, you can never have enough storage!! Thanks, again, for all the nice comments! Vickie Oliver Beachside Quilter APQS Rep SW FL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bonnie Posted November 13, 2010 Report Share Posted November 13, 2010 Hmmmm....I wonder if Geno can make me something like this, but then that would mean that I would need to remove the storage units from under there. What a GREAT Idea for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

klwheeler Posted December 11, 2010 Report Share Posted December 11, 2010 I might want to make my old table a 14 ft long drafting table with legs of its' own and folds up to the wall when not being used. Hard to put under my Millie a shelf and like to use the whole space there for boxes of batting and other tables slid under it holding stuff.

Kueser Posted May 18, 2011 Report Share Posted May 18, 2011 Got my new Bliss system yesterday and we were discussing what to do with the old rails last night. Thanks for the idea! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Primitive1 Posted May 18, 2011 Report Share Posted May 18, 2011 That is very cool! But the first thing I thought of was where would "Buddy" my dog sleep while I am quilting? But I love how you have everything right there! My DH and I were just talking this morning about UPS's as we are having alot of storms this year...
