Oh...I could have so used that machine last week when I had to rehoop ultrasuede fabric for a 40" x 8" name to be made into a cornice board.

Lots of money to be made in these things!!

ha, thanks.. let me have a BBQ first so I can get all the people to help me wrestle the machine into place and reattach the front table.. I figure a few cases of beer and the studio should be put together..... of course the next morning I may have thought this out better. lol

Y'all are good for a laugh!

Thanks for sharing.

It has one 1000mm by 1000mm sash. nearly 40 inches square. The sash stays on the machine so you clamp on all four sides.

Robert,

You really should post a video of that running on youtube.

here is a pic of the first thing we embroidered using the machine... see the dollar in the lower right side for a sense of scale.
