I was just browsing ebay and read about this machine on sale which had been "stretched". It is a regular machine, but stretched to give a 18 inch throat.
Sounds interesing. Anyone done it before? It is not cheap though.

Not cheap but cheaper than a new machine. If you want one done, you need to decide, I understand the waiting lists are kind of long.
Bailey's are stretched Janomes and Rick at WOW started with stretching Singers and expanded to stretching Jukis and Brothers

Goodness, what will they think of next?

I am wondering what gives? I mean when you stretch a machine, do you put additional strain on the drive shaft system? I am no mechanical enginner, just thinking aloud.
pimp my sewing machine!
hahahah!
aileen, with nothing useful to add.....
I love my stretched Singer 201. It's a WOW machine that I bought used for $800. A steal of a deal with a 12 foot table. Love it!![]()
