If you use a small throat machine (9 in.) you have to be careful what you use for anchoring your leaders.
Red Snapers,Velcro,etc. are bulky and take up to much space on the take up rod. The other rods work fine with these just not the takup rod.
My table came with plastic tubes that fit into the rods to hold the leaders in place but this is not how I want to attach and undo for every quilt. Right now Im just pinning to the leader since it dosnt take up much space and I dont have to take off the leader.
