My main machine isn't a really high level - a $300 Joann's special, and it does well on the FMQ on the frame, but is a pain to transfer back and forth. So I would like a dedicated machine with a decent throat for the frame, then perhaps I'd actually use the frame - haven't used it in over a year!!!

Any suggestions?

Thanks.
