Sew Steady table insert to free standing table
I was lucky enough to acquire a 1974 830 Record. It is in good mechanical shape, but the original table was wobbly. I just couldn’t get it to stay level, probably since it was so well used before I got it (professional seamstress). I normally put it in a Gidget II table, and I have the custom Sew Steady insert to fit it. I started thinking that if I could find a way to support that lovely insert like the stand alone Sew Steady inserts, I could have a large, smooth surface to take to sewing groups and classes. DH loves to design custom 3D printer thingies, and he took the assignment on. I will eventually have 6 supports, but only 3 are printed now. They attach with suction cups, and there is a screw adjustment on the bottom. I love it! Note the little needle pack holder; he printed that too.
(Umm. I should have brushed the table off before the picture!)
