Well, I did join the Baby Lock Longarm Quilting Community FB group, and It is worthwhile, but I did not find answers to the question I asked here. Looks like we are the first people to want to convert the Regent to a stand-up moveable machine on a frame. I can't believe it is so difficult to find information about this. The Regent manual states near the beginning "Because the Regent is upgradeable to a stand-up frame quilting system, there are components found on the machine that are not used for stationary machine quilting (such as threaded holes for handlebars)." (emphasis mine). My question is "How?"...
We will be making the trek to the dealer in the near future, but none of the Baby Lock "experts" on the FB group seemed to know anything about it. I am not hopeful....
