Umm, I've seen little battery operated small pen sized laser lights at the dollar store with about 6 different tips. There must be a way to rig one up. Has anyone tried to rig one up.

I just saw the machine at the dealer today, and that laser thing really does seem ( seam!) cool. You can also use the pointer to move the needle position and point to where you want to stop.

I tried this machine last week at the AQS show here in my town. It was totally awesome. They had a special pricing for the duration of the show. The machine was $4,500(500 off the retail price when it comes out in October ). That special price also included for FREE a $2,000 sewing cabinet (a really nice model that opens up to a huge table top, with drawrers for storage) and the three piece carrying totes (retail about $250). I was SOOOO tempted to reserve one since it was such a good deal,a nd the vendor is two minutes away from where I live. However, I reluctantly decided I was too new at this quilting hobby, and needed to wait awhile.
