Question about a Horn Sewing Cabinet
 
I just bought this nice (used) Horn cabinet and have a couple questions. Hoping someone might have this model or one similar...

Do you know how the little table on the left door stays up? This one seems to have the leg missing, but it doesn't show a place where it was.

Also what is the tan curved plastic thing inside by the lift for? Am I missing something I need?

Maybe you can see the completed model on hornofamerica.com

Can you post a picture of your cabinet? I have two but I am not sure what you are asking.

I don't know, but could the plastic thingie be a knee control? I used to have one on my old Singer. It takes the place of a floor pedal.

That may be a lever to move the lift up and down. A knee control would come as part of the machine not the table. A knee lifter controls the presser foot and the foot pedal controls speed of machine. Perhaps you could call Horn and ask about the panel. By looking at the knobs on the sides it may go inside the cabinet as a shelf. If you look closely at the drawers inside the cabinet they have the same knobs. Just a thought. I think you are missing some pieces!

The beige plastic thing on the left hand side is where you place the wooden insert on top if you have an acrylic on for your machine. it hold it in place :)

What happens if you pull the draw out will it fit on that?

I tried setting the table on the lower drawer and that doesn't work either...it extends into the seating area.

Do you know which cabinet it is? There looks as if a piece of metal that pulls out from right side of top draw. Then it looks as is something fits into the top of the door also on the left.
With the cabinet number or name you could definately get help.


Quick thought looking at cabinet again. Will the door open wider tobe level with rest of cabinet . And will the door fit at the end of the cabinet left side onto the door . Then a leg could be missing.
