Ideally, I wouldn’t want the big frame on the floor like the weightless quilter has... I’d like clamps to my table instead.

That's funny!

Thanks for posting this - I think I'm going to try making something like this (but a lot shorter, of course) to set up on my cutting table, which sits right behind my main machine.

I bought the SR2 from from Sewing Machines Plus a couple years back...it's no longer offered. If you have a machine with a large enough throat ( starting at 11 inches) it's worth it to be able to move the machine and not the quilt around to finish your project. Of course if you don't do a lot of quilting, is it worth paying the money for?

Would these options work for you?

I like what Patsy thompson offers much better. And the price is much more in line also.
