    I bought a Little Gracie II frame from a lady for $100. She originally paid $800 and she just "wanted it gone". So I got it home, got it put together, and now I am wondering what kind of machine can I put on it. Can I use any machine?

    I have a Brother 1500s on mine. It has a 9" throat, which gives you appx 4" - 6" playing field. When I read the manual it said the frame holds a machine with up to a 15" throat. I suggest that you go on line to see if you can read the manual. A lot of helpful info. -- Enjoy

    I have my Bailey 13" on the same frame. Works great.

    Congrats on your new purchase.

    I got a LGII frame with my (used) Bailey 15" setup. I would not recommend any machine over 17" throat space, because the distance between the rods would limit usable space anyhow.
