It is 10' long, still have to put the ends on the table frame and put angle irons on it for the carriage to sit on. I have the carriage pretty much finished as are the side boards.

Carriage has the knobs, gears, and other boards on it.

You can see the rails lying along side the frame

WOW! Not only is it pretty, but what a great way to save a LOT of money on a LA system :D:D:D

You're constructing this yourself!!?? :shock: WOW!!! :shock: I would love to have space for a frame like that!! I'm not sure if I would even have a room that could house it!! I guess there is always the basement even though it isn't a finished space. :roll:

Yes, I am making it myself. The carriage pieces and side bars I bought online premade from Jerry Miller on Ebay. The rest came from the lumber yard. I had to replace one side board on the table and it was to bowed and was pulling the 2x6 down and I want things straight.

I got the end boards put on today, it is sanded and ready to stain. Hurrah. Thanks all.

It will cost me around $300.00 by the time I'm done. Not to bad.

Wow! Someone is putting a lot of time into that. Enjoy!

I'm very impressed!!! It looks like it will be very sturdy when it's done. I have a Handiquilter frame and want to upgrade to something more solid. I'm leaning towards a Grace Pinnacle or Hinterburg frame. You're doing a great job! :thumbup:
