Is there Longarm and frame for sale In NW. near Seattle ??
 
I am toying with the thought of buying a good used longarm and frame that can be updated or is updated with the auto robotics.. I am disabled, so I am not sure if this is even something that I can manage.. But I sure would like to look into it.. Ideas out there? In my mind , certainly one could get a lot of quilts quilted by someone for the cost of the setup.
thanks for help, ideas, in advance

I bought my Tin Lizzie, 12 foot frame and qbot robotics from Sewingmachinesplus.com with free financing, brand new with warranty for about $10,000. Good luck in your search.

Here is a good classified section

Good luck in your search, IMHO I agree, if you have the space and in your home and wallet it’s a great investment. I love mine.

If you are wondering if you can manage a machine, visit a LQS that has a longarm, or one for rent. Before the huge investment, you can visit and ask questions and/or try it out for a small investment of a class to know how to use it.

Here are a few more links to places to find used machines:

Boersma's is in Oregon about 4 hours south of Seattle. They are the dealer for Innova and may have used machines or demos.

They also have a sub dealer in Washington State, her name is Capri Beckman. She is very knowledgeable about the robotics and very active on Innova FB group. You may want to try contacting her, at the very least she may be able to let you try one out. I could only find a FB page for her

Capri at Boersma's also teaches free lessons on robotics quilting. Just a warning, though, that the robotics roughly double the cost of a longarm.

Yes, thanks. I have been watching all kinds of Youtube videos on loading long arms and mainentance. It looks like that could just about zap me. I think theres a sewing center close by as well... I should get up energy to do that.

Thanks I will check it out. I do use facebook.
