Has anyone ever repurposed a sewing machine table with a air lift for their new machines?

Welcome!

Since they sell those lifts, I'm sure someone has.

Hi and welcome from NY. I don't see any reason why it couldn't be done. You just need the insert so the machine bed is even with the table. A glass place could easily custom cut a piece of plexiglass for you to repurpose your table for your new machine.

Hi and welcome from Ft. Myers, FL. I'm sure it can be done if you can buy the lift only. Make sure your table is sturdy. My machines are on an older type 6' folding table and I don't think it would work. Good Luck Maybe the lift comes with instructions.
