Several years one manufacture had a tilt on the market. I carried my Dad to the shop , he measured and came home and made one for me. It is on a 2 inch slant (2 inch measure on the back), and put a lip on the front so the machine want slide off. This has been about 10-12 years ago. I love mine and carry it to classes and retreats with me and use it everyday at home. Now that my Dad is no longer with us it means even more and is a wonderful reminder of him each day.

I use rubber door stops. Helps my neck and shoulders immensely! :)

okay, time for a stupid question .... do you tilt the machine up at the back or the front? My machine sits on a dining room table. It seems to me I would need to tilt it up at the front???

I usually only remember once my back starts hurting, BUT yesterday i remembered to use it all day. Still got a back ache but maybe not as bad as it would have been!
I have the rubber door stops (a pair)

Yes, I use the tiltable stand for my machine. It keeps me from getting a ache in my neck.. and back.

I have a clear vinyl tilt stand for the Pfaff. Have used it for piecing but it doesn't work too well for quilting.

I used to tilt my machine using the inexpensive rubber door stops and they did help. But now I have a sewing table that allows my machine to be built in, which works even better.
