    I am checking to see if you need any help <wave>
    Tip: We took zip ties/wire ties and attached a power strip to the middle leg of the frame, then the power strip runs over to the wall for powering your machine and stitch regulator.
    We never did get the light cord to stretch the full length of the quilt frame, but you might <g> ...
    (Trying to think of adjustments we had to make in order to make it all work)
    I am hoping no news is GOOD NEWS! <wave>

    What great suggestions. I'm almost half way done setting it up and I'm so excited. It does take a while. I want to use it now.

    Lost in the land of the boxes, pictures, and directions. How fun!
    Did you do as I suggested and purchased the pre-made leaders for the take up rails, too?
    Your boxes look very familiar, so you can tell it is going well. <wave>

    Good luck, we are not good at putting things together. I hope it goes very easy for you, looks very difficult to me.
