    Doing just great.
    Just measured my available sewing area and then traced the size of the opening and also the height that was needed and then took it to our local Lumber City store and got them to make it for me.

    I have often wondered why they do not make sewing machines for left handers.

    I dont think that it is such a easy thing to do because of the cost involved and there are not as many left handers as right handers.
