When I bought my longarm...I was conscious of the fact that the floor in my studio had bouncy well sprung floorboards. So to stop my machine and frame from moving around I cut four of these disks from an off cut of my heavy duty kitchen carpet and installed one upside down (carpet to carpet) under each leg.....
They worked really well, my frame didn't move and there was no vibration at all!
One solution would have been to install castors designed specially for my frame....but they cost £££'s!
I installed one of these sliders under each leg with the plastic side down on the carpet and the foam upwards and now I can slide that very heavy frame in and out bit by bit when I need too to give me those extra six inches that I need to smooth out those curves!!!!!
"Voila"!
Where there is a will there's a way!
ReplyDeleteAh....you are the clever one....good job.
ReplyDeleteYou are one clever cookie! I have pieces of (very rough cut) carpet under the legs of my heavy cutting table...its on porcelin tiles - and I can give it a shove when needed - so I understand what you mean
