So this is how I took a Cheap Rex machine and improved it to get started in this fun. This is NOT the best way but as I am a Disabled Vet and my only income is my VA check so I had to buy a little at a time,

@Kra z Bill they ain't nothin wrong with your setup, as a matter of fact I'd rather have that than a store bought one at any price because your heart and soul went into building it!! Nice job soldier.

Thanks now to start going thru the videos that I got from john on his black Friday sale and see if I can put it to uses.

Man I wish I had bought into that but I'm such a procrastinator I kept puting it off til it was gone.

@Kra z Bill I like that set up. I have thought about building my own like that but after pricing materials and such I am just going to save up and get the Sailrite Servo motor/table.
However, the ultra feed and the Rex do not have a provision for a knee lever for the pressor foot, but I think that I have a fix for that. When I get the motor/table I am going to experiment with it.

@Cale if you really find a way to make a knee lift I would really be interested in seeing that, That is the only thing that mine does not have and I really want it

@Kra z Bill I was thinking of getting the Fabricator machine just for that reason. But, I think that I can "fabricate" a solution much cheaper.

I like it. That magnetic bobbin holder also has my attention.

I too have been looking at the Sailrite servo motor. Let us know how you like it.

Awesome post! Its good to know that the Rex is a viable cost friendly option. Thanks @Kra z Bill
