I'm looking to have a riser made for my Brother ULT2003D. Does anybody know who makes them? I'm searching Etsy and Ebay but I'd like input and advice. Does anybody have one and like it? (A riser is a wood shelf that the machine sits on and allows large items to go under the embroidery arm.)

I wanted one and still might get one -- one day...however, the down side is they are not very useful for hoodies and other items like that (things I want to be able to do) as the arm still must be able to move so anything under the machine must have enough space to have the arm fully extend without disturbing the hooped item.

Thanks for the insight. I have some large purses I want to do. I think I should put the machine up and pretend I have a riser to see if the arm would be able to move inside the purse.

If you do this then you will most likely have the machine too high for your shoulders unless you have an adjustable chair height. I went on Craigs list and searched for an older sewing table with a well for the machine. Works great.
By the way love your machine logo. Does anyone sell that as an embroidery download?

Thank you for the tips and I don't know if that machine is digitized. I've seen some antique machines digitized and later I'll try to find where I saw them.

I had never heard of this, so you are teaching me something. A great way to start the day. I do hope you find someone to make this for you.

I bought one from my Brother dealer a few years ago and haven't used it that much. It's very heavy and your table needs to be able to support it and your heavy machine. It does raise your machine up quite high and I found it no longer usable at that height since I have the standard sewing table height. If I can raise my chair to sew on the machine comfortably, my feet don't touch the floor and I have to put the sewing pedal on a box -- the bane of short people. lol I checked the riser box and it's called "Machine Raiser -- P4660885".
