My mother in law got her hands on a used 2017 Bernina B 790 sewing machine. She loves it, but apparently the bed is cantilevered out, and it makes the machine feel unstable. Apparently folks are stuffing pool noodles and all that under there to try to solve the problem, but she asked me if I could 3D print something. Unfortunately, she's visiting me from out of state, and doesn't actually know the height from the bottom of the bed to the table (i.e., the length that a 3D-printed leg would need to be).

Is there anyone on the Fediverse who might be able to answer this? I'm hoping maybe @nprofile1q... or similar could pass this along to sewing geeks and reach someone who could help me. Looking to design and print one tonight, and I'll gladly share the design with anyone who asks. Heck, I'll even mail a leg to someone if they can help me get the measurements I need to print one.

If you can get a photo of the bottom of the bed and dimensions, even better. The more info I have, the better I can integrate the design (e.g., if there are injection molded supports, I can design a leg that slips onto those for additional stability). I have no point of reference for this, and everything I can find when searching for this only shows the top of the bed, not the underside.

Thanks in advance!
