has anyone ever attached handles to the ends of a 400, or machined some

the ends? some decent handles might've been the saving of a few 400's.
Dear All,
The ex-BJH machine has proper picky-uppy slots in the rear in the same place that my EMI machine had air vents. There are additional wooden surrounds inside and out to strengthen the arrangement and make it more comfy to hold. This makes lifting it easier which is a good thing as this one seems to be a fair bit heavier than a standard M400.
All the best,
Norm
