Judy, I was referring to the one with the extension arms. When I began digitizing, the larger square hoop was not available, and I don't know how the actual sew field compares with the jacket back...

Susan, I am interested and sent you a private email.

What did you mean by "spun the bobbin a few times"? It is possible you need to adjust your hook rotational timing and/or your needle guard gap, if the bobbin case is not in the correct position. I...

Could be a number of things . . . Start with this:

I hadn't thought to try ebay or Craig's List; I'm such a dinosaur.

I agree that the extra 1" of length isn't worth the cost, but the extra 5" in height is certainly something I need. With the...

I'll try this one more time. . . I am trying to find someone willing to sell what Melco calls a tubular sash hoop. This wooden hoop requires extended arms (which we have) and used to be a popular...

Thanks for everyone's input. I think I'll just continue what I have been doing: digitizing alignment marks along the edge of each design, then digitizing the alignment marks on the next design in the...

I've also thought about Mighty Hoops for the same reason as privatestudio. Has anyone used these for lining up continuous designs? Does anyone know the actual sew field dimensions for the largest...

There are several possible stepper error messages, so without more info it is difficult to say what the problem is.

I'm not sure what you have read in Amaya Help, but the following is the process...

Big Red or XT? Have you actually done a "bottom center" on these needles to verify that they are not centered in the needle plate hole? Here are some links to narrow your question:...

I don't understand what you are asking. The back-up capacitor is inside the Amaya and allows the machine to return to the state it was in when it was powered down. In other words, if you have a power...

I would tell you to do a search on "PCB board," but because English is not your first language that seemed cruel--here is what I have found; it is a beginning so that you can tell us what you have...

We embroider on velvet a lot. As Judy suggests, first, will this be washed? We usually lay in a layer of Solvy, followed by a very low-density (60) fill running in the opposite direction as the final...

Judy, this has not happened to me, but I understand your frustration. Until you can find someone who knows what to do, here are a few links about knife troubles that have answers from Rod Springer...

Some questions occur to me right off the bat: Does this happen only on one needle? Have you checked your bobbin tension, thread path, and presser foot height?
Sorry that I don't have time to respond...

I think that using a cap driver that did not come set up for your machine is more complicated than just attaching it to the machine. I had a wide-angle cap driver that I was willing to practically...

Good to hear that things are improving. Most of what I have learned has come from the folks on this site. I spend time doing searches on various combinations of words whenever I have a problem, but...

The bounce for testing the bobbin tension is very slight; you shouldn't have to do it so hard that it jerks the bobbin out of the case. A very gentle bounce should cause the bobbin to drop 3-4...

Lots of questions, but first take a look at these posts:

I don't have time to answer, but try searching "thread needle trim." These words should give you plenty of prior posts to look at.

We've had our Big Red since 2003 with only one service call and that was for just a general check-up during which a slightly cracked thread drive gear was found. I think that's pretty good. They're...

One codicil to the information below...my DS version is very old, so your tab setup, etc. might be different.

If you are just worried about overcrowded stitch entry points, go to...

If you do have an .EXP file, you can eliminate crowded stitching without changing the density. My program isn't open, but look under Tools and see what stitch processing options you have. If you...

A couple of the pros with caps recommend pressing the center seam. See the following for lots of good advice:
