problem fabric, small lettering and magna-glide bobbin

[Shuffletown Embroidery]

I am working on a design with small lettering and was getting ho-hum results using 40wt and 60wt thread. Several sessions later I tried a magna-glide bobbin. Sha-zam! Big improvement!
I was using acti-feed in all cases, but what a difference that bobbin made for both the 40 and 60 wt threads.
Has anyone else had such a life-changing moment with the magna-glides? I'm ready to switch. Any reason why not?

We were using them in our Toyotas before we replaced them with Amayas. The magna glide works fine so we saw no need to change.

Magna Glide? Where do you buy it? Sounds good. I've always had medicore results with lettering below 0.2" tall.

Thanks,

It's made by Fil-Tec. Most suppliers seem to carry it now. It costs about twice what Coats paper-sided bobbins do. Definitely worth it for a job like this. It may be worth it in general!
