I understand that most mid-arms have an 11-17" throat. I would like to purchase one in the 11-13" range. Would that be too big for your original frame? If so, can the platform be adapted to hold a machine of that size?

 I just recently bought some Superior tribal polyester thread that is giving me fits. (I normally use king tut) Do you have any metallic needles for this type of thread, or do you have any suggestions.  I keep backing off the tension, and it will go for a while, then it starts breaking the top thread every 10-12 inches.  So, I back off the tension again.  Should I maybe adjust the bobbin tension?

 I have the Voyager 17 and how can I shorten my stitches with this machine? Right now the length are 5 stitches to an inch. I could not find anything about this in the instruction books that came with it.

 

Is the Voyager compatible with the PC Quilter?

I am using the Hinterberg Stretch Frame for about 3 yrs. I have had the issue where the machine
carriage "jumps the tracks" a couple of times. I heard that puttting two or more supports under the frame
on either side will help that problem. Is this right?

I just received my SLR and found out that the carriage I have on my stretch frame is not able to accept the SLR It is my understanding that a new carriage is available . Could you please let me know how I may purchase this carriage and the price.

I understand t hat it is my QBot is supposed to do some tiny locking stitches at the
beginning and end of a stitchout. Mine does not do that. I've changed the defaults as per the installation
instructions, am I missing something?
 

Does the Indigo machine use the standard Gros Beckert commercial sewing machine needle?

We have the Hinterberg Stretch Frame and I would Like to know if the Mega Quilter will work with  my frame.

  By the way, I love my Summit Frame. I have a Fun Quilter  and would like to know if your bobbin 
winder works for the bobbins on my machine.   

I'm trying to get a sense as to how the V17 - Stitch Length Regulator works.
When the SLR is functioning and the user is quilting with the machine, does
the needle speed automatically come to a stop when the user stops moving the
 machine or does the user need to turn the machine off to stop the needle?

It seems that I saw an add on that was available for purchase that would increase the throat size of my frame to accommodate an 18" throat machine.  Is this still available for purchase?

 I've watched the video and like the zipper to attach the material to the aprons.  I would like to purchase a set, but don't know the difference between the "Quilt Set" or "Machine Set".
 

Is there tools that you can attach to the stretch frame or the voyager machine to sew straight lines?

To use my MQFST I have to slide it out from the wall, and then when I am done I need to slide it back.  In moving it the center leg does not stay straight and I have to get under it to straighten it.  Is there something that can be done to hold the leg straight and not have to get under it to straighten it back up all the time?
