So last November I helped them design the brackets so their new 13" x 16" Mighty Hoop could be used on the Amaya. I had the very first 13" x 16" Mighty Hoop for the Amaya before Thanksgiving. It is a very beautiful hoop, and works just as well as the other sizes. I liked it so much I now I have two. The 13" x 16" has a generous maximum sew field shape of 11.8" x 14.8". I just got permission from HoopMaster to let you guys know that it is now available. However, in order to use it on the Amaya, YOU MUST ALSO HAVE the Amaya Tubular Sash Right and Left Brackets (Melco Part Number 32842 http://www.shopmelco.com/product_p/32842.htm and Part Number 32843 http://www.shopmelco.com/product_p/32843.htm, respectively). This is because the wider 16" width of this hoop will not fit your Amaya with the standard hoop brackets. If you already have and are using the Melco 20.7" x 16.8 (53 cm x 43 cm) Tubular Sash Hoop Part #30998, then you probably have the Amaya Tubular Sash Right and Left Brackets. AGAIN, IF YOU DON'T HAVE THESE TUBULAR SASH RIGHT AND LEFT BRACKETS, YOU WILL NEED TO GET THEM FIRST FROM MELCO BEFORE YOU ARE ABLE TO USE THE NEW 13" X 16" MIGHTY HOOP. If you contact HoopMaster to acquire one (or more) of these wonderful hoops, also ask for a copy the HoopMaster Mighty Hoop Setup in Melco AMAYA OS guide that I prepared for them for their customers which has the detailed instructions on how to add custom hoop configurations for the 4.25 x 4.25, 5.5 x 5.5, 10 x 101, 11 x 13 and 13 x 16 Mighty Hoops into the AMAYA OS. Thanks to Jerome in Minnesota (Greenwing), you can also copy the Hoops.mdb to use these hoop configurations in Design Shop as well. However, below are the custom setup coordinates for the 13 x 16 Mighty Hoops. Please note that you will need to add X and Y Hoop offsets as noted: 13 x 16 Mighty Hoop, Max Sewing Field 11.8 x 14.8 X HOOP OFFSET 0.06 in Y HOOP OFFSET -2 in: Point / X, Y 01 / 0, -1792 02 / 1761, -1792 03 / 1888, -1777 04 / 1983, -1761 05 / 2062, -1697 06 / 2126, -1634 07 / 2158, -1570 08 / 2173, 0 09 / 2158, 1570 10 / 2126, 1634 11 / 2062, 1697 12 / 1983, 1761 13 / 1888, 1777 14 / 1761, 1792 15 / 0, 1792 16 / -1761, 1792 17 / -1888, 1777 18 / -1983, 1761 19 / -2062, 1697 20 / -2126, 1634 21 / -2158, 1570 22 / -2173, 0 23 / -2158, -1570 24 / -2126, -1634 25 / -2062, -1697 26 / -1983, -1761 27 / -1888, -1777 28 / -1761, -1792 Cheers and enjoy!
