I did a sewout with these parameters: speed: 350 (Maybe too cautious, but it sewed okay and I only needed to do this logo design 3 times) acti-feed: manual, 40 (the carpet is 3/8in) density: 0.2 Primary underlay: standard Secondary underlay: standard different angle Stitching: #4 fill Backing:2 layers cutaway backing. Regular poly thread and 75/11 needle I hooped the backing, then used spray adhesive and strong sewing pins to hold the carpet in place along hoop edges. On top I used a heavy-duty Solvy topper held in place by pins just catching some rug around the hoop edge. The test sewout was a big letter A about 2 inches high. Results: I got decent thread coverage sewout with frequent thread frazzling and false bobbin thread alerts. I used Masterfil thread, then changed to Madeira, no diff. So I will keep testing. =========================================================== The AmayaUsers Mailing List Website: http://www.amayausers.com Discussion Board: http://www.amayausers.com/boards Subscribe/Unsubscribe: http://www.amayausers.com/list ===========================================================
