I am still getting burrs on my needles after a few thousand stitches. So I will go thru it again. Is there some way, other than eye balling it, to get the correct distance from the back of the needle to the hook basket. It speaks of a measurement in the procedure but how do I actually measure it? Also what sewing test pattern should I try to ensure I finally have it right?
