Yup, in my hurry to get something done last night, I didn't run the trace and
about 500 stitches in, my needle hit the hoop and snapped. I stopped the
machine right away but then noticed that the offending needle bar (#12) now
sits a smidge higher than the others. When I try to sew on that needle bar, it
goes up and down normally but clearly isn't getting "deep enough" to catch the
bobbin thread so it results in a thread break about 6-8 stitches in.
Can someone tell me how major this is and if its something I can try to fix
myself? You don't need to yell at me for my stupidity, the wife took care of
that yesterday.
I ran the machine for 175,000 stitches afterwards without using that needle and
didn't get a single thread break.
thanks
Tom
