For very fine lettering or very fine fabric I may change to a 70/11 but that is not that often. I don't know what it is but I do not like the titanium needles at all. What I do find out is that I selden changed needles on my EMT but probably due to the much higher speed on the AMAYA I am ending up changing needles much more frequent. =========================================================== The AmayaUsers Mailing List Website: http://www.amayausers.com Discussion Board: http://www.amayausers.com/boards Subscribe/Unsubscribe: http://www.amayausers.com/list ===========================================================
