I messed up so many hats. Even had my wonderful tech show me how to use it on a routine maintenance visit and he had the same troubles. So, I gave up hats and haven't done them. Well, 2 years later, the request for hats are becoming more and more common for me. So, I think I'm going to have to break down and buy a hat hoop. Which one should I invest in and which one works the best? I don't even know what I have, but it's not the one my technician said I should have gotten. Oh, I have an Amaya XT. Thanks for any suggestions.
