Hi Mike
Both Thomas Moore Jr.'s book and John Deer's DVD's contain valuable info. Some
of this info will be common to both and some will be unique.
The "Digitizing 101" book tends to cover more aspects of embroidery [things
like fabrics, basic digitizing info, pricing, business tips, etc.] than John's
DVD's. On the other hand, the DVD's go much deeper into the art of digitizing
and will take the viewer from embroidery basics to advanced techniques.
If you are considering buying "Digitizing 101", by all means do it. This book
is a very good introduction to embroidery .... but keep John Deer's "Creative
Digitizing Made Easy" DVD's in mind for your next purchase [especially if you
eventually wish to digitize most or all of your own designs ].
If you like the Amaya and feel comfortable with it, then it certainly can be a
very good choice for you. Also, the Amaya is definitely the king when it comes
to stitching speed.
However, just to clear up a couple of things regarding the Tajima. It looks
like you may have been comparing the full size 2 head Tajima M series machine
to the Amaya and that is fine but Tajima also has another option for you ...
the Neo [200lbs, networkable, etc] which may be worth looking at also.
A couple of more points on the Neo 1) a new model Neo will be available very
soon - dealers now have a few of them 2) if you are interested in the Neo,
also check out the Toyota ESP9300 .... except for some cosmetic plastic and
possibly software, they are the same machine [Tajima head and cap frame coupled
with a Toyota pantograph and control system].
Regardless on which machine you decide on, you should be congratulated on the
effort and research you are doing to find the machine that best fits your
needs. In the end, your shop will have the right machine.
Good luck
Bob
