We just finished a large order of Carhart jackets in several of their styles
(Canvas, Denim, some with seams down the back and some without). The small
clamping system worked great for the front chest but the larger one doesn't
work well for the back because there is no place for the excess fabric to go
inside the clamping system. I recommend using the double wooden hoop for
the backs however, we have used the gray jacketback hoops as well -- there
is just a bigger chance of the hoop popping off the jacket. Be VERY, VERY
careful of placing the excess part of the jacket on the tabletop. If you
allow the jacket to hang freely, the weight can start bending your arms down
slightly so you have a tendency to wad the jacket up and place it on the
tabletop. Don't let it raise the hoop up--it is so slight that you wouldn't
even notice it. We did that on one jacket and it raised the hoop arms so
slightly that when the grabber bar went in and out, the tip of the grabber
bar barely caught the tip of the clamp (that you slide your hoop into) and
ripped off our needlecase. We were sitting in front of the machine when it
happened and it happened so fast... Just be very careful and pay attention
to where your jacket is.

Subject: [amayausers] Clamp hoop
Awhile back there was discussion on this forum regarding the benefits of the
clamping systems. I have just landing an account that will require
sometimes up to 2 different designs to be sewn on Carhart jackets, both
small chest size and large back designs. This could be into the 300-400
jackets + per year. I guess I am wanting to know from someone experienced
in using the clamping system for these coats, which system they would
recommend and any other info they could share!!
