I finally stitched one without a needle break! I took all of your 
suggestions:
- 2 layers of backing
- increased material thickness
- pushed presser foot back slightly away from needle
- lowered presser foot a couple of notches
- used conventional cap frame

Thanks to all who helped me get through this. No offense when I said I'd 
check out other machines, but I was ready to throw it out the door when I went 
through a pack of needles without completing a cap. 

One more question though, do you guys lay down some solvy on top to avoid 
sinking into the fabric?
