It wouldn't hardly move anyway. I did do the sewout with the bobbin detection off. This was a new test sewout just to see how it sewed I set the setting high, 35, because of the high pile carpet and have also experimented down to 20 but still got false bobbin breaks and I could see some color thread out the back so left it at 35. BTW, I only get the false bobbin thread breaks while doing this project. Anyway, I have finished a good sewout of the logo. The stitch density is just enough at 0.4, but the carpet backing is rather stiff and more density may cause thread break like I had in the first sewout. I am leaving it and calling it good for a quote to the customer. If anybody is interested in the final settings I used to embroider on home carpeting, here they are: Super Solvy topping, held lightly with pins on strands of pile Hooped two pieces of cutaway backing 2oz. Carpet held in place on hoop with pins around hoop edge. Density: 0.4 Primary underlay: Standard Secondary: none Fill: #4 Actifeed: 35 Manual Speed: 550 Bobbin thread break detection: Off. Thread break detection: On Thanks for all the input, everybody. That's really cool how the detector works in that silver bar. :cool: =========================================================== The AmayaUsers Mailing List Website: http://www.amayausers.com Discussion Board: http://www.amayausers.com/boards Subscribe/Unsubscribe: http://www.amayausers.com/list ===========================================================
