Sorry I missed you! I guess we should have had some chats on the list before we all went to ISS! That way we could have met! It's just so busy at these shows, I feel like I don't have enough time in the day. Apparently, I could have won the laptop, my girlfriend was at the give away, they called my number, but I was meeting with another company and couldn't get over there! Oh well!!! lol Jan Oak Tree Embroidery Oakley, CA jcalahan@xxxxxxxxxxxxx -----Original Message----- From: amayausers-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:amayausers-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Cheryl Rotter Sent: Tuesday, January 24, 2006 3:08 PM To: amayausers@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [amayausers] Re: Name Decal for your Amaya's Jan, Thanks for the info. I received mine in Dec. and I don't have the newest cap driver. Mine stays attached to the drive shaft; it goes on the rail but the drive shaft comes off just like the old ones. I can't use the fancy new pocket attachment, I'm checking on getting upgrades for my 4 new XTs. I know that Melco will take good care of me, they always have. You probably have the newest ones because you did the Beta testing. I think you met some of our crew from Team Sports Ink at the Long Beach show at the launch party, Butch, Carl, Justin. I came up later in the conversation but didn't get a chance to meet you before we left.

As for the upgrade to the Acti-feed, I do love also. I almost always keep it on auto with no issues. Wait till you see how it sews hats, especially doing the puff foam designs. It's like cutting butter with a warm knife!

That is great! I love the re-naming stickers!! My EMT-10 T's are: Bibbity, Boppity and Boo! lol I still haven't gotten the new girl in town named properly... I have been using the new XT Amaya for a time now. LOTS of cool features. The new hat frame connects straight to the pantogram, no driver assembly needed :) THAT"S TOO COOL!!! The sewing field is crazy, I love it!!! The narrow driver is really nice, it'll allow for some really nice different size hoops and frames to be built as add-ons. The new "hoop" is a clamping frame that works with the cap driver, it will allow you to do the inside of a pocket (again, because of the very narrow driver) I see this for cuffs, socks, pant legs, sides of hats and visors...I haven't tried it in shop use yet, but as with most embroiderers I know, I am sure that the uses will be endless. I am really looking forward to Melco creating all sorts of new hoops and frame possibilities with this machine. It sews great, I love the ease of attaching the hat attachment, I think he did it in under 30 seconds??? wow...that is just about how much time I can spare sometimes. The sequin attachment really caught my eye, I haven't tried it, but hopefully someone will have it in shop soon, and give us a report. The new table options are a real plus. I happen to do a ton of jackets, and with this option, I look forward to an even better sew-out ( if that is possible). At first I was thinking I only needed the largest one, and after seeing it, and giving it all some thought, I think I am going to start with the 2 smaller sizes, and then eventually get the larger table. It was fun to see it in the production model at the show!

Some people even had names for that special Amaya. Well we named our 3 Amaya's after our three grandkids.
