I use the WACF, the raised needle plate and standard tension. for 6-panel structured caps, I set the number as hight as 18. For unstructured caps, 13 or 14 may work best. Each of my machines takes a slightly different setting for the same cap. I always click the presser foot all the way up and then down one click. I watch the stitching, maybe down another click if the thread breaks several time. Looping a tiny bit, lower the standard feed one number. Machine clattering on bottom of design, raise the design up a little, It is like cooking; to get a perfect simmer, right size pot for the burner and make adjustments to the heat.
