I have an ancient Big Red with the original DS software and do most of my own 
digitizing because we do a lot of large scale (8"x16")designs with vines, 
crosses, flowers etc. for church vestments, altar covers  and the like.  I'm 
still having many learning experiences, but I'm very glad to find this site 
because we are located in a very rural area, are poor as church mice, and can't 
afford a tech visit.  I used to get help from a very nice young man named David 
Trevathan at Melco, but he's no longer there and they want to charge per minute 
even to talk on the phone.
Since my machine is so old I thought I should probably check my cable tensions, 
but found out that the parts to do this cost over $400.  Now my machine has 
started sewing satin stitches in the lower left quandrant of the largest 
tubular hoop too wide.  A general problem with wide stitches occrred a few 
years ago and David had me grease my x rails more often - problem solved.  Now 
nothing I do seems to help.  I was going to do a test design with wide satin 
stitches in various locations around the hoop, but first I'd like to ask you 
experts for suggestions.
