Re: [sudo-discuss] embroidery sewing machine needs needles

we got the embroidery machine working!!! it's totally awesome. tl;dr we need needles! who will order this ebay item? http://www.ebay.com/itm/25-MEISTERGRAM-INDUSTRIAL-EMBROIDERY-MACHINE-NEEDLE… it takes a little coordination though, because it's an industrial sewing machine with a clutch pedal to engage the motor - and it's very powerful. So it will sew very rapidly and you have to steer the needle around the pattern at a rate matching the sewing rate. it's kindof like driving a ferrari in that way. anyway, it came with a single needle and it is broken now. We need more needles!!! we have plenty of everything else. it uses weird needles - they are the normal length (1.5") but their upper shank is 1/16" diameter which is smaller than standard sewing machine needles. http://www.sewingmantra.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/11/sewing-machine-needl… the machine is a Meistergram model M'100 and it uses the same needles as the M700 / M800 like the ones in the ebay item are for. if you order these needles, write to the list so we don't end up with 50, although i'm sure we'll need them if we use it enough. -jake _______________________________________________ sudo-discuss mailing list sudo-discuss(a)lists.sudoroom.org https://lists.sudoroom.org/listinfo/sudo-discuss
