Re: Best machine for caps
Hi, Thanks for the replies.
I started in embroidery about 18 months ago, moved into a shop one year ago and now need another machine. My Barudan is a super machine but I had heard that the Tajima could be better with caps. After your comments I will stick with Barudan.
I am having a slight problem with my caps. As I said before , when they are framed and on the machine they sit about 1mm above the "hole". So when they are stitching the fabric bounces with every stitch and this affects the procission of the design. Maybe I am using the wrong type of cap. Normal cap with a mesh inside for stability. Sometimes I use a backing , sometimes not. Always with the same result. 1mm over the hole. ( Is there a name for this hole?).
Maybe I should go back to class and learn how to frame a cap.
What do you find is the best cap for the job?
