My first machine was a Melco Superstar with a tape reader below the table. AND we had font boards we could snap in!! OH THE TECHNOLOGY!! why with that and my FACIT tape punch and my DIGITRAC I was in 7th Heaven! Could charge 200.00 US for a left chest or hat and at least 500 to 2000 US for a jacket back!!

not now typically

The Superstar was all metal.. not plastic. workhorse if I ever saw one.

My question is that if you believe X or Y is the BEST... why not save and buy that? You obviously have your reasons to believe that... maybe you have more experience with that machine and can work around nearly anything.... OR maybe you have service and support close by so no worries with downtime. Whatever it is you have made your decision so why shortchange your clients since you KNOW the best out there?

Plastic?

One of the Biggest reason I'm interested in Melco is because I would like to hoop Button Down shirt pocket.
Currently there is no company who makes it for Barudan, and it's because of the old style bobbin holder.
