Unsure Why I Would Need A Wax/lube Pot On My New Machine

Recommended Posts

I'm awaiting arrival of my new Cowboy CB3500. Looked through the accessories but will have to build up funds a bit before buying anything extra. A lube/wax pot is one option, but a search here says no results found (for wax pot). Why and when would I need one? Are lube pots an electrically heated tank for lubing the machine's parts or the thread? I expect to be using only synthetic threads, not cotton. Thanks. Don

LOL. The lube pot is not for the machine's oil. It is for the top thread, in case it is too dry. In that case, one can pour liquid silicon in the pot and route the thread through it.

If you sew much, you will probably run in to thread that is dry and fuzzy and gives you nightmares if you don't lube it and smooth it up

Forgot to thank you all for the answers the other day. Thank you! Don.
