Members Cumberland Highpower Posted January 2 Members Report Posted January 2 (edited) I'm setting up a brother Bas 342 Programmable stitcher for some patterns, and I would "like" to use 207 on top if I can get away with it. I've never run anything heavier than 138 in this machine, but manual lists a #25 needle for seatbelts and leatherwork with no mention of thread size. I've also used a special needle in this machine made by GB, that is a "multidirectional" MR needle, but I cannot seem to find them in #25..... Anyone ever attempt 207 on a similar machine? I feel like I am probably asking for too much and should know better, but feel compelled to try it out. Edited January 2 by Cumberland Highpower Quote
Members Cumberland Highpower Posted January 5 Author Members Report Posted January 5 (edited) Ordered some #25TRI. Hopefully they'll work. Was looking at the hooks bobbin cases and hook retaining plates I have for it, some are marked A some B. the B hooks look like they might be for a larger diameter needle? Sound like I'm on the right track? It's a size R bobbin system. Edited January 5 by Cumberland Highpower Quote
