Members Warpe Posted July 14, 2011 Members Report Posted July 14, 2011 Today was a good day! Just received my CB3500!! It is sitting there all assembled and just waiting on me to start stitching. Won't be until tomorrow though since i ended up having to rewire the room (old house wiring). But hey!! Tomorrow is another day!!

Contributing Member Ferg Posted July 15, 2011 Contributing Member Report Posted July 15, 2011 I guess I have had my Consew for about 6 months. Wife felt about the same way but since I have made several things requiring sewing she is enthused also.

Members Warpe Posted July 16, 2011 Author Members Report Posted July 16, 2011 I am finally getting familiar with its functions, now just fine tuning the tensions and the foot pressure and practicing my stitching and by the end of the weekend, i should be stitching my first project!!!!! I was really surprised at the weight of the machine and how quiet it runs. I am seriously happy i let people on this forum talk me into purchasing it!!

Members Rayban Posted July 16, 2011 Members Report Posted July 16, 2011 Bob advised me to leave the bobbin tension alone...any adjusting should be done up top.....just an fyi.... Quote Raybanwww.rgleather.net
Members Warpe Posted July 16, 2011 Author Members Report Posted July 16, 2011 Bob advised me to leave the bobbin tension alone...any adjusting should be done up top.....just an fyi.... Sounds good. I haven't seen an issue with thread or bobbin tension, it is mostly feet/dog pressure that i have to lighten up to get rid of the track marks. Thanks for the heads up info.
