Thanks,

It's always nice to here the updates. I got that chuck for my power screwdriver and it works great for winding the bobbin at an even tension. I finally got to the point that I can adjust the machine when changing thread sizes in just a few secs.

I really love this machine.

I would check to make sure the thread is coming off the spool/cone smoothly. Sounds like it is binding slightly someplace between the spool and the needle every few stiches.

that exact thing happened to me and i didn't notice until it really caught, the thread coming off the spool going up through the metal guide on your thread stand thing wasn't helping the cause either, i had to bend it to keep this from happening. once i noticed it i payed attention to it and it was doing it more and less depending on what part of the spool of thread i was at, more of a problem at the bottom obviously. someone told me to use a little spray of silicon on my roll of thread and that would keep it smooth throughout the whole machine.

hope this helped

A little time has passed but I wanted to post a follow up to the thread snagging issue I was having. Thanks to Wizcrafts, I placed a plastic funnel over the thread cone and this 100% fixed the snagging issue I was having. ...
