Moderator Wizcrafts Posted August 17, 2020 Moderator Report Posted August 17, 2020 Perhaps your bobbin is out of round and is binding intermittently. Or, maybe the top thread is twisting out of the tension disks then back in. Check the thread path and quality along the path. Also, make sure you are using the proper needle and thread combination [Reference] Quote Posted IMHO, by Wiz My current crop of sewing machines: Cowboy CB4500, Singer 107w3, Singer 139w109, Singer 168G101, Singer 29k71, Singer 31-15, Singer 111w103, Singer 211G156, Adler 30-7 on power stand, Techsew 2700, Fortuna power skiver and a Pfaff 4 thread 2 needle serger.
Members Darrel Wayn Posted August 17, 2020 Author Members Report Posted August 17, 2020 Thank you for your help. I recently put a new spool of bonded nylon on the machine. That is when the problem started. I have replaced the bonded nylon with bonded polyester and the problem is solved. Thank you again. Quote
