chainftw Report post Posted October 3, 2020 Hey All, I'm new to the Sewing machine world . I just got a Techsew 5100 SE, used but in great shape ....but.... The backstitch will not line up with the holes on the forward stitch . The stitches are farther apart then the forward stitches . I'm pretty good with working on stuff but I have no manual to tell me anything so I have been learning on line and this site, so thank you for all the help I have been given thus far by many on here ! I searched this but can't seem to find any info ... Thanks !!!! Paul Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
