Hi there! I live in Maryland! I’ve been embroidering for 3 years on my 2 beginner Brother 1-needle machines. I mostly make patches and some of them are very detailed and take me over 2 hours to make due to the slower needle speeds. I’m looking to upgrade and am realizing that many of my patches have 10 colors or more but I don’t,want to spend $10,000-$20,000 on one either. I have a really fabulous guy 30 minutes away from me who works on my machines because these machines constantly break down because they are low end machines obviously. He would most likely be able to repair and maintain my machines. This video was really helpful to me and we all appreciate your honesty and truth-telling, because not everyone does that, so thanks again for this great video!
Bro thanx for the TRUTH, I just brought my machine about 2 months ago and its good to know somebody is out there that I can reach out to get information from
I've seen you post in the Bai group. Thanks for sharing your knowledge with us noobies. I've actually had my 2-head Vision machine for a long time and haven't been able to even get started yet. Machine embroidery is no joke. The amount you need to know is overwhelming. Needles, threads, bobbins, stabilizers, maintenance, digitizing, etc etc. It is a LOT. Of course, getting started and getting some experience would be the best teacher. :)
Love this! I am going to buy a used Mirror 1501. This is my second multineedle to start my fledgling embroidery biz. Are you saying the Yakima hat hoops fit the Bai Mirror? Boone NC here. No garage business yet but I’m busting out of my craft room ATM.
Thnks bro I have a Bai machine and you're 100% correct about no technician and just online, time difference and language barrier. So so so bad. I bought mine 2 yrs ago and I haven't really start up and running hhhhh. Yes I started and have so many needle breaks and I just stopped hihihi. I did tried the online tech from China but not the same as face to face tech sorting out the problem. There were not many videos on Bai back then and I am glad you have a video on this machine so I thank you. It really helps us beginners and encouraging to go forward and be patient. I am from Sydney so someone is coming tomorrow to look at my machine and hopefully he'll solve the problems. Wish you the best for your business and hear more vids in the future!
Good morning boss, I just bought The 15 needles one head Mirror model, I am a very beginner, I am trying to get the machine to embroider a monologue on a different color on any other needle but needle #1, I can change the color in the machine software but it will always pick needle #1 ( that’s where White color thread is )?
Junior is there anyway we could link up via a phone call or something? We bought a v22-2 machine. It’s been working fine until recently. The THREAD CATCHER is not working properly. It does not catch the thread and pull it back. How can we fix this issue??? The machine is new and we bought it 6 months ago. Please help!! We have orders to fill.
Okay I watched your video and my grandson bought an embroidery machine its a opex 1201 and I'm mechanical inclined i could use your help with the threading of this machine.i would appreciate any help you can give me
If I don’t know anything about embroidery, how can I get trained, a specific place or person that do these trainings, or does the company include the training? . I’m thinking about buying this exact machine the bai mirror to start out a hat business.
Im seriously thinking on getting my bai machine! Im just a little concerned since I don’t know the brand! Do you recommend to start with single head or just make an extra effort to get the two head version!? Thanks!
I’m in Hawai’i no help here at all. I fix my machines by you tube learning how each machine operates. But I’ve been doing custom embroidery for years since 1985 but took a long break in between. Started up again last year. Doing well learning new machines and software.
