Great video!!! I will add to check the needle direction too. This has happened to me on several occasions. If your needle is not set in the correct direction (even just slightly off) it can cause your thread to shred. Loved the info, thank you for sharing!
I’ll add one more thing… because this happened to me. I had thread shred on every needle, did all the troubleshooting and still couldn’t fix it. Turns out, the timing drifted off. So eyeball the needle position relative to the hook at 200 degrees. If it’s not lined up, your timing is off. Pretty easy fix on these machines but you have to hold your mouth right. 😊
HAH! That's so true!!! I have had this happen as well. I like to use the other end of the needle threading tool to hold my needles while I insert them. It helps keep them in the right position while I screw it back in.
Sorry I missed this question! Kayla has a really good video on this - I do not yet, but I will cover it in the future: th-cam.com/video/bdj9ukMHSUM/w-d-xo.html
Great vid but I'm having false thread breaks. Not thread break actually happening but the sensor stops the work and sounds off all the freaking time as if there actually is a problem when there isn't one. This is so frustrating...
@@soyborne.bornmadeandundone1342 oh wild! I didn't know they made embroidery machines! I knew about a nice little sewing machine a few years ago though. I couldn't get it in the states. It was only for sale in Australia :(
I have a single needle embroidery machine and it snaps all the time. Went through all the steps. Took it in for service. Still snapping. At this point I think the case has warped slightly and it is binding up the thread. Next test is running a test with the case off. Fun fun
Is it a dedicated single needle embroidery machine or a combo with sewing? I'd agree that something seems wrong about it if you've done everything you can, PLUS service and you're still getting problems.
I'm back, any advice for getting axis error repeatedly? needle is going off axis right in the seam....i've done every tip i've seen on yt and it's still an issue....so frustrating. everything should be good! It's not even flagging....so what could be causing this? please and thank you
One needle of my machine isn’t going through the fabric. Any idea why? It keeps saying thread break. I changed the needle, oiled up my machine, made sure there’s no lint or thread in the bobbin area and im lost.
When that happens, the only way I've found to fix it is to take a picture of the stitch count in the design, back out of embroidery mode, then back into embroidery mode, set the stitch count manually from 0 to where it was when I took the picture, then start from there.
You shouldn’t ever need a 90 needle unless you’re embroidering tough leather, like a saddle or something similar. Stabilizer isn’t needed for structured hats like the ones in your video, Richardson 112s, etc… and even then, a 75 needle is more than enough. The majority of consistent thread breaks are the result of bad digitizing, too many stitches in too many directions too close together. If the thread breaks are in random spots, it’s usually a burr in the eye of your needle.

Love how you do videos and the amount of information was awesome! Great personality!
Sehr schön erklärt. Ja es ist schon wichtig auf die richtigen Einstellungen zu achten 👍
Danke!
Best Shirt Ever!
Thanks! I have it for sale on my shop! Link if you want it: fiercekitten.com/products/witch-trials-unisex-heavy-cotton-tee
I would suggest going to 75/11 Titanium needles. They are the best for structured caps.
Aaaaand there's my reminder to change out my needle. 😅

Have you filed a ticket with support? Not sure if you have a Ricoma or not.
@@fiercekittenz nah it's a toyota esp 9000 one of the last machines that toyota made for embroidery machines.

I hate to ask, but have you called support?? I called them up and we facetimed fixing it remotely.

Who do you use for your digitizing?

Don't hold the hat down.... I sewed my fingertip... lol
OUCH OMG
