All those machine problems I was having where finally all fixed, now I broke my machine. I accidentally ran over a pin! The loopers are all out of wack they now hit each other and the top one hits the right needle. I just want to cry!!!!
**hugs**
I got a bunch of orders of Christmas after I launched the site ...don't 'cha know my serger went down...about 30 minutes later I ran over a ZIPPER (not paying attention and messing with the baby) with my Babylock ...which is also my embroidery machine and I had embroidery orders!!
DH was able to do a little fix on both, but I know the serger is a temporary fix. Bad thing is I can't afford to go the 4 - 6 weeks they are saying it would take to fix it. Basically when I chain off it "clicks" right at the end, like the needle is hitting down but only when I chain off the fabric not any other time ...
and hugs again I know it can be frustrating. I've replaced my knife twice b/c of pins ...
Oh gees that sucks. We where told it is a peice that costs less then $2 and they can't order until they have a minimum amount to order so I have no clue how long it is going to take. :(

Wow! I went to a serger class a very long time ago and one of the things the lady stressed was to never, ever use pins while serging. I learned. But without someone to tell your or teach you, how are you suppose to learn these things. Its a good thing we have groups lke this that help us learn from each other.
I usually don't or I put them further in to where they would not be a problem, but thus was suer streachy material and a small project so it was hard not to. I removed them as I got close, but sadly I missed one!
