So you when measuring, you don't run the bobbin thread trough the pig tail? Is it the same for the other L style bobbin tension gauge?

[@EchidnaClub]

@petiovishneski1510 If your bobbincase has the pig tale and you normally run your thread through it, then yes you do.

do you know what bobin type a Tajima machine uses?

[@EchidnaClub]

@TheBizzyBScience Which Tajima embroidery machine do you own?

Tajima uses an “L” type DB

Your tensions are wayyyyy too high. Absolutely nobody recommends that much tension

We find this setting works the best with our threads. With different threads you would adjust accordingly and in the end you need to find a setting you are comfortable with.
