- So we have been growing and growing fast! We have purchased a lot of equipment and will be moving into ANOTHER warehouse in a few months. I haven't even learned how to use 1 machine but if you can use one then you can use 12 right?!

I have honestly given my EMT-16x an honest workout for 3 years and want to get rid of it. I have never been able to solve my issues because Melco blames the digitizer and the digitizers blame Melco. I use well know, respected digitizers and here is how I know it is Melco....
I can sew 2 flats (polos)...one will sew perfectly without issues while the 2nd will have constant thread breaks and a ton of missed trims despite not changing a single setting or material between either of them. In terms of Richardson caps...my EMT16x stuggles and the quality sucks after all the sewing issues getting through just one cap. I have done all my maintenance, always check my acti-feed & presser foot adjustments before each job and done head timing, hook timing, and other adjustments to no avail. I use Magna-Glide bobbins and Madeira threa exclusively.The back of my sewout always look like someone puked a pile of thread out and it is full of loops and bobbin thread going from one color change to the next without trimming. I have given this machine about as much of an honest, patient try and am looking into a Barudan machine now to replace this one. Good Luck but if you have ANY problems like I do, you will only be made to loook like an incompetent, unskilled embroiderer every step of the way.
Pretty confusing out there in the market -- I've watched people who love their Melco's and those who have pushed their Melco's to the corner of their shop and never powered them back on.
Congratulations on the booming business brotha! Love to see people come up in the world. Keep hustling!
Thank you so much!!
Stay away from Ricoma, there in Florida and Chinese, they bait and switch on the financing show low and switch to high primarily targeting low income folks. Henry Ma, Mao, anyone bueller?. Melco is awesome and the service AREA is what folks need to keep in mind. Happy in Texas is good and brother is great for the home folks. Melco would be my choice as well.
wow Jason. We wish you all the best!!!
Thank you!
That's awesome! I can't even get one, it must be really exciting. Hubby don't want me paying that much for that machine so I am just hoping that someday I will buy one. Would really love to see it and try it out! Congrats on your business!!!
I only have one and would love to have another!
I see a few comments about thread breaks and bobbin tension...how has that been going? Can't wait for the update video!
Thank you for the awesome review! We look forward to watching your business flourish. Please let us know if you have any questions along the way!
When are you doing a shop update? I would love to see more about your business
Hey! I will have a video update by the weekend!
Cool, I am just about to get three of these bad boys, looking forward to start embroidery.
Thats awesome man! Let me know what you think when they come in!
@@jasonpardue Can you give us updates on how they are performing?
@@jasonpardue One other thing, rough idea how many machines is a good number for one operator?
@@marksavage3906 yes I will be doing an updated video this week!
@@marksavage3906 if they are set up I don’t see why you can’t have someone run 12 machines at once. I mean they will be steadily busy for sure but it’s definitely possible. Just depends on the job as well. Some jobs take 2-3 minutes and others and take 20 minutes so that’s a factor too
How are you going with your Melco's ? I have been having heaps of problems.
At the end of the video what was that vacuum type attachment you are using on that hat?
That's just a steamer, it helps get any marks and blemishes out of the hat
How much does it costs roughly to have a design or drawing digitized to use for your products?
I got a 95% refund of the 3 Melco's I had, had them for a month, problems problem's. Made the decision to send them back before it was too late. Tajima or Barudan or nothing,
You got me curious but how much do they cost?
They are usually around $13k/machine give or take but we bought 12 machines at a show so our per unit price was a bit cheaper.
@@jasonpardue Awesome, I will check them out... Thank you so much!
@@GINASUMMERS1 absolutely!
Just found your video I'm looking to get embroidery machine now that you have had it for 2 months what do you think of machine?
Hey Todd, Right now I have a love hat relationship with the machines. They have a really hard time embroidering certain hat styles but I have also created some really great products with it as well. I'll be doing a follow up video about them soon.
What is the price of the machine??
Usually about $13k
@@jasonpardue Thanks bud
I have Melco and Tajima , if you try Tajima is way better quality and not many thread breaks as the Melco , Melco Is very bad for hats and 3d puff
Yeh We are getting quite a bit of thread breaks, we have been successful in getting some good runs without any issues but it's like once a problem starts it takes a while to get out of the rut. I am definitely interested in Tajimas for our larger runs.
I have a Ricoma mt-1501 and I found that when you do hat, slowdown the machine and you should be good. Plus check your tension and get good thread. I use Madeira. Good luck and good idea about the single heads but I wonder what is the price difference between a 6 head and 6 Melco?
