sylkamode Posted January 19, 2007 Report Share Posted January 19, 2007 Hi you all Long Arm quilters, Question: for a couple of months I have the Circle Lord to set up with my APQS Millennium. Because of quilts to quilt, but also because of the setting up, I have not been able to set the Circle Lord yet on my machine. The thing is: for setting the Circle Lord at my Millennium, I have to raise the Millennium, getting it off from the bolts - and it is so well set now - and putting another bolt under the machine. I am so worried about this raising the machine, despite what Michael from Loricles mailed me - I am sorry Michael, not that I don't trust you, but again, my machine works so fine now, I am afraid I will ruin the way I can handle the quilting. Has anyone of you have experience with putting the Circle Lord at their Millennium, and can you please tell me if the extra bolt was any problem? I hope to hear from one or more quilters, since I really would like to work with circles, spirals etc. Cannot wait for your answer(s) Sylvia Kaptein Sylka-Mode www.sylkamode.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
circlelord Posted January 19, 2007 Report Share Posted January 19, 2007 Sylvia, "DON'T MAKE ME COME OVER THERE!" Seriously, Sylvia doesn't have to put in an an extra bolt, but has to replace a shorter one with a longer one, because of the spacers. Let' hear from someone who has done this, so Sylvia can get going and have fun with her Circle Lord. Cheers, Michael Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Linda S Posted January 19, 2007 Report Share Posted January 19, 2007 Sylvia - I think we all worry about ruining our wonderful machines. When you finally put your Circle Lord on, you will probably be kicking yourself wondering why you waited so long!! You won't ruin your machine, it will still work well, and you will be able to make fabulous designs very easily! What more could a quilter want?

SandraC Posted January 19, 2007 Report Share Posted January 19, 2007 Yes, Sylvia....do it this weekend!!! Or I may have to come along with Michael just to make sure it gets done!!! One of my favourite things is making spirals with my Circle Lord.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BethDurand Posted January 19, 2007 Report Share Posted January 19, 2007 Oh Sylvia, Don't be like me and wait many months because you are too frightened to put on your circle lord! I finally worked up the nerve, and it's absolutely wonderful! So wonderful that when Trudy offered to sell a couple of templates I snatched them up as quick as I could! Don't wait a moment longer!

ramona-quilter Posted January 19, 2007 Report Share Posted January 19, 2007 Ah HA, so you were the lucky one to get Trudy's templates. I think she must have had several replies. Sylvia, my DH made the CL adjustments to the carriage in about 30 minutes. He said the instructions were thorough and easy to understand. Loricles even sent us the wood blocks that are used to temporarily hold the machine up while you install the longer bolt/washer thingy. I got on my machine right away and verified that it moved the same. No problems at all. You will love it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Linda S Posted January 29, 2007 Report Share Posted January 29, 2007 Did you get that set up yet Sylvia? Are you having fun playing with all the designs? Linda Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
