ormondbeach Posted April 7, 2015 Report Share Posted April 7, 2015 So of course I'm on a tight deadline & of course my machine is acting up. I've got a panto I'm using the laser light with & for some reason, in the middle of stitching the row, the laser light is shifting & I have to rip out half of what I do. I've tightened the laser screw & the long metal piece that screws into the machine & I make sure they are both tight before beginning, but it still moves on me. Does anyone have any ideas? I was able to quilt half this quilt successfully before this chaos began.... Thanks! Robin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barbm Posted April 7, 2015 Report Share Posted April 7, 2015 Make sure that the lock nut on your mounting rod is tight, too - that's what keeps that rod from shifting from vibration. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks! I tightened it with a pair of pliers. Now to finish ripping out & I'll test it out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That solved the problem! Quilt is finished! I'm off to bed- thank you so much! Robin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barbm Posted April 8, 2015 Report Share Posted April 8, 2015 Glad that took care of it, Robin! I have to admit that I had the very same problem when I first started... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
