thequiltqueen Posted June 9, 2006 Report Share Posted June 9, 2006 I have been having trouble with thread breakage all day. I have reviewed all the posts regarding this issue, but nothing has worked. I have had this problem before, HOWEVER, this time I caught the thread right before it broke and got a picture!!! Does anyone know what causes THIS???? It appears that the thread is shredding above the last thread guide. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thequiltqueen Posted June 9, 2006 Author Report Share Posted June 9, 2006 sorry about that picture. For some reason the edit my post option is not available. Not too surprising considering how my day has been so far. Let's try again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ramona-quilter Posted June 10, 2006 Report Share Posted June 10, 2006 Queenie, I know that you have probably already checked the path for burrs, scratches. How about the screws that hold the thread guides? You know how the head of a screw can get 'chewed up' when the screwdriver slips. Check for burrs. Does this happen with all types of thread or just this one. Looks like King Tut. I don't usually have trouble with King Tut. But if it only happens on this one cone, the thread itself may be bad, old or dried out. Anybody else have any ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
