stashed Posted March 19, 2011 Report Share Posted March 19, 2011 Could someone tell me--Is the Bliss system compatable with the RNS Design Boards? Since I put the new Bliss on my Mille, I can't figure out how to attach the RNS Stylus now. And... Does the Bliss System come with what are called the M & M wheels? I don't know if I have them or not... Thanks so much Carol in CA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DawnCavanaugh Posted March 19, 2011 Report Share Posted March 19, 2011 Carol, I don't know about the RNS boards (have you visited with the RNS board manufacturer? most have come up with adaptations for the new Bliss carriage and axles). But I DO know that if you have Bliss, you DO have four M&M wheels on the sewing head. The Bliss carriage uses steel ball bearings to glide along the long rails instead of the M&M wheels. Hope that helps (at least with half of your question!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Borderline Quilter Posted March 19, 2011 Report Share Posted March 19, 2011 Hi .......I had to use the upfront system recently when I wanted to use the RnS swirls board as I didn't have the right sylus holder.....RnS boards are compatible but the Bliss carriage doesn't have a designated sylus holder just yet....Ron supplied me with a stylus holder that is usually made for the Lenni....I haven't had a need to use my boards since though!

stashed Posted March 19, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 19, 2011 Dawn ~ your reply sounds like I do but I don't??? " I DO know that if you have Bliss, you DO have four M&M wheels on the sewing head. The Bliss carriage uses steel ball bearings to glide along the long rails instead of the M&M wheels." I DO, but I have ball bearings instead? Could you clarify that? Also, then, does the Bliss not come with a point of attachment for a stylus? Thanks so much.

witha'K'quilting Posted March 19, 2011 Report Share Posted March 19, 2011 the mm wheels are on the underside of the machine that sits on the carriage. You should have 4 wheels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carol in CA That's right there is no point of attachment for the stylus holder on the bliss carriage that's why I needed to attach the Lenni sylus holder (supplied by RnS) and used the lazer attachment point nearer the back of the carriage......HTH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bonnie Posted March 19, 2011 Report Share Posted March 19, 2011 I haven't gotten around to it yet, but I have plans for hubby to tap and die the new holes in my Bliss carriage for my R&S stylus.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stashed Posted March 20, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 20, 2011 Bonnie ~ My husband is very handy that way, also--I've been talking to him about that, but I wondered if perhaps attaching anything to it would change it's sensitive balance? I don't want to do anything that will alter the wonderful glide it has. Thanks everyone for the info. on the Bliss and M & M wheels. It sounds like I have it all!
