Norah Posted November 10, 2013 Report Share Posted November 10, 2013 I work full time and do most of my quilting on the weekend. I have a quilt that a friend has made bigger for her grandson, all it needs is the new borders quilted. I had set the quilt up yesterday, and wanted to complete it today. I was able to get two rows in, when something fell out of the laser light.I had this happen to me on the long weekend, same thing, one border completed, 3 more to go. When it happened the first time, I talked to Amy and she told me to put the small metal piece back into the ..... I did and we fixed it on the spot. Well as would have it, I did not get back to quilting today. And thought I can get this done and back to my friend this week. I am so frustrated. I cannot get it to fit properly back into the area that it should be in and I have no reference to how it should look. Consequently, I won't be able to get it done, because I am in the middle of a row, I am stuck until I get the light fixed. The last time I just winged it because I was in a hurry, but I would like to get this done correctly. Does anyone have a picture of what the laser light looks like taken apart. The piece that is coming out is in the area that plugs into the cord . It is small metal piece which hooks over something. Thanks for letting me vent.

Beachside Quilter Posted November 10, 2013 Report Share Posted November 10, 2013 Hey Norah: The same thing happened to me so I have a picture of the way to assemble the light. PM your email and I will send you a picture. I can't post any pics on the forum (I'm out of space) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sewingpup Posted November 10, 2013 Report Share Posted November 10, 2013 my little 9 inch old set up had a laser light that was not run by machine....it just used batteries....could you for a quick fix, just go get a battery run laser light and fasten it to the machine? Maybe attach it with tape to the laser light not working...should work for a temporary fix...I think if you can't get the other one to work....Lin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Norah Posted November 10, 2013 Author Report Share Posted November 10, 2013 Thanks Vickie, Just sent you my email address. Thanks Lin for your idea about a battery operated one. I not sure where to buy one but I will have a look. Get it for backup. Norah Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
