Lenni Wheels

[MaryVC10 0]

Just checking in to see where we are with ordering the new carriages. I am still interested. I hope this can happen!

Wow, I had my UII for 14 years and I would poop out before y legs did. I only replaced the wheels once. Zeke.....

Is there any update on the carriages for the Lenni?  Mary

When I first got my Millie 2006 [ used] I felt like I was trying to push a coal cart,lol It was not much fun to try and quilt with. Having had an Ultimate II before I knew something was wrong. SOOOOOOO I braved the inevitable and readjusted the wheels and it is as smooth as butter. Also I clean my wheels and tracks with silicone.Much cheaper than the alternatives that you all suggested. hope this helps Carol there is a video from apqs about this for free

Has there been any progress on getting the new carriage and wheels for Lenni?  I will be getting $300 and am ready to invest it in my machine.

I just sent an inquiry to them to get a progress report.  Have not heard back yet, sorry.

That is wonderful, but unfortunately for these Lenni owners with the original steel table, the wheels are not adjustable like the Millies and they are also the old black wheels, that are no longer available.

I am also interested in the new wheels

Patty, have you heard anything more about the Lenni carriage and edgerider wheels?  I am going to have to try something to make my machine manageable.

Does anyone know when APQS started putting the horizontal wheels on the Lenni? I just sold my Gammill Classic and and I'm thinking I might want a used Lenni. 

 

Thanks,

You might try spraying some INOX MX3 on the roller wheel bearings.  You might also try putting some Renaissance Wax on the rails after you clean them.  I put some Renaissance on my George table, and it makes the table slick as ice.  The quilt just glides across the table.  Jamie Wallen says it makes your machine ice-skate.  You should be able to get both items for under $30.  Good luck.
