Brenni 50 Posted May 9, 2014 Report Share Posted May 9, 2014 Is there any update on the carriages for the Lenni? Mary Quote Link to post Share on other sites
iquiltit 110 Posted May 9, 2014 Report Share Posted May 9, 2014 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 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
chickenscratch 1,136 Posted May 10, 2014 Report Share Posted May 10, 2014 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. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

chickenscratch 1,136 Posted November 15, 2014 Report Share Posted November 15, 2014 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. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Schlick 4 Posted February 16, 2015 Report Share Posted February 16, 2015 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, Renee' Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Cagey 770 Posted February 17, 2015 Report Share Posted February 17, 2015 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. Cagey Quote Link to post Share on other sites
