Incoming- New Barudan 6 Head

(1/4) > >>

Homer:
It's finally time to upgrade, anyone here using one of these?  tips, tricks, pointers? The tension and trimming system seems like it is greatly improved. Hoping hats run a little easier for us, those Richardsons always give us fits. We also have for sale (2)- 1998/99 -4 head barudans if anyone is interested, I'll give you a smoking deal you can't refuse.

DonR:
I have a 6 head 2020 Barudan.  Runs great!  No problems with Richard caps.  I keep the top tension a little more than recommended. I find if it gets to loose or the boobin gets to tight you will get a birds nest jam.  The screws for the needle plate strip easily. Watch out when when you take them out and don't over tighten them.

Rockers:
Good decision to buy now before the 20% Trump tariffs on imports kicks in.
Equipment costs will go through the roof.

excellent, are you able to run hats @ 1k stitches /min like they say? I'm a bit skeptical on that but I'd be happy with 7-800. we're at 500 now and it's painfully slow.

DonR:
I normally run hats around 800 just to be safe
