Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need to use the same thread in the bobbin as the top?

Sulky FAQ For Longarm Quilters
No. In fact, I will not run 12 wt both in the top and bobbin. It is simply too much thread to fit through the clearances around the shuttle. The rest of the Sulky lineup of threads can be exactly matched, but many times I will choose a finer weight of the same thread because more of it fits on the bobbin. I prefer 40 wt. Rayon or Poly Deco in the bobbin when running Holoshimmer, Sliver, or Metallic in the top.

How do I know a bobbin is good to use?

Technical FAQs :: Mustang Survival
When you buy a Re-arm kit, ensure that the "install by" date printed on the package has not been passed. If the "install by" date is not legible, check the manufacture date printed on the bobbin and ensure it is not older than 3 years. If installed in an inflatable PFD with a 1F Inflator, the bobbin should be replaced at least every three years in case of recreational use and at least every 2 years in case of commercial use, or more often in extreme conditions (i.e.

How is bobbin thread trimming accomplished on your machine?

Gammill Professional Hand-Guided and Computerized Longarm Qu...
If the thread trimmer only trims the bobbin thread, it is only doing half the job. Since the operator must trim the top thread, we feel it is better to simply push the single stitch button on our machine and bring the bobbin thread to the top side, where both top and bobbin threads can be trimmed simultaneously. This method also eliminates the need to go back later and trim all the tags of thread left by all bobbin thread trimmers.

How many strands of thread should I use?

The Fox Collection - Australia???s premier online-home shopp...
If you buy a kit, you should use the number of strands recommended in the instructions, otherwise you may risk running short of thread. Generally though, the number of strands is a matter of individual choice. On 14-count fabric, two strands are usually recommended, however, many stitchers like to use three strands for denser coverage. Three strands on 18-count, will probably be too heavy, so two strands are probably best, but it is a personal choice.

WHAT THREAD SHOULD I USE TO SEW BRAS?

Bra-makers Supply .com, make bra,bra patterns,bra making sup...
When it comes to thread, you have a couple of choices, as always. If you want to dye the bra afterward, you need a dyable thread, so it would need to be either cotton or nylon (yes nylon dyes extremely well!) I recommend the Nylon Lingerie and Bobbin thread T-101, or T-102 for my classes, but it only comes in white and black. It is dyable, but if you are using red fabric, for example, just use a good quality polyester thread.

How do I spawn a thread?

Andy Mc's .NET Framework FAQ
Create an instance of a System.Threading.Thread object, passing it an instance of a ThreadStart delegate that will be executed on the new thread. For example: class MyThread { public MyThread( string initData ) { m_data = initData; m_thread = new Thread( new ThreadStart(ThreadMain) ); m_thread.Start(); } // ThreadMain() is executed on the new thread. private void ThreadMain() { Console.WriteLine( m_data ); } public void WaitUntilFinished() { m_thread.

How do I stop a thread?

Andy Mc's .NET Framework FAQ
There are several options. First, you can use your own communication mechanism to tell the ThreadStart method to finish. Alternatively the Thread class has in-built support for instructing the thread to stop. The two principle methods are Thread.Interrupt() and Thread.Abort(). The former will cause a ThreadInterruptedException to be thrown on the thread when it next goes into a WaitJoinSleep state. In other words, Thread.
