I've seen a few comments about Singer Futura Sewing Embroidery machines so I wanted to share this with those in case it helps someone.
I have a Futura and received less than stellar service from Singer. I will tell you I was about to throw the darn thing out since it was stopping before the end of most every design....that was if I could even get it to embroider at all.
Well, long story short, DH asked me if I wanted him to take a look. He noticed that the pins where the embroidery unit joined the machine were bent. I gave permission (since it was a huge paperweight anyways) for him to bend them back. It WORKED!!! For a few short designs...the long ones it would quit.
This time he took it completely apart and troubleshot the inside. There was a small (maybe a 1/8") size chip that was loose. He soldered it and I've been embroidery like a mad woman since before Christmas.
Just thought this might help some folks.
