I am ordering the king thread stand that snaps on the top of my Dreamweaver Machine (for cone thread). I have found a few different numbers online so really think I should purchase directly from my dealer, as she know which machine I have. I think it'll be around $80, which seems like a lot, but I use cone thread for my FMQ and right now I'm using a thread stand that sits next to the machine. I'm short on space, and sometimes the thread is getting stuck, and I hate it when I am going along with a nice rhythm and ll of a sudden, my thread has an issue.
Thank you, ladies, for your info on the dock and truck strikes. That's probably what it is. Also thank you to those that offered help, but the part is pricey and I think this would be a special order item for most dealers.
