Have you tried that?
I've lowered the tension.. then lowered it more... it's down past the 1. It definitely breaks less now that I've lowered the tension, but it still breaks occasionally. And the tension seems more finicky with the non-hopping foot than the hopping one, it just doesn't look quite right every time I sit down and I have to play with it a little. Maybe it's just the nature of the non-hopping foot, I was just curious because I haven't heard other people having the same problem with it.
