Yikes! Need some positive thoughts for my long arm machine!
I have a Gammill 2006 Classic Plus long arm that I bought used from a deceased guild member in mid-2013. Some replacement parts over the last 3 years, but basically problem free. In the last 3 months I've notice a very faint metal-on-metal skreech when I'm quilting. Finally called Gammill rep today--he said that I haven't been using enough oil (which I had cut back on cause book talked 5-6 drops while he's saying12-15 in the one spot) and concern is if I don't get it all "oiled" and broken free, that internal bushings will freeze up and cause major problems. So oiling like crazy but sure hope I don't have other problems between now and Jan when they can send a tech to my house!
