The first thread I ran through it was Mettler cotton, which I have lots of but no longer like. I then switched to Mettler Poly, which I've gotten as freebies along the way. The Juki just laughed at me. Then I tried Superior 50 wt. cotton...pffttttt. Then I tried with Aurifil and here's the last line of stitching I did. This is stitched at 2.0 which is my usual for piecing. It's not too bad. There are some good suggestions here that I think I'll try. Maybe it's like most other basic mechanical things and needs a break in period. Battle Axe, the humidity in my room varies between 45 - 60%. I have a paralyzed vocal cord so I need a higher humidity. How does humidity affect sewing? All the rest of the features I love....solid, good weight for my table, pretty, love the needle up and down and the cutter. I bought a set of LED lights to make it brighter. That's a game for later though.
