LAers, do you have a bobbin case gauge?

I have seen the Towa bobbin tension gauges, and they look to be a very useful gadget, but how many of you have one, and if you do, do you use it regularly?

I was just at the quilt show in Pheonixville, PA and was having a long arm demo on the A-1. The tension was a bit off and I asked the woman about it. She got out her TOWA and demonstrated how it was used. Seemed really cool! Wish there was one for my Pfaff!

Yes but some experienced longarmers will eyeball a quilt top to see if it's on perfectly straight too... and some of us will measure it. :mrgreen:
Just sayin'...

Thank you everyone who took the trouble to reply. I think I will wait for a little while until my HQ16 has arrived, to see how it performs, before I go ahead.
