+1 on all the above.Originally Posted by ljcsov
I call it a sewing machine.
I have even used it to hem my gf's jeans.
Last time I checked, my balls haven't shriveled up and I can still deadlift over 500lb

Thanks for answer my "WTH is a thread injector?" question
I'm a seamster! Ya got trouble wid dat, Buddy?
I'm sorry, I just have to say it folks. It's a sewing machine for corn's sake.
I know, I know. "Thread Injector" is clever. It's cute. It's even accurate to a point.
It's manly to inject.
But come on. Really. Don't be embarrassed to sew.
Say it with me now.
It's... a... sewing... machine.
HFG out
Yes!! It's not like it's usually called a doily maker or something like that. It's a "Machine". Nothing wrong with a man using one, not demeaning or anything.
If a "sewing machine" is good enough for me, it's good enough for any guy out there.When I use the excavator, I don't need to call it the " Soil scooping appliance".
I usually use "stitcher" because I just can _not_ deal with some one being a "sewer".
I may be slow... But I sure am gimpy.

Important thread injector guidelines especially for Newbies
Bobbin Tension - A Personal Viewpoint
I thought it was a bit silly at first - ok, maybe "amusing". Then I discovered that it already has an abbreviation in the list, so now I use PTI because it's easier to type. Usage determines language elements. There are lots of words that have synonyms. Call it whatever you want.
Hammock Forums could easily use a jargon sticky. You might see a thread that goes, "I like using a SB with my DIY DL, and use whoopies and biners, a CCF pad and a bug sock. My buddy has a WBBB 1.7 DL with a CF cat tarp, and 900 UQ that I lust for. Another buddy uses a SBDL 1.1 that is pretty cool. I rigged up a GTUL for my kid, but he wants a Claytor."
Makes the thread injector thing easy
I joke around to my friends and family and refer to myself as a "seamstress" now when doing diy projects.
