    Shazam!! Another injector discovery!

    So this is what that double needle is for!! And I always wondered why there were TWO spool holders! Looks really easy and the results are top notch! Can't wait to try it on the edges of a new hammock!

    haha thats great. now i have to see if mine will take two needles. it will definitely shorten down on the time it takes to do two rows.

    That's great! A word of caution: There is only one bobbin thread serving both needles, so if one row of stitching fails, they both fail. That being said, it is a fast and professional looking way to finish a hem.

    Ditto Pecro..... Strength is not a forte for this setup. It is intended primarily for decorative "top stitching". That said... It can lend a real nice finished look to the project. Just don't depend on it for mission critical stitch lines.
    I may be slow... But I sure am gimpy.

    "Bless you child, when you set out to thread a needle don't hold the thread still and fetch the needle up to it; hold the needle still and poke the thread at it; that's the way a woman most always does, but a man always does t'other way."
