When I got my machine professionally serviced, I informed her that I would only ever be using the Guttermans thread that I bought from DIY gear. She looked hurt and insulted but carried on. (I provided the thread at the time of service.)
When she provided me with my training, she told me that I needed to use size 90 needle. Based on threads that I have read here it sounds like that needle is too big. Is it or isn't it?
Also, it seems like I keep breaking needles. The first time was because I had the zig-zag stitch too wide (a '2' on my machine, but the machine goes upto '4'). All other times (6 needles busted so far) it was when I was just doing 'normal' stuff. Also for the record, I have been very gentle on the unit so I don't think it's my fault.
Suggestions?
