The new, but cheapo, Brother machine I had wasn't cutting it. I figured operator error for the longest time but everything was still sloppy and just difficult to learn.
I picked up a used machine that belonged to my aunt that passed away recently. There was already some thread loaded so I gave it a test.
WOW!!!!! Night and day difference. Little, but HUGE things like the foot control being very smooth and variable. The machine has a feature where the first 3 stitches start slow to make sure everything is on track...perfect!! And when you select a stitch, the screen displays the recommended stitch length and width. Presser foot pressure adjustment, etc.
And I don't know if I'm describing it correctly, but the bobbin loads itself. I don't need to manually feed the needle to pull that up and mess with two threads.
Now it's on!!! My ghetto shop that I'll reorganize into another part of the basement tonight...
I don't need to call it a "thread injector" to feel like a man...I just place it in front of a bunch of free weights
