I see she address' this - but I am not sure it would work that easy - all the time.

Shirlene if you knot the new thread to the old thread it will be very simple, it will just be a problem iiiffff the xxxxx thread breaks. Then I will have to use a long needle like the one I have with my overlock machine

My Amaya has those tubes. First tie the thread and pull through. If that fails put a couple of inches of the new thread in the tube and use one squirt of compressed air and the thread shoots through the tube and out the front of my machine. So easy it is scary. I also have a long red piece of plastic with a tiny notch in it that came with my Amaya that can be used to pull the thread through. Compressed air is by far the favorite for everyone.

FANTASTIC!!! My PR 600 is in a smaller room and when I use my ceiling fan tangles can happen. I will go out tomorrow and purchase some!
Thank you for this tip!

Hugs, Bonnie

Where do you get the little nipples that the tube fits onto? Suzanne
