      I went with the Arbor Axis 40 which I have found pretty stable and forgiving.

        Orders for the 888's have been flying since last night.

        Lynne got through a chunk this AM and team McCoe has taken the second shift to continue the party.

          It's a great pair of jeans.

                            Is that a bartack machine?? If not, what is it?

                              @sophisto000 it is indeed a bar tack machine, but that’s not all! It converts from bar tacker to a pre-programmed and a bespoke programmable stitcher. It’s rather fabulous and I’ll be showing more of what it can do over the coming weeks.

                              The other machine is a 5-thread overlocker, which we’ve set up to match Iron Heart’s machines in Japan as closely as possible. More to come on that too, but in the meantime here are some bar tacks for you 😊

                                    @sophisto000 even more so on very well-worn denim, which has a mind of its own!

                                        What amazing bar tacks.

                                        As an aside… my iPhone corrected bar tacks to bar tacos so I’ll be stepping out for a bit.

                                            Subliminal messages about tacos have been around for ever. It’s just the delivery method that changes.
