Hi everyone,
I’ve still not knitted an actual garment on a knitting
machine, but I have bought another machine.
I bought a complete heap of a Brother 710. After much
scrubbing I managed to knit a few rows, but it was still misbehaving. I took it to bits a bit further, and have now got the push buttons working properly - it
was selecting the needles almost randomly. There was a screw out of place in
the module of the pattern selecting which was a pig to remove and almost as bad
to replace.
The machine was sold as almost a pile of parts ,but I
have sourced most things I needed for it, but I still need a couple of bits. I
need a top cover/lid for it as the one it came with was for a KH864. If anyone
needs a lid for a KH864 they are welcome to it.
I would also like to source a ribber for the 710 as I
have the connector carriage thingy, some ribber weights and the screws to
attach the ribber. If anyone has any 710 bits they would like to sell I would
be interested. Here are a couple of photos of the state it was in and the fluff
that came out of it !
