I have a pe500 and have been told by brother, I can ONLY do 4x4, now this says I can use it with the pe500, if its a 4x4 machine how can I use a 5x7?

Heather, A larger hoop allows you to sew a 4x4 design, and then move down and do another 4x4 design without having to re-hoop. It does not allow your machine to sew a larger design. You are still limited to the embroidery area the machine will sew at one time. Thank you,

Hi, This is Toni, To make your life easier and for comparison purposes, key in "brother SC9500" and click on that machine with the 'Prime' listed when you get to that machine scroll down to BEFORE the listing of the off-site 3rd party sellers, underneath the 'item number and weight and length and width of the machine. It will describe the machine and give the feet... Id did NOT see the 1/4 inch foot listed. Hope this helps,Toni

I don't see why it wouldn't. I believe that the PE 500 takes the same thread as the PE 770, which is what I have and the thread spools work perfectly. If you haven't purchased any sets of thread yet, this is the PERFECT starter set, as it has every color on the Brother color list (with the same color numbers). You can then buy extras of the colors that you use the most (e.g., black). I considered this an excellent buy!!

Unfortunately the only brother machine that is compatible is the 1500 s. If there is anything further we can assist you with please just let us know.

Jerry, sorry but I no longer have the machine and I never did print legal-size documents. So, I can't really say one way or the other. To find out you can visit, http://welcome.solutions.brother.com/bsc/public/us/us/en/doc/manual_index.html?reg=us&c;=us〈=en∏=mfc7460dn_all&dlid;=&flang;=English&type2;=-1There's manuals there that will tell you.

Yes, I print 4x6 and also a 4x6 with 2 pictures on, so I guess that would be two 3x4's maybe? Anyway, you can't print any larger than 4x6 but I am THRILLED with this little printer...it's great to be able to take a picture and then print it out within the same few minutes...wonderful for last minute shots to make a photo/birthday card. Hope this helps!Cheryl

Regardless of the stroke and column extension your limiting factor will be the length of the bit and chisel.The 3/8 and 1/2 inch bit and chisels are the only ones long enough to go through a 4x4, barely. Great machine. Buy it anyway, it will do the majority of your mortising work.

It really depends on your machine. I purchased this and can't do anything larger than 4 x 6 because that is the size my machine is built for. If you can adjust your machine for different size hoops then you can do letters as big as the hoop, which is 4 x 6.75

My understanding is that it works well with one port multiplier. Suggest you ask SYBA support to clarify this for you. Go to SYBA's website, locate the product page for SD-PEX40054 card. Scroll down and there should be a button or link labeled "Ask a question". Click on that button and ask if the card supports two port multipliers and what are the steps to enable that. In the past i have asked SYBA a couple of questions using this method and they responded within a day (or two days on a weekend) with specific helpful information. One final thought here: are you using Windows native/generic drivers for the card? If so, try updating the drivers in Device Manager with SYBA's drivers. Maybe that will offer better performance?

The multi-rotor designs that I have looked at on Thingiverse are a little too big for the build platform on this printer. This does not mean that you couldn't make it work. You could redesign any components to a size that fits the build plate or use a tool like netfabb to slice the components into printable chunks. To make it easier on you, I would consider a printer with a build platform closer to the 200mmx200mmx200mm range.

I've used my Brother PE500 for applique and loved the results! Many machine embroidery designs are made to include applique. Just about any design can be appliqued to a background using a shaped frame design from those pre-installed in the PE500. Design websites have excellent tutorials to guide you.

Jose, I have both the Brother SE400 and the PE770. Neither one will embroider outside their fields. That is, the 400 will only embroider a 4 x 4 area and the 770 up to 5 x 7. You can buy adjustable hoops that you can adjust to use more than one pattern, but it will not increase the sizes. It is only helpful if you are sewing more than one pattern and you won't have to re-hoop. Hope that helps. Sandi

if 4x4 is actually 3.25x3.25- one solution- rotate 4x4 in 90 degree increments. not to convenient but better thaninvesting in a 12" miter saw if the need is limited to hobby or small projects. i don't know about thebosch.

MB can hold 32 if you need it. I run with 2x8 and have no problems. This gives me the option to expand to 32 or 24 if needed.

Im using a MBP and a 4X6 tablet right now...and am going to take back the 4X6 beacuse it is too small and feels "jerkey" to me. It is only about 1/4 the size of your laptop, so a small move becomes a pretty big one onscreen. You may have different needs, as I am using mine for CAD (yes, they are *wonderful* for CAD), so keep that in mind.

There is a 5 x7" (approx) hoop available. The Brother brand and a generic that both fit. This hoop is reposition able by the way it attaches and costs from $22 to $40 depending on which you choose.

Can you also use the auto duplex feature with 5x7 photo prints? I am needing to print double sided invitations on special cardstock and was wondering if I should by normal letter size & cut out or if I was able to just do 5x7 double sided photo paper. Thanks so much in advance!
