Possible things to try to remedie the problem with glue buildup /thread sticking while sewing through adhesives. Adding more liquid silicone to thread. (Mimic/improve bonding) Some needles also have some sort of coating to prevent glue sticking(i have not tested it) Coating/lubing needle(not tested) I am also curious wether the tread angle into the needle would matter. Seeing your setup riffclown, the angle between thread and needle is extreme, compared to my older viking/husqvarna machines. May be that this angle is beneficial to reduce thread sticking? Like the thread is kept away from the glob of glue on the needle. On my machine the thread nearly touches the glue glob.. This needs to be tested. -

Anyone know the value of these TOTL Hawaiian kites? I picked these up from a garage sale no damage or holes. -
Hi, I would suggest these. (As standard I believe Prism Hypnotist comes with 26m x 68kg.) https://www.bilboquetsport.com/fr/lignes-et-poignees/1643-jeu-de-lignes-2x25m-60kg.html I use these very good lines at 70kg (or 50 kg in light wind) but they are not currently in stock. https://www.metropolis-drachen.de/en/Kites/Stunt-kites/Flying-line-control-gear/Climax-Protec-set-2-x-25m.html Benson kites are only currently made to order, there is no other online stockist of his current kites, but he does send them all around the world. Send a email to Tim (info@bensonkites.com) and he will give you all the information you want. Regards David
