Max arrived on April 8th.  Linda and Terry Robinson of Santa Fe (new APQS Sales Reps) came to put Max together on April 9th.  I've been bonding with him ever since.

Here are Max's stats:

• 2008 APQS Millennium Longarm
• 12 foot table
• overhead lighting
• motorized fabric advance
• hydraulic lift

Name:  Maximus (because he takes up maximum space and he's a strong machine like The Gladiator)

I wish I could multiply the hours in a day.  I've finished a couple "practice" scribble muslins...Dozer & Ginger love their new "blankies".  Jeff & I still need to install the Micro-Drive, but I still I love working with Max.  The stitch regulator takes some getting used to but it is really SLICK! 

I know it takes time to develop the coordination and movement needed to get him to do the things I want him to do...the things I've dreamed about for so long!  One step at a time...just one step at a time.
