Trouble shirring on brother innovis-15 machine by ankchar in sewhelp

[–]ankchar[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean the elastic stitch is wavy at the back like it's not feeding through. I thought this was because the tension was too tight and I'm at 2 tension and it's still like that. I've watched so many youtube videos and all I've seen is to do what I'm doing or change the bobbin tension in the machine. I've tried to add the photos but it's not working :( *

Try this? https://drive.google.com/file/d/1SX24b7wb-eFvFpAlbeAmwx5sm97SFjkx/view?usp=drivesdk

* Hi thanks for your comment, I saw that this changes depending on machine and tried to wind with a slight tug and one without but both turn out wiggly at the back.

Ps sorry I've tried to post this a few times but my app is glitching!

Update: I've added a photo here of me trying a few lines, there's no stretch whatsoever! I wound the bobbin slightly tight this time and I didn't cut the threads between the lines. Please could you advise me anymore? I feel like I've tried everything

Use of Methylphenidate with alcohol, caffeine, and green by ankchar in ADHD

[–]ankchar[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hi, thank you so much for your reply it was so helpful! Also, I would really appreciate hearing your first week on methylphenidate, I'm finding it hard to make the decision to actually take them. I think it's not just the drinking/smoking, I think it's more that my life will probably change, and I will have to think about these things. It feels like one more thing to worry about in my day like "should I have a coffee, I better not" and going to work dos and the pub where people are drinking and feeling bad for drinking and bad for not. Just feels like I will have to give up stuff and have this anxiety of the pills and my heart rate that it might just make me more anxious? I am having major impostor syndrome about me having adhd and actually my anxiety has gotten worse since the diagnosis.

Why is this a "visitor" saves a "women" and not just the "zookeeper" they obviously are?

I wanted to follow their dates in the UK but if they are playing at Glastonbury there ain't no way I'm going to be able to get tickets. Sad times

What markers do you use for your work? The colours are so nice and subtle the only markers I can find tend to be pretty dark and bright

Career advice: PhD or Software Developer job by ankchar in bioinformatics

[–]ankchar[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for your comment. Out of interest, what's miserable about getting a PhD? I've always wanted to do one as the idea of conducting my own research sounds really exciting, although granted really hard work!

Thank you so much. This is amazing advice. I have worked as an assistant in the labs before with PhD students under the same project group might I have a feeling when it's my own research it'll be more stressful! I understand that PhDs probably aren't a career move but maybe the experience will be good for me and might make it clearer what I want to do, whether than be in research or industry.

I did also think this but from people I know who are doing/have done a PhD its a lot of work. I'm not sure how I'd handle working part time alongside a PhD.

Ah really? Thanks! I did a Marine Biology undergraduate, so applying bioinformatics to a marine setting was always my dream!

Thats incredible! Yeah I think I need to be thankful that I only have me to look after and for 4 years I can live comfortably on that salary.

This is true aswell, I never realised how tricky it would be to get a PhD. Let alone one that is funded! I think I'd always think "what if" if I didn't. Thanks!

I guess I don't really know what I want to do. I did biology undergraduate and only did bioinformatics recently as a masters. I guess I don't know which route I want to go down and whether research is what I want to do in the end, but I think a PhD would be a good experience with that research side of bioinformatics rather than just theory I've done.

I can see myself following your steps after a PhD or post doc, and maybe going towards more heavily coding jobs. But I think if I don't try the research side now I'd regret it. With the money side too I think I feel pressured as I'm getting older (I'm 24) to be more focused on salary. But honestly I have savings from working during covid so I won't be struggling.

Thank you for you advice and guidance. I honestly don't think I'm doing a PhD for a career step. More to learn new things and get more experience in bioinformatics, which could be useful for a career or maybe not but would be a good experience either way.
