Product Description

"The hat hoops are GREAT! So much better to use than the ones that come with the machine, very fast and easy to hoop and put on the machine, I should have bought them sooner" Joann P, Holiday FL.

The Dream T-Bar Gauge is basically the same as the 270 T-Bar Gauge with a few changes.

The patented HOOP TECH Framing Gage features the exclusive T–Bar Tensioning Arm.

This tensioning arm gives even the inexperienced cap framer the ability to frame a cap tight…even low profile un-constructed caps.

It’s the easiest way to stretch a cap tight!

Once you try it, you’ll be amazed at how easy it can be to frame a cap!

The Dream Frame is not included in this package. To add the Dream Frame please see the Recommended Accessories Section Below






NOTE: When using hoops on your Brother machine that are non-Brother hoops you may have to do a trial layout. Make sure the needle or foot will not hit the frame when it is sewing.

  • *You must have an existing Cap Driver from the machine manufacturer to connect to your machines

Comparisons

HoopTech vs Brother Cap Equipment Systems: Thank you for the question. In addition to the larger sew field, we have a few other differences. Starting with the T-Bar Framing Gauge that replaces the framing gauge from brother. Our gauge is adjustable, making it easy to lay the material down on a structured cap, unstructured cap, bucket caps and visors. It also has a T-Bar to assist in stretching the material so the customer no longer needs an extra set of hands, bag clips or rubber bands. The Gen 2 frame itself provides much better registration while holding the backing in place for the customer. The better registration means way less needle breaks and bunching of stitches. I have added links below to our best demonstration videos on the T-bar and Gen2. These should help highlight the features I have just outlined. Please let me know if you need anything else. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3IO73fwb48c&t=45s how to use the Gen 2 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yzzvcLV-pgA - structured caps i.e. Richardson https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wScd6bPM3pk - buckets ad visors using Gen 2
