Improve needle placement accuracy with the HQ Pinpoint Laser Accessory – HG01005. This adjustable laser provides a clear visual reference for positioning the machine needle at the start or end of a quilting design, making it useful when working with motifs, borders, edge-to-edge designs, and other quilting patterns.
The laser can be adjusted for precise alignment with the machine needle. It connects through a USB port and is compatible with most longarm machines equipped with a front USB port. Handi Quilter also specifies that it can be used with other longarm or domestic machines without a front USB port when powered with an optional USB 2.0 wall charger and USB 2.0 Type-A male-to-female extension cable.
