I bought a direkt about a year ago, and from the start it was getting hot and was pretty loud. They suggested I spray it with wd40, and that took care of the noise and the warming up. It was my first rotary I lined with, and it was ok. However, a few weeks ago my coworker bought a direkt, and it's so smooth and great to line with. I decided to try again and bought another one. But again, it's getting warm and it just doesn't move as freely as hers. Anyone else have this problem? Any suggestions to fix it or other machines that work well for lining?
