Finger Guard-need advice
I have seen a finger guard mentioned a few times here on the board. I looked it up online and found a variety of different ones. Any comments regarding your preferences would be appreciated. Also, can it be changed from one machine to another or should I buy one for each machine (6). Thanks in advance for your advice. I really don't want another visit to the emergency room because a needle has broken off in my finger. Yikers!!!

Here is a link to another thread I found about finger guards:

Some fingerguards fit all machines; others fit machines with a specific shank size (such as short shank machines).

I don't think many people use a finger guard. Years ago I tried out a wire guard (for my daughter), but did not care much for it. I would think a transparent guard that is more robust than wire would be better.
