Running Carhart jackets

Anyone running Tajima machines that have found a way to run thick jacket backs (Carhart). Thin stock hoops don't work great. Tried some magnetic type hoops, the bigger version did not fit on the Tajima machine.

I did several hundred of these last year and early this year. I used mighty hoops. I also used spring clamps on the mighty hoops to hold them together because the jackets were so heavy they would pull the clamp apart sometimes. But once I got it going everything worked great the spring clams went on the front of the clamp closest to the operator so they would not hit the machine.
Good Luck
