The vast ocean of tattoo gear available is almost unimaginable
these days. You, as a beginner are probably familiar with the
advertisements in the back of your favorite tattoo magazine or
have seen the web banner ads online when you are logging into
your favorite tattoo social network. If you are anything like me,
you study every picture of every tattoo machine you get your
hands on. You have looked at the pictures of tattoo artists, trying
to figure out what they have in their hands. The available range
from basic made machines to elaborate custom designed ones
can be overwhelming.
