Just wondering what the difference was between a cut-back machine and a typical machine was… Any difference in performance?

Back “in the day” it was a quick fix to speed up the machine by moving the contact screw. Now you can actually have a slow or fast / hard or soft cutback.

Geometry guidelines of the builder usually suggest…[Read more]

The book talks about the importance of having a yoke on a machine that is not iron or steel. Does the yoke have to be made out of iron or steel? And is the sole reason for it magnetism?

YES – you need a ferrous metal yolk to complete the horse shoe effect of the coils.
It will work w/o it – but better results if you have the…[Read more]

I do not advocate tattooing at home.
But I am also not naive about the tattoo kit sales.
I hope that those of you who have purchased a tattoo kit that also has the Basic Fundamentals of Modern Tattoo book in it (I do not sell tattoo kits by the way), actually read the book.

There are many pages and a few chapters dedicated to “getting an…[Read more]

how much cost of Worst Tattoo Machines ?

Tattoo machiens range from $5.00 to $1000.00
Depending

An average price for a good machine is $150.00
Check out Kingpin for some good ones at fair price

You can also find lots of other retailers for less – and pretty good quality…

Machine does NOT make the artist though

Welcome!
Best of luck!!!

Welcome – best of luck to you!

I have used $500 rotaries, and I have use $100 rotaries… the ones I sell now are my favorite. Especially the softer hitting one – for color blending…
You don’t need to spend hundreds on rotaries..

I like them – and I use them a bit – and w/ good results – but I prefer coils to be honest…

I like it

can’t go wrong w/ PULSE tattoo power supply…

cheap china power supplies are just that… cheap

Blake,
It might be a good idea, setup an appointment.
Best practice is to just make an appointment to get a tattoo at the shop you want a job at!
Then you can talk to the artists and feel the vibe.
You don’t want to apprentice at a shit hole – or a place where the artists are too far up their own asses to help you.

best of Luck
