I do beleive that they are either iron or steel, and yes it is for the magnatism.

i feel the same, hard to beleive with no experience that these are ur tats. BUT I have been proven wrong before. If they are truely yours, you are heading the right way into this business :D , if not, fuckin poser :twisted: . ciao!

my power supply knob is small enough to fit an ink cap over. I just place an ink cap on it, when im done, throw it away. barrier protection at its cheapest!

i think so bc you tend to move your hand faster at first, bc when u watch a tattoo, it looks so fluid and quick. This way, u will have a faster machine that will be able to be adjusted to your hand speed. just be careful, bc those things can become razorblades if ur not careful enough!

yeah im getting ready to order the two that you sell and im thinking about getting a stealth rotary, not sure if aluminum or lite version, but ima give it a go.

Cutback machines are cutback on the frame at the front binding post, allowing it to be adjusted to bring the contact screw further back. This will cause the machine to run faster and hit a lil harder, and u usually have to get cutback front springs, or cut your own. Usually this is a one pass liner setup.

I think this is good work man. Keep it up, post more pics! What needle config for the tree and blossoms? What ink brands? Any special techniques that you had to use?

thanks!

well since i last posted on this thread, I actually purchased a pressure cooker for about $20. i made a spacer so that my metals dont touch the actual water, I put it at 15lbs for about 20 minutes, i have autoclave bags, and this works fine. I have had my cooker spore tested every month, and without a negative test. The autoclave bags have an…[Read more]

just my info, but i dont own a single machine that has matching parts. If u got a Huck spalding frame, Eikon coils, Pulse springs, then what machine brand do u call it? All im getting at is this, is ur frame a huck, and everything matches, or do u got different parts from different manufacturers?

Oh and i do spore samples monthly on my pressure cooker. bought it brand new just for this reason. I have the autoclave bags as well that turn black when done right, and you know what? ITS NEVER FAILED :o :shock: ….cheapest home remedy out there. 8-)

I agree with u Hated. Disposable is the way to go. But the truth is, an autoclave IS a pressure cooker. :o research it. Most shops and regulatory factors state to use an autoclave at 15lbs of pressure for 15 minutes. I do the same with my pressure cooker for 20, and THEN place in a sterile solution. I may have worded this thread wrong at first, i…[Read more]

i understand what people are trying to portray to me,but sometimes people overthink a question or comment. All i was getting at was that I got a pressure cooker,which is an autoclave without a pressure guage. I do 15lbs of pressure for 20 minutes, and then soak in alcohol. If the people that bash scratchers would have read my post in its entirety,…[Read more]

OW….thats all i got to say….i tried o put a small heart on my palm and it hurts, man!

try to add different weights of lines. One size lines makes a tattoo look bland. I can see where u are going with the tat, but try to put some thicker lines in there. Also, u may want to try to wash your grey down. looks like just black to me, it would help with the blending and gradience. other than that, ur on ur way man! keep up the practice.

looks great, but reminds me of a cheeseburger for some reason….MAN im hungry!!

nice work! when u put in the skin, post a pic man.

sounds good, man. thanks for the info will def put to use.

thanks will work on that!

thats some professional art man. right on.
