Hi everyone, thanks for letting me join this wonderful community. I hope to learn more thing about my wonderful pastime which is tattoo.

Thanks for the information and the links. I wonder if getting an apprentice cost that much. Hope I can afford it.

[LauraP]

I would like ask where to buy the best tattoo machines. Any link or store you suggest? thanks :)

Just starting out how to tattoo. Thanks for sharing these information.

Moisten the area on your skin where you will apply the design using a small amount of water or glycerine-based deodorant.Press the carbon side of the tracing paper design onto the moistened skin. Press down firmly with your fingers and hand to ensure that the design transfers completely.

A clean machine is important for the health of your clients so learn how to clean it after use. Assemble a sanitary wipe, a proper cleaner or a mild bleach and warm water mixture. You can use any of these products to clean off ink spatter and buildup.Wash off the rubber grommets on the nipple where the needle bar attaches to the armature. People often forget to wash them after every tattoo because there was removable tape on older model tattoo guns instead of grommets.Wipe the whole machine down including the coils, yoke, tube, springs, armature and top and bottom posts. Rinse with lukewarm water and dry carefully with a soft cloth.

I think you need to try another spring for the machine to work.

Thanks for sharing these great information. I just started out learning how to tattoo by myself. I just watch some video tutorials. But I think I can’t handle it alone so I badly need a great tattoo artists teacher. 8-)

You can go to some places like slaughterhouse or you can visit a farm that raise pigs. You can make some reservation of pig skin there.

[LauraP]

You can use pigskin or there are tattoo practice skin available online. You can check it in some shopping sites like Amazon. Oranges, hard boiled eggs, melon, pig ears are all great things to try.

The Koi is the symbol of strength and will, the will to go against odds to reach the destiny. And the Dragon is the power and ferocity. The mystery and Aura. :D

Tattoo school were very expensive. I rather go to seminars and conventions held annually. You will learn so many things from there. You can also view some video tutorials in the internet or reading tattoo magazines.

Try to attend seminar and conventions about tattoo to learn more ideas. :D
