milli vanilli Posted May 11, 2010 Posted May 11, 2010 i don't do, i just get i've got the 4 symbols of Led Zeppelin's Zoso aka Led Zeppelin IV on my calves. 2 symbols on each Quote
DontShootMe Posted May 12, 2010 Posted May 12, 2010 I have a Solo liner and a Flatline shader. Twin 2.5 ohm coils. Make my own different needles then autoclave them. The downside is they are pricy. almost $300 each. I built my first one from scratch for about 40 bucks. Quote

You can always get the shapes and sizes you want and that suit your style best. I prefer a 6 barrel for darklining insted of the 7's you can buy. My star pattern allows for a calligraphy effect that you cant get well with the drum style 7. I also have the benifit of a fully stocked parlor at my disposal so it is both cost effective and easy to do. Quote
