Does anyone do tattoos?

I just bought another tattoo machine. Its on its way i ordered it couple days ago.

just wondering if there are any other tattoo artists?

if so what kind of equipment you use?

i am gonna try out a Valsturd 8 coil liner and 10 coil shader its a pretty cheap set up so i thought id give it a go.

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.

There is a huge advantage to making your own needles. 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.
