My machine park :cool:

In use, at the time;

1 x DirtysDesigns, with 1.5mm bearing-cam, for shading.
1 x DirtysDesigns, with 1.0mm bearing-cam, for lining.

1 x Rotary Works, with 3.0mm cam, for lining / shading.
1 x Rotary Works, with 5.0mm cam, for shading / color packing.

1x Aluminator "The Invader", with RCA mod, for lining, this is one hard hitting machine.


Not in use, at the time;

1 x Stealth Lite
3 x Hoodlum custom build machines.


I only use T-Tech EZ Grips and EZ needle cartridges.

And if you look closely, you will spot my 2 prototype EZ Grips ( rip-of ) in aluminium, hand crafted and improved, especially the weight, because of the aluminium instead of steel T-Tech uses :cool:

Enjoy....

were did you get them grips from?

The non knurled aluminum ones Denner (http://www.rotarytattoo.com/member.php/477-Denner) makes him self.

how do the dirty design machines work? i wasnt sure what to make of them if they were just another china knock off being sold more expensive or not

[Denner]

Sorry for the late answer guys :)

@wing.
I make the grips my self, and there is quiet some interet in them, I am trying to set up a cheep way to make them, right now, what you are looking at is production samples, and they cost me around 100 USD to make a piece :(
But will be doing a "real" and cheaper version, right now there is a lot of stuff going on, so it may take a while......

@andrewc.
The DirtysDesigns machines, are actually quiet nice, they are knock-off machines to start with, but what Sam Dovi does is that he replaces the motor and fits them with a RCA jack, and makes sure that they are fully tested and smooth running before he ships them.
The DirtysDesigns machines wipe the floor with the Stealth Lite :)
I like them because the are light, strong and silent, manly use them for lining and soft shading.
For packing color and and tribal black, I use the RotaryWorks, a better built machine but rather heavy.

I just got the German Evolution Rotary, nice machine, the lightest of the bunch at a 100 grams, silent and I think it will be my weapon of choice, for most of my works, so I will be selling my other machines :)

i got the same two dovi rotaries as well, sam's a nice guy and shipped well quick to the UK

i rarely use the long stroke one though, i prefer the shorter stroke (1mm cam) one for colouring, colour blending and shading larger areas Electric INks colours really suit a short fast throw that that rotary offers.

I cant fault them

Yes Dovi is a nice guy, fast shipping and when living in Europe he ships "customs friendly" and that is a big plus, in my book :)
