For those of you who like your machines to have "looks" what about this one? (http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=3918384197424&set=a.2416156402668.2107621.1214078526&type=1&theater)http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=3918384197424&set=a.2416156402668.2107621.1214078526&type=1&theater

I like the skull idea, however this looks a little too bare bones ( pun intended ) as it looks like the motor is uncovered and the long spindle length could add up to issues later on. But it is a cool idea.

Looks kinda tacky to me......or tattoo "tat"......Might be a good machine, I used to run one of his Coil Shaders, and it was fine,,,,

to me the skull is too much, this looks like a machine that would be called a "tattoo gun" and sold by an unnamed ancient far eastern country...

I really like the chuck but the rest of it looks like a walkman motor throw on with a old skull ring-but I am sure some one will love it:).
To many areas to clean for me-I like a machine that is easy to keep santitery as does the healh dept and your customers.I think long gone are the days of a "cool looking piece of functional art" in this day and age as we have learned about sterile conditions.
The bottom line to me for a new tool is: 1.function-how well it lets me do the task at hand 2. balance & shape confort-how it will improve control and reduce wrist problems, hand fatigue & fit to my hand well 3. Able to be kept clean and sanitary with little effort.
