Nice!

yea i think the tension device will work well on this type of machine. nice lookin-I had a swiss and it was well made.

Ive been wanting one for a while, had a chance to use one from another artist and it was awesome.

Yeah my wife has an original and I can't say enough good things about it. I for it for her for valentines last year, and wanted to black line it for here. So I wrote the builders about it and gave them the machine number. They thanked me for buying an original machine even if it was used and told me they would send all of the parts I would need to black the machine out for free. I even had the parts a day before I had the machine. These guys truly know customer service and they make a hell of a machine. I advice everyone to try one if you ever get the chance.

I really want one.

Yep the original Swiss is a first class Machine,but, I preferred the Peter Tiegs... http://www.killerinktattoo.co.uk/products/tattoo-gun-machines/rotary/peter-tiegs-made-in-germany-rotary-tattoo-machine-liner-shader-sky-blue/ I wonder if Swiss Rotary will move ahead in front with this build..:)

Man I would love to try The Tiegs machine. I have never heard a bad word about it. Hard to say who will be the best in this round. However does Peter really make machines still? It seams to me that they aren't really available anymore.

Awesome! I wonder if people will like the tensioner tho

[mextattoos]

clean and nice looking, but sure it will overprice !:p

When they were testing out the needle bar tensioner they came by our shop and gave us some. We just swapped them out for the the original tube vise underneath. Works great.
I don't think there are any changes to the actual machine though. It's the same machine with a new tube vise/ needle tensioner.
They do have a new machine about to come out though. It's cool. I was helping test a few prototypes over the past 2 years.

Interesting. I made my own a while back before this came out. However, I also added 3.5mm swing dampening bearing.
Cost $40 for the vise and bearing and $70 for the stealth. I use this machine everyday.

The vice looks like is from a firefly (Chinese copy of dragonfly).

[OwlsDen]

There is a Chinese stealth II machine that has all that stuff on it. You can buy one for about 35$. The body is different, same size but the front is cut down.

Here it is without the needle tensioner. I didn't look very hard. But they come with the DF style needle tensioner too.

I'd rather have the Swiss any day. The support you get is second to none. Not to mention that the quality is 100 times better too.
