Here is a few machines I made this month.
199119921993

I am selling these for $250
- I had to add a bit more than before as I wasn't considering pay-pal charges and taxes:(
but they are dialed in, tested, and centered up both front and back as far as my calibrated eyeball can tell!

as you can see, the one on the far right is both RCA and clip-cord friendly. I plan on doing more in this fashion.

Thanks for looking!

Yes, tell us more-performance,weight etc. I like the appearance of the machines also, a sort of mixture of contemporary and latter year.

A direct drive seems to be a bit more aggressive than an armature or linear rotary. I use them for lining and whip shading type stuff. -although some of the folks I have sold to say they use theirs for smooth black and gray.
The action of a direct drive is similar to the way Tabori (Japanese hand poking) is done. -where the "wiggle" sort of opens up the skin a bit to put more ink in.
-though the needle doesn't look like it is doing much wiggling coming out of the tube.

These particular machines are pretty light. -I don't know how light, I suppose I will need to take them somewhere to weigh them.

Thanks, Fellas!

They weigh between 4.3 and 4.55 ounces (123-129 grams)
My lightest machine is my RCA springer, weighing 3.9 ounces, (113 grams)http://www.rotarytattoo.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=1455&d=1296847223

Hey Dan looks good. Later on when Im looking into getting another machine could you tweak or build a machine for my specific needs? Like a long stroke color packer or b/g machine thats light for example.
