Does anyone else use Swashdrive Machines?
Yup and love it. Got a gen6 so far and a gen7 on the way. Speaking of which should be here any damn day now!
So, what do you use the swash for that you don't use the other machines for? Does it have a 'specialty' in your book?
Everything as the Gen 7 has a softer hit than the original Gen 6 but I use a Neo 2.5 for most of my lining except feet and neck I use the Gen 7 so i dont get too much penetration...
I use swashdrives for EVERYTHING, lining, whip-shadng, colour packing and b&g.
U se my gen 6 for line work mostly..but i will do color with them
its awesome for most applications. Just gotta find your rythym & what not
its really awesome, i enjoy doing color tattoos and black and gray
i found 9 mags to 13 mags work good with the swash-drive gen 7
i use a gen 1 and a prototype swash for all my large scale japanese work. use my gen 6 for tribal stuff.
i wont line or do black and grey with em, and tend to only use them for larger scale work where the
weight is a real benefit.

I have a gen 5 use for mainly for color or solid fields of tribal. I can do Lining with it or BnG.The early gens had slower motors that take more volts, so they do work good for japenese or color bomb.
