I machine every piece except screws, bearing, and RCA jack in house. You charge 100.00 to 125.00 an hour for tattooing, put yourself in my shoes. What would you charge for a 5 hour tattoo? That's how long it takes to machine the frame alone.
Don't feed the cheapsters Cary. That's an awesome price on a great, time proven design. Thanks for all you do man.
I agree, cary makes a solid effective product that delivers every time at a good price point..when there are others out making machines that have allot more cons than pro's and asking 500.00 and up! i for one would love to try one just as soon as i can gather some extra milk money:eek:...
Yeah man, by the end of this week ill be putting my order through. I have to put in that work ;]
Doh, this was supposed to be a response to the "too expencive" guy. It would take 3 hours for this machine to pay for itself.... this dude made the comment to buy machines from china instead... on another thread.
Yeh im happy buying a machine that pays for itself in one days work....I dont buy chinese shit and never will...
