Yeah those are a good option too, I bought some of those to counter how light the treasure is. I don't use them often but they feel like chrome plated cast iron.

Yes ,we joked about how if you didn't like them ,take a 12" section of rubber hose stuff the grip into one end ,and you have a lethal blackjack.Quote:

So, you too like whittling in metal?

well ray I like the weight of the neo tat and it does feel solid. haven't used the new one yet so when I get one I will let you know!!
I think weight is personal preference, but I have a machine that is too light for me if I use my disposables it does feel like I have to push . I'm still getting used to the lightness of the rotary, compared to coils. The rotary machines are easier on my wrist , but when I'm lining I prefer a heavier machine, vs. The lighter the better if I am coloring or shading. The shape of the machine means more to me. This last machine that I'm getting rid of the only reason I'm parting with a this because of the shape. It sits ackward when I'm trying to turn my tube to get to certain areas of the tattoo. I prefer the tighter shaped machines ie. Neotat, rapier 2 , Swiss to the elongated ones that barely can even be bagged.
Hey that would look slick for sure! carved up brass would be sure to attract coil lovers.:cool:Quote:

I think the original neotatt with disposable tubes feels the best.
