New silver centri owner

There isn't any rubber on the inner metal parts. There is the plate and the little wedge shaped metal screwed to the spring

In our video it shows the plates in position. If you have opened it up you have to make sure the armature bar is verticle when placing the top back on. It should never hit the frame, Is your foam in it? Cause that would keep it from hitting the frame which makes me think if it is in there then the motor was not in its correct position when the top was put back on.

finally seem to be getting hang of this machine, guess was just used to running my coils and giveless rotaries on short stroke and nippy speeds, since getting daring and using more needle it seems to tattoo better

I set it up with a lot of overhang, took a second to figure out that it retracts to mid stroke more or less. Also it's got a lot of give, but when you and it are in synch it works really really well.

I've got mine shipping on Monday. I can't wait!!!
