sweet then ill get some extras,thanks a bunch...smiley

i should have about 6-7 ready in the next 2 weeks. soft or Hard, i would just need to know what colors and type you want so i can build to suit.
i placed an order for more motors and it should be arriving in a week or 2. i have a few frames finished,anodized and ready to be assembled.
i should have another 15 ready before the 15th of Nov for the Richmond Va tattoo con.
if anyone is gonna be out there and wants to try it out just send me an email.

this is still a very small operation im running. the machines are cnc milled by a local shop here in chicago. i do the polishing/anodizing and wiring in my studio.
im glad everyone that has purchased a machine so far has been happy with it.

i can customize your hawk as much as you want i can only do 4mm stroke for the time being. since its the only length i set up with my machinist.
i can just switch the cam out for one of mine for $50 but if you want to commit and crack it open it takes a bit more work lol. i can powder coat the grip and housing a few different colors. like this--->

Yesssssssss I seen that on Facebook. I got a standard grip for it19mm would it be tough to make it bigger diameter?

insure i can make it happen :)

Well me and you will be doing some business here soon. Btw I got to bust my new machine out packed some color on one of my co workers. Works like a charm man. That white machine looks so bad ass btw

does the soft one only do soft, or can it do soft and hard?

@Tkocevar1
Thats awesome! glad you like the machine man.. That white machine is my baby right now, i think ive only used it a few times lol
@sleezy23 the soft machine only does soft. the system works similar to a spring on a coil machine but is backed up by a brushless motor. i like using it for portraits and softer stuff.

Here is a piece done by Cris Gherman Out of Dublin. Done with a Stylus H(red flower and bud)

Hi, I love my thunder most for lining and packing but after reading that, I get shocked. This machine seems to overpass the thunder. How do you compare the stylus with the thunder in fine lining, one pass power lining, etc? I it would be a fair comparison since both are cartridge dependent, quiet, and pencil like compared with other machines.


My thunder just fails more when using on fatty skin like belly or elbows so I have to change to a bavarian custom coil. I guess that since rotaries pinch in a different way of coils ( less instantaneous impact) they are not so able to enter the skin as easily, instead just push it a little before it enter.

Is this a rotary machine or it uses a system like a doorbell ( I experiment myself with a doorbell mechanism and I guess is the system used in the LOD machine )

I haven't used a coil in forever, so I can't really compare. The stylus works perfect for me.... From single needles to 13r shaders it makes solid one pass lines. The stylus is a direct drive basically. I'm super curious to try the soft machine as I only have the hard version.
