is it an Eddie Lollis build? It's got that very familiar Dragonfly front end like soooooooooooooo many other machines.
I think that front end will become a new standard-it just simply works great! and holds both style of tubes with ease.
Looks like a Stigma-Dragonfly-Special Technique breed
There's been some interesting posts on facebook about it!
i like it, i dont care if it looks like others. all rotary look like others that have been built and even tattoos look like other artists styles, everyone steal one way or another, yet i do like this one and i would pick it up in a sec
It is a nice looking machine, and looks to have quite a few elements in common with several machines that I have seen and used. Over all I think it is nice.
It is a fusion of elements from other machines IMO mainly Special Technique, which I don't think Bill is too pleased about. It is however a good looking build-but how does it Tattoo?
It's table-flippin' time!
looks nice , wouldn't take long for the chinese to copy it .
Really? Antagonizing people isn't needed..
it is for some

clean simple and compact, whats not to like about a machine like this? and...BTW, IMO, varietions on themes, the combining of proven design elements of multiple machines engineered into a new crossbreed is NOT the same as a knockoff. yes we all reuse design elements like the sky is blue but xeroxing anything for pure greed with a mold is definately not the same thing. this machine looks like it took some time and skill to figure out with the each part integrated with purpose of design by a skilled tattooist, and that's a very good thing:D
Yes that is eddie machine..he is across the bridge from me...I invited him to the forum..hopefully he comes. As far as a knock off i say fuck it!!! If you have a better idea i say build a machine and bring it to the table..there are only so many ways to make ann arm bar move up and down. As far as the needle tentioner goes I am not a big fan but hey it cuts out rubber bands but its also more xtra shit on a machine.
... Just when I thought I was done buying new machines...
I think we can safely say needle tensioners (while they may have been innovated by the dragonfly, are pretty much universal at this point) I am a huge fan of the Spec. Tec. drivetrain (and their machines in general) and would love to see how this machine runs.
This has already got ugly on facebook or at least looks like it might. anyway have your oppinions just please do not make any of this personal or start a mud slinging contest with each other. If you want to join in the fun on facebook it should not be hard to find if you are that hungry for a fight.
It's good to see quality engineering and rather sexy at that any way i like motors that run from the back you get a nice feel well done sir would like to know if the spring in the middle is for give ? Ive just started using Kev shercliff rotary most impressive
let us all beware the slippery slope. namaste.
Let's see a photo of Kevs' machine, if you don't mind. I've already heard good things about it.Quote:
