Hi guys,
The owner of my shop got one adjustable cheyenne grip, and a non adjustable one for either coil machine or his rotaries.
I wasn't there when he tried it but he said that unless he didn't follow the instructions right , once he set up the bar into the tube with the cart, and adjusted the stroke and once he started tattooing
with his coil machine, he had to turn the voltage up by 2 volts to make the cart move and after a while the needles popped out of the cart and went flying literally out of the cart which stayed firmly attached to the tube.
He said he wasted 4 carts where they all did the same thing.
He also said that he could adjust the throw with a non adjustable grip that cost aud$165 less than the adjustable one and since the instructions are pretty basics i'm not too sure.
The guy can tattoo, he's been doing it for 30+ years and builds his own machine like build his own coils welds his own frame etc...... the finest machines I've ever ran, I tried them a few times and man they are the bomb, so he's seen it all but that one has gotten him puzzled.
Now i wasn't there and won't be back at the shop until the 29th Oct so again I won't see if he doing it wrong.
Is there a video available on how to set up the tube and cart somewhere?
