I am taking deposits on the new machine now. The retail is going to be $400 US and will be done around the end of June. I am doing 50 units and they are sweet as can be. The 3D model picture is one of the early ones and does not give it justice. The machine comes with 3 different strokes from short 2.5 mm 3.2mm and 4.2mm use standard tubes neddles. There is a sweet tube vise and German motor by the same manufacturer as the Rapier. The strokes are all in the same machine no extra parts to order and you can change them yourself. I will have several different springs for the give to cater to the artist's needs. The color is hard firearms anodized black for durability. It comes with a custom tube vice nut made of aircraft aluminum just like the machine. I'm looking for a laser ingraver right now and if time is'nt a factor I am going to ingrave the machines. Any questions call me or email me from the site www.tattooedpirate.com and I will answer any technical questions.
