I built this out last weekend and have used it all week with very good results. It's extremely quiet and low vibration. Weighs 4oz and has the usual 4mm stroke, though I do have a prototype bearing converter to make any regular cam bearing completely adjustable.

Thanks man, it was a blast to build and use. I've been a ninja tattooer for the last five days.

Thanks guys, I have a quick video of it running on my instagram @illustratedgentleman. My phone doesn't do it justice in the low noise category though. You can here the shop's TV, thirty feet in the background, if that tells you anything.

Yeah, it provides an amazing amount of give. I plan to experiment with different springs to see what differences each has on give quality.

I fitted this one with the new adjustable adapter. So far it'll go from about 1.5mm to about 5mm+.
