So you would be supporting an artist..just taking a shot in the dark here but I dont think the makers of the swash drive does tattoo's.not sure... or the people who own tattoo supply company's I know for a fact that the owner of king pin tattoo supplies and diversified products in florida dont tattoo but we all support them... when you reading thru the post..the member that has the green neo-tat banner is the builder and he live in the us... I plan on purchasing each of them.
