Centri tattoo machine

[Inkslingers]

I was on the fence about using the Centri for lining...took some playing around with rubber band tension to get it down, but this fucker rocks an outline! Seemed that putting the added tension of an extra band makes all the difference (for me).

HMMM.... I had a rough time outlining but I did have pretty weak tension. So far the shading and coloring has taken over as my primary machine. (which sucks since I spent so much on all my gen 7s haha) Im gonna give it another go for lining. What are guys running yours at voltage wises?

I run them between 6 and 7 volts, depending on what I'm doing. (Keep im mind that my hand movements are very fast, which includes the way I line) As far as lining goes, I didn't dig it till I added the extra tension...now it's a beast. I'll put 2 (13's) over the needle and back around to the RCA, but the difference came when I added another band using the side slots...the extra tension brought everything together for me. Try it before you write the machine off as a liner!
