I have seen these copyed on ebay already to, also they look like a cheap knockoff with a bottom plate, but this one looks to be made form a solid block with a high end motor any body try one yet?

I saw these for sale at the Toronto Tattoo Convention (NIX2010) last year at the Pricks of the Trade booth. They have indeed been knocked off by Chinese sellers on ebay. The knock offs bare a striking resemblance to this machine as well as early designs of Rotary Tattoo Machine by Ben Wight.

They where pretty expensive at the convention as well since they where converting a lot of the stock from the euro to the Canadian Dollar.

I've owned some Paolini coil machines in the past. I have no interest in owning any more Paolini machines, either coil or rotary due to my disappointment with them.

Cool!

I'm not sure where Paolini machines are ACTUALLY being made. Perhaps they've stepped up their manufacturing quality recently (?), but the ones I have from 5 years ago were balls. The guy I apprenticed under would get discounts from the local supplier that carried them, so I ended up with a few. Nothing lined up. The a-bars were over too far one direction, the coils didn't line up underneath it... they were just BAD. Even the coils looked like junky plastic bobbin Chinese crap. I guess that's what happens when you have underage kids drilling out your frames?

They all just sit and collect dust in a shoebox now.
