    Intro

    A well designed high quality machine is always worth the money, in every one of its millions of stitches it will perform like a craftsman's tool should. And if you should happen to not like it, it will be easy to trade for another great machine here.

    Thank you all. And sorry no pics...that was an old school way of tattooing and over 15 years ago. Rotaries have come a long way. As for the stealth, i liked it, it ran ok for only a few months though, then id toss it, i would get them for just $50. I ran it at 6-7 for shading and 9 for lining or script.
