    What power settings are you using, just to let others know how easy the Rapiers are to use.

    Did both those tattoo running at alittle over 4.5 volts the entire time, and a correction on the needle for the bride tattoo was a 17 bugpin not a 15. These machines are great, anyone wondering about them can rest assure thats its money well spent.

    I think the Bride grabs me more because of the color choices - the teal vibrates really nice off of the warm green in her eyes. I think if the yellow in Dorothy's hair had some purple or dark blue to bounce off of, that would grab me equally.

    Cary makes some awesome machines. I have his Blunderbuss, and want to get a Rapier 2 eventually. I think they are some of the easiest machines to line with. Feels SO similar to a coil. Anyone wanting to switch over completely to rotaries may want to add one to their arsenal.
