Everyone liked the performance and look of the machine when a tensioner wasn't present.

Even though the machine can be autoclaved and sterilized a lot of people will not do that and that tensioner knob will be touch every time the machine is broken down after each tattoo. We may release a removable tensioner if the demand increases but so far everyone loves the little rubber bands.

I dig your tensioner Sage and would love to try it.
Understandable, weird how some machines are better with or without. I've been real happy with it on mine, but I'll try the bands too and see if I can tell any difference. As far as sterilizing I wipe mine down with the machine pretty thoroughly with madicide and oil them monthly to keep em from rusting. pm me your address and I'll send you one to try out
