Well I decided I wanted to do some carving on my bizarre ... but I wasn't about to chance ruining my $600 baby. So I ordered a knock off china thing, Since its an exact copy, to try some designing on. I think it turned out pretty cool looking. What do you guys think. Trying to decide on a color and finish. Still not sure if ill ever actually swap my parts into it. But it was a fun experiment.

They run like crap! The adjustable knob doesnt adjust at all. And when he ran the machine it smelled like it was going to catch fire. I felt bad but then again. He tried to cut a corner.

I never used the knock off for any tattoo work. It really wasn't well built. To say there is a noticeable difference between a real stigma and the knockoff is an understatement.i may still put my bizarre parts into this frame to try it out. But who knows. I'm still really sqweemish to start grinding on my real frame. But I'm glad you guys liked the design I came up with. Went for a rib cage feel.

The one this guy had was not good i have seen the cap fall off and rip though skin. And the way it sounded was buzzing and the power kept fluctating..
I reall think you should do thins to the real thing that would be so awesome.
