    I'd be tempted to go to a decent hardware shop and get some o-rings large enough to fit.
    Play nice now people or your naughty posts will go in the Shit Box!

    Post a photo of the way you are putting the rubberbands on? I'm curious I have 3 nicks machines and never even saw a rubberband look worn in any way while tattooing. I'm curious

    You could go with needlerunners or get Sage to make you a needlebar tensioner. I think needlerunners work very well with all of my rotarys.
