    Roman - Evolution Rotary

    http://www.hmtattoomachines.com/epag..._silver_alumin

    Can you guys/girls tell me anything about this builder?
    (Roman - Evolution Rotary)


    HM tools & DYE is coming to convention called Helsinki-ink here in Finland next month.
    And i´m hoping that they bring some rotarys for sell.

    The machine has A-bar attached with mainspring to spring sadle...
    A little odd for a newbie like me.

    Mike H a forum member has a couple of these and can probably give you more information although I don't know how often he visits the forum so if he doesn't reply here you might need to send him a private message.

    There is a thread about them here. However, the spring design is used by other builders, (Shagbuilt Canister Rotaries) are one example, so its not that odd.

    Hope that helps.
    Play nice now people or your naughty posts will go in the Shit Box!

    I have the Neotat and Rotary works and like Jay says they are both great machines... I also really like my Tieg.

    yes i have a roman rotary and i really like it.i think for newer rotary users its very easy to get used to,very similar to a coil machine in the way it feels but without all the negatives!i had an alloy and a brass one,prefered the weight of the brass one so traded the alloy.easy to get nice smooth shading and will put colour in solid ,i've used mine every day since august and haven't had a single problem with it,would recommend it!

    The really nice thing about machines like these, is that NO MATTER WHAT, your needles will ALWAYS be up in the tube when your motor stops. Not all rotaries will do this. Some, like neotat and the Swiss machine (they are not the only ones) have springs inside them to do this. I think it's a nice feature to have as it makes tattooing a little safer if you are switching between machines. You will never accidentally scrape your hand on a machine whos needles were sticking out.
