Has anybody used the new stigma's yet?

I think crabink most people really don't care about tuning a machine any more-they would rather have a quiet session,faster heals,lighter and less vibrating machines that lowers wrist pain etc. People want to focus on the art more then being a mechanic and as such there has being amazing art leaps done with rotaries as people focus on tecniques. .
I love coils to and can build and tune them also. And love them for line work and old school whips but you cant beat a linear slide or dd for colorpacking or black or grey.
So I see them as tools and nothing more.But it does look like you are rethinking how you tune your coils to more of a j .carlton type set up and that all came about after using rotaries.

To this day the most saturated tattoos I have ever seen have been done with coils, I do not see that changing rotary's work well and have advantages but coils have some definite unmatched advantages. Tuning is so easy If you understand your machines well. I am not sure how they ever become such a big hassle. I spend about five mins a day making sure my machines are running where they should be and my machines never go out of tune unless a spring breaks.
