There's this dude Old Man Terry. He's an ex-gunsmith machine builder and his shit is legit.

He an excellent oldschool craftsman with crazy cool machines. Real basic, bluesteel finish, no unnecessary flair and run at super low volts. Most of his run smooth at 4v unloaded. $250 a machine but I seriously think they are worth more. Guess he runs around Bakersfield and Las Vegas on his hustle.

Chris Dewitt from Amoeba Designs build rad one off coil machines. I have three of his coils, and two of his rotaries soon to have #4 of his new direct drives. On top of that my apprentice has two coils from him and the other two guys at my shop have 3 coils between them. His customer service is beyond amazing and he knows he stuff. He does carved and oil dipped or powder coated. And will build to you specs.

My new boss has been machine building for years. I help him out now and his process genuine hand made from the ground up. If anyone's interested let me know and I can arrange something. He doesn't promote but I think he should, his machines are def legit and garunteed for life.

Forgotten Ironz the shortys are $250 and the 13s are $300.

No, but it's funny you say that. The story I was told is he had worked with Brad, the EST builder, idk how long ago when he started building since Brad had good builder set up. Its my understanding they're machines are quite similar as being a shared vision on their take of a tattoo machine but the story is better from him. Not second hand from me.

I met just about everyone in the tattoo circles, including Brad, and actually owned 3 of his machines. 1 EST I still use and 2 old models I didn't really like that I no longer have. Though I have to admit while I loved my EST one, it ran way cleaner once Dfie respringed it and etc.

Dfie does rebuilds too, in case anyone is interested.
