    yeah man the "stealth" lines just as good as my crankers with 4mm bearing or even 3.5 ! Its crazy, throw a cranker motor or just a better motor overall in it and its even a little better imho. Smoothest machine and very consistant with a few easy tweaks. Starting to use it allot now Throw a silicone grom on and its a beaut to use

    Between Kubins and Halos I can't remember the last time I didn't use either but...

    Kubin MC Liner 4.0 closest to a coil liner ever - consistent and reliable it will do what I need always between 4.2-5 v - I have two
    Kubin MC2 colour 3.5 smooth colour runs real slow and packs just like I like or peppers - one word answer - consistent, blends like a dream
    Kubin DD packer 3.5 will do blackest blacks and solid color
    Halo 3.5 Smooth Colour and B and G smooth consistent and always does what its told, blends as good as any of my coils every time
    Fly v2 - by black and grey go to

    Initially, the plastic does feel a little chintzy. But it's super light and sturdier than it looks. I've been toying around with the triangles and trying to see what it can do. Overall, it's a really good machine.

    From what I understand the revision is mainly going to be a stronger motor. So it is more compatible with cartridges. There could be more changes, though.
    The vice is an easy fix. Mickwrath posted a 10cent solution on here a while ago that works great. And, really, the plastic isn't a big deal at all. It's a great machine. Well worth checking out.

    1. Stigma Hyper V3, best color shader/packer I've ever picked up, perfectly balanced, consistent, not a huge learning curve but a lot to experiment with
    2. Vivace got a 2.5mm Vivace now and it makes me hate doing black and grey less!
    3. Ego, Killer little machine feels like it's made by fisher price but is incredible versatile. I use mine for small liners. Still need to figure out my triangle combos for other uses but it's so cool!
    4. Swashdrive Gen 8. Finally a rotary I can blast a clean solid line with that doesn't come out thinner than i wanted. such a solid consistent liner.
    5. OG Neotat. same as Vivace just not as pretty lookin.

    That said I am really digging this RW Brass Spring Rotary a lot so with some more time I'm sure it'll climb the list

    I'm also dying to try a Halo, a Beast, a Prodigy, a Whip, a Bishop, Etc...

    My top five is pretty redundant.
    1. spektra halo 4.0mm (lining)
    2. Spektra halo 3.6mm (literally everything)
    3. Bishop 4.2 (use it for anything but always picked third due to halos)
    4. Stigma beast 4.0 (may actually be third loved this machine but recently traded it for another halo. Love the no grommet no rubber idea.
    5. Stealth rotary I hate to say but I love packing color with these cheap little things :/ its what started my conversion to rotary machines.
