    A good point there elbo. Being a grease it wouldn't wash off as easily as ink. Not an issue if disposable tubes are being used though.

    Quick update on my opinions of my Rotaryworks machine; I've noticed that if the grommet is flat to the brass when a needle is in place the grommet can start to wear away and cause the machine to slow a little. A small air gap underneath the grommet fixes this. On a very positive note i set the machine to 2.8 volts and tried lining. At first i couldn't get a clean line, then i started to push the needle a little and slow down a bit and wow does this machine line really smoothly! I used both 5rls and 7rls all day and it was super consistent. I Tried some tricky pieces too like 2 polynesian arm bands (yawn) and a japanese dragon half sleeve with loads of scales, it performed like a dream. One of the best lining machines i've used in 6 years of tattooing and that includes all the top name coils! I'm going to be buying another one of these machines very shortly!
