    My Blitz Machine



    It's my first 'real' rotary. It's really well-made. Optimum volts for this machine are between 6-7.5. I've used it for color, shading and some linework. This is the aluminum model, with an RCA attachment. I really like it, and I'm considering the brass model.

    Hey, Clinton -
    I had to wait a few months to get my machine, but I think it's worth it. I ordered mine directly from Blitz. John was supercool and really helpful. It seems much better suited for either coloring, or doing black and grey undershading instead of soft black and grey, as it hits a little hard.
    I had no idea that tatsoul was distributing them now. Do they sell both styles (brass and aluminum)?

    Well, the brass are REALLY nice as well. I don't own one of them (yet) but plan to soon! Blitz had to take the machines off of their site because they were so popular, but I had emailed John asking if I could pay him in advance and he agreed to make me whatever I wanted. If you were interested in the brass one (it's got a little more weight to it, but still is not as heavy as a coil machine) try emailing him if you want to go that route.

    Nah... I just keep bugging people until they finally give in! Also being at the right place at the right time with enough money in my papyal account helps too!

    Keep an eye open in your 'notifications'. I'm going to send you a private message there - I don't want spam-bots to pick up anyone's email or info from me posting it out in the open. I think John is more of a phone guy. He's usually really busy, so you'll probably have to leave a message (unless you catch him at a good time). He will call back in a matter of days at the longest though. He's a really nice guy.
