    It sounds like you have found a rotary machine that work's for you and the way you tattoo. Why muck about trying others? I think the whips rock too. At the end of the day a tattoo Machine is nothing more than a tool. If that tool works then use it.

    What he said. I was big on no-give and to be honest not so much anymore, especially for lining. You need that little bit of force to puncture the skin without having to jam the needle in... I have a Mc 12 the one with the plastic flywheel connection to the Abar. There is much play in it, but it serves to slap the needle through the skin.. lines like no other. I like a bit of give, or maybe alot of dampening would be a better way to put it. I find i have a rotary set with alot of give, but if you run it fast it will not back off to much and puncture the skin much easier
