I actually got it in today. Didn't get to tattoo with it yet though. aesthetically the machine is flawless. I got the Ruby colored one with the matching click grip. I loaded it with a cart and ran it and it definitely runs carts nice and quite and the give seems like it's going to work really well. Not sure how big of a fan of the grommet-less armature gizmo I'll be but I'm sure I'll get used to it. The needle bar tension wheel is flippin' awesome though!! Hopefully going to get to tattoo with it on Sunday. Also, this thing is light and vibration while running in zilch.
