It would be cool if ya made run Stainless steel framed version for us heavy coil users that love the long stroke! If its even possible to?

[fkirons]

I will look into making a version in stainless. But then it will suck to use disposable Sounds interesting the idea. Def digesting it as we speak

Stainless? Bah! Go all the way bro- Titanium!!! Good compromise in weight between the two, and oh so beautiful, strong and durable

It's worth Gaston considering it Sage, I think the finished result would be gorgeous.

Limited edition
If you could do them for no more than $150 more, I think they'd sell. Titanium is expensive to machine true, but the cad and programming is already done, the right manufacturer could produce the frames fairly affordably...

If buy another heavier spektra! I've been looking for an excuse to buy another body.

Stainless for use guys that use steel tubes and like weight ,which would help with long stroke machines-which a lot of coil users use.Plus it would meet all health standards of sterilization in all lands.I feel that is the downfall of all rotary makers they feel that they have to make everything light as a feather. I feel if they did both a lighter and heavier model they will get more sells and please more artists. The brass storm is selling great to coil users as it has that weight of a coil machine. I find when a machine is to light i have to actually do more work which causes more cramps and more vibrations.I think you are going to see alot of carpel in a just a few years from the superlight machine users as the cause of this is not weight. It is repetitive motions and vibrations.Just look at any very lite rotary users posted videos and you will see that they have to constantly push the needle in as compared to a coil. A coil can also cause carpel but takes many years to do so because the machines do the work and they have some weight/density to absorb vibrations. Can you imagine a Halo in SS!? from reviews it gets ink in the skin great with its weighted slide and if you had a heavier front frame with the aluminum back motor mount it would be truly the crossover machine that would define everything as you would be able to do any size stroke and let the machine due the work due not having to constantly push the needle in or felling vibrations.
Look at the testing ray did with the original neo tat it had a lot of meat to its frame so it caused minimal vibrations.That is why that machine sells well and is still a favorite of coil/rotary users all over the world.

Spektra arrived today (3.6mm)!...got to use it for 2 small tattoos. This thing is awesome, I was comfortable with it right out of the gate. Can't wait to do larger pieces with it so I can really appreciate how smooth this machine is.... bang on Gaston.
