    Centri Machines

    I've read though some of the posts and questions about this machine, although I'm in no position to answer a lot of them, over the weekend I was able to check the machine out first hand. A friend and artist was doing a tattoo with one and let me get behind it for a few minutes to see what it'll do. My only regret was that I didn't get to do more then I did with it! "Someone" mentioned size being an issue? I thought that also, from looking a picture of it..once you have it in your hand though, it's a whole different story...you literally think you are drawing with a large sharpie. From what I understand the next generation may be somewhat smaller? Again, I may not be in the best position to comment on this because I don't know for a FACT that a downsize is in the works. As far as what I actually experienced though, this machines could very well be the future. I've always been a purist when it comes to machines and have stuck with coils, BECAUSE there hasn't been the ability to adjust the needles force. It hasn't been a matter of which is better, but just the plain fact that the technology wasn't there yet. Machines like the Dragonfly (just to name one), have changed this somewhat. But the Centri changes EVERYTHING...the technology is finally there! I personally don't like the way it looks, I don't like the size, I don't like that it doesn't come in 85 different colors... bla, bla, bla...all that makes no difference, one the first things I did this morning was message the Builder asking if I could get a pre-order, name on a waiting list, who's d*ck do I need to suck...whatever it takes to get my hands on a couple of these! Needless to say, I'm very impressed with their product...

    Wow, that's some testimonial. How long is the wait for one of these?

    I couldn't personally tell you the wait time. I was told today that they took a month set back waiting for parts. I'd go to Centritattoo Machines on facebook on look for postings there.

    Virtually nothing on the Facebook, no info on the machine, there isn't even a picture of one. I'll contact him on here.
