    Shit man I never even thought of that! However, according to the coil heads we are already using machines that sound like bee farts, so why not go the whole hog

    Roman, you need to make a bumble bee machine with a wind up vice screw

    Never any offense made, the wind up toy thing and bee fart thing is an ongoing joke between Limey and I about other tattoo forums poking fun at us and eachother.

    After all...

    Hey Roman - I liked the coins that much I made my own upgrade on another machine

    But the new ones would look at home on your machines - top end machining.

    1. its funny that baldrick credits roman for the coin thumbscrew. 2. although i like the winged/hm logo thumbscrew, I love the fact that i get the same feeling as all of my ciferri thumbscrews, and i feel like the euro is branding enough because my HM machines are the only ones that have a eurocoin thumscrew. it is classic. one thing i dont like about rotary "culture" is that some feel the need to change everything, and update things about the machine that are functionally perfect. workhorse uses and makes different thumbscrews, and they are cool, like the full circle wingnut, and they have a key looking one, and those are on coils...i would opt for the euro coin, but having more options is always a great idea in any case. roman will make a top product no matter what.

    Grey - I don't credit Roman with the coin thumbscrew - I just have a few of Romans machines and I like the coins - same as on some of my coils, a real old school feeling, and I prefer them to wingnuts - mainly because I find them easier to clean. - purely my opinion.

    And yes I do modify some of my machines, either to suit me better or sometimes just to make them more unique - I'm an individual and I hate being the same as everyone else - that's why I'm covered in tattoos

    Anyway this is Romans thread to see who likes his new wingnuts so as I've put my opinion in I'm done here.

    I think the new thumbscrews look swell, hopefully they'll fit on other machines aswell.
