Recommend a high torque non cart rotary.

PM'd you.
Also how are Halo's for dots? Do they have the torque at low volts?

anyway, most of the DOT WORK artists around the world use just a simple DIRECT DRIVE, nevermind who build, so don realy need any ULTRATECHNOLOGY MACHINE for done DOT WORK man, adapt yourself on a simple DIRECT DRIVE, thats all

I found Halo have too much vibration for dotwork

Yep

Yea I am kind of lost at the suggested complexity of doing an up and down motion to create dots. I had never realized it was hard to do.

If you slow the machine down enough and move your hand quick it creates an oblong dot. Done it on a dan kubin direct drive, a rr, and a luca mamone. I prefer linear action with rca.

Well dots are up and down aren't they? Slow and steady. Xed did a British pound sign on my shin in 2004 , not very big and it was three hours of up and down up and down. Are you guys referring to actually moving the machine like sharing to get the dots instead of up and down motion?

Yup. For individual dots, I like using a coil machine for some reason.
But I like to slow the machine down and "shade" with it with the rotary.
