INKJECTA PNEUMATIX

Just got this one in. Tried it on one tattoo so far. Can't wait to test it further. The ergonomics make it feel much like an N2. It's supposed to have the torque of an electric rotary machine. Only time will tell cause it has to go through a breakin period.

Looks nice, however the chuck key reminds me of something I would use to tighten the collar on the seat post of my bike.

Please do post some more info when you break it in.

I agree about the vice. I saw protoype models that had a small wingnut. So far it seems to not get in the way.

Well for the record neither did the one on my bike saddle.

This is what my top drawer is looking like right now. I have second black Dragonfly at home along with 3 N2's I keep at home. (In case my shop burns down. LOL) With the arrival of the Inkjecta I'll probably be using 100% Pneumatics.

Interesting, so you rate your pneumatics better than the Dragonfly?

Yes in some ways & no in others. I mostly like the ergonomics of pneumatic machines. My new Inkjecta is actually 6 grams heavier than the Dragonfly. But feels way lighter & easier to control because of the centralized mass. I can swing the machine around freely. When it comes to building layers for smooth shading I would also prefer pneumatics.
However I love the adjustability of the Dragonfly. You can change the torque quickly. The pneumatics lack in this department.The N2 is not capable of alot of punch. I hear the Hybrid can produce more torque but based on internet reviews I decided on the Inkjecta Torque alloy.
