Some of the Negative feedback on that seller...

"AVOID; Seller charged me 44.99 and sent 39.99 kit, ink caused infection.-0*z"

People are getting infections from that stuff. :/

"Very bad quality, avoid at all costs. Power unit blew up when tattooing, chinese"

... That stuff is a risk for your health.

ok so I am just getting in to Tattooing first started with one of the abay cheap tattoo kits but slowly buying better equipment .

main reason for posting this here is in lots of topics notice some guys may have access to the tools -metals and machines to make the frames the main part of the machines . looking at building my own custom machine/guns all the other parts are ok priced and easy to get hold of but after looking around the frames can be costly for good grade iron-alloy-brass type frames you can buy some for £1 and around £20 for ok frames but the prices can be stupid in some cases for a realy simple peice of metal .

if some one could make good looking say brass frames I wouldbe intrested in buying some and if you can make realy good ones you could make your self a bit of cash selling them on ebay ect ..

well heres a pic of a stripped down machine as you see the main frame is realy simple . its all to do with conductivty of the frame and parts also the coils play a big part but they are ok priced for good grade one online

as you see here I am thinking of buying this frame called brass pitbull frame £18 now my qestion is could anyone make these or better cheaper ?

just look at some of the frames here look nice but wtf $120 lol

http://www.triangletattoo.com/tattoo_machine_frames.htm

now some one will search and see you can buy cheap frames/machines/guns mainly chinese made from cheap scrap metals and I already know they perform ok but not great .

so can or could you make one or more ?

Would cost more than £18 to make a one off design. £18 seems really cheap!

not sure I should be let lose on members of the public as yet lol but still not the worst tattoos for my first go .

my arm coverd up something I did as a teen this was my first

my second tattoo on the wifes upper leg still needs shadeing and color

side note the cheap tattoo kit I bought from china I notice the seller was buying back feedback of others and althou I was happt with the kit for the price I decided to give him bad feed back and try my luck... it paid of and streight away he said pls can you revise feedback I will give you full refund and you can keep kit and I will send you another free kit as a gift . and to my shock he refunded my money and says he is also going to send me another kit for free just to keep me happy.

so got all the basic starter stuff for free heres the seller and his kits just in case anyone wants to try their luck.

the reason thos ones are so expensive is that there made from billet.. a solid block of brass to cover the size of the frame isnt cheap! plus machineing costs, thats quite a gd price if u ask me lol **** we make stuff from brass and it cost alot. we even keep the brass solid and swarf waste material locked away indoors coz its so valubal even as swarf! pikeys gold m8! lol

the reason thos other ones are cheap aswell is the **** monkey metal. flat cast/ stamped steel thats been bent into postion alot less material is used/wasted alot cheaper to produce but a big reduction in quality. like the old sayin goes.. u get what u pay for

Boxing · Guru

I don't trust stuff from China, same as most don't trust bikes from China.

One of the feedback's:

"Everything is fine except for their **** inks. THESE INKS WILL INFECT YOUR SKIN"

I'd rather pay for professionals to do it than get an infection, fook that lark.

Liam12 · DTR Legend

I'd never go cheap when it comes to a tattoo, mine was £70 it's nothing big but for what it is I love it! Whereas my mate got his tattoo done for £40 took the guy 10 minutes if that and it looks sh!t!

MDK · DTR Legend

yeah I was aware of the feedbacks and in lots of those cases they was all just to get a refund as I did but to be honest I have not used the inks just for the fact they have no dates on them the only things I have used is the power supply and guns mainly for practice on grape fruits -pig skin and fake skins the needles are ok along with gromits and other odds and ends I in no way bought this thinking of useing any of it on the public it was just to practice with and as you see from the name of the thread I aim and am building my own custom machine . I have already got good grade and dated inks aolng with needles and tips .

(I'd rather pay for professionals to do it than get an infection, fook that lark) and you think you can not get a infection scares or reactions from a professional ?

like saying fck rebuilding your engine let a pro do it and pay him for doing so when in fact with basic tools and a little lerning you can do maybe a better job at home . thats how I feel about most things try it for your self in stead of lineing some one elses pockets .

Energized · DTR Legend

Calum122 · Guru

Tattoos are GASH!

Tramp stamp IMO.

Nothing sexier than bare skin.

ToySoldier · DTR Legend

nar would fit fine tbh hahaha

and cal only when you have it on your lower back lol

Energized · DTR Legend

Cal you small minded pube.

Are you a simpleton from the woods who lives in a cave?!

Liam12 · DTR Legend

Callum go sit in a corner and have words with yourself!

Calum122 · Guru

True mate.

The sorts of people who get tattoos

Yeah Boi! That chavey looks SUUUUWWWWEEEETTTT!!

No mate. They look SSSHHHHÍÍÍÍÍÍTTTTT!!!

I hate tattoos with a passion.

Firstly they look ****. Looks like you haven't washed.

Secondly they're mega addictive. And like an addiction people don't stop at one. And eventually you look like that donut^^^^^

Thirdly they're there for life. Which sorry but you've got to be really passionate about something to commit to it for life. I struggle to commit to anything more than a few hours. So a lifetime.

Calum122 · Guru

No mate. She looks KAT!.

Ruined herself. Natrual beauty. Why da fúk would I want her to have vines on her arms. Seriously looks gash.

Liam12 · DTR Legend

Yeah that guy looks like an ass!! But tattoos are great up to a point!! I'll be happy with another 2 or 3! Haha
Well mines my passion of speed! And I don't think I'll ever not love the rush you get from going fast and pushing yourself closer and closer to the edge

Calum122 · Guru

You can't say that though. You came off your Dirt bike the other month as was concussed. You were lucky. But what if one day, god forbid, you have a serious accident due to going to fast. You might then change your morals about speed. Espeically if you injured, or worse, killed someone due to dangerous speeds. And now you're left with all these tattoos about how awesome speed is.

Just seems a bit silly really.

I like the temporary tattoos. What are they henna?

I know my example is crap. But it's like people who get tattoos with their current girlfriends name.

and like I said Liam. It's an addiction. It's hard to stop at just one.

Energized · DTR Legend

That's just stereotyping Cal.

Tattoos are an art form, it's about knowing what you want. Getting something that you like for the art work, or that's meaningful to you.

i know plenty of people with tattoos that look beautiful.

Photo: So its been a long road to finish this one fully but we finally did it !

Calum122 · Guru

Seriously revolting mate.

Honestly. Even though they may be pretty. You are detracted away from their prettyness due to their tattoos.

I've got a perfect example. If only I had facebook.

One of my brothers Ex's.

I'll see if I can get some photos.

Energized · DTR Legend

This is one of my mate's girlfriend's tattoos, not finished yet but is absolutely stunning and really suites her!

ToySoldier · DTR Legend

some tatto's are lovely some are nasty just like bikes you see some that are good and some that are well horrid haha

I can see Reece you're going pal but even after coming of the bike was was still on the floor apparently begging to get back on the bike, I do understand the risks involving speed but that's the thrill of life I love. legendary quote which says "don't be scared of dying be scared of not living" but on the other hand I fully agree with you on current girlfriend names that's just a bit silly!!

Yeah they are addictive but if they're meaning and not to over the top then let them be. Some really are a true work of art! My next one is going to be a pin up of like the nose art the aircraft had during WW2
