How do Prisoners Make Their Tattoo Machines?

Modern tattoo industry is very prosperous. Tattoo artists have high skilled crafts and tattoo appliances that are duly exquisite no matter cheapor expensive. However, when we recall the retrospection of the tattoo industry beginning, it would definitely lead to prisoners in the old times to mark their gangs or power.

  Actually, making a set of cheap tattoo machines with common things in our daily life is much easier than you can imagine. Without the help of a professional tattoo machine to draw a tattoo on your body, you can make a simple one to do the nail job.

Things below are necessary: a fountain pen, a tooth brush, an eraser, a lighter, guitar strings, ink, batteries, tapes and a small motor which would operate the batteries.

Let's start with the fountain pen. Take off the ink tube and get rid of its ball. Cut a proper section of the guitar string making the needle to fit into the tip of the fountain pen.

Remove the bristles of the tooth brush, and then use your lighter to heat in the middle to make the tooth brush in 90 degree form. Hold it until it's stiff.

Join the above two items together with your tapes. And then put it aside to the nest staff.

Take the eraser to attach the middle of the motor shaft, and the put the end of the guitar string into the eraser.

Now the last thing is to find a power source. Then contact the batteries to the switch to make the motor work.

Basically the whole thing is done. If you are not very certain about the working condition of your handmade tattoo machine, you can try it on a banana.12587750440.jpg

First, during tattooing, we always regard the tattoo machines in our hands. As they are most used, we should choose the machines which have strong materials, avoiding breaking when drop on the ground. We can choose the materials which made of iron, brass or copper. In addition, good stability is important, so that the machines will not mess the design which we have done.
Second, we should notice the purpose of the tattoo machine. General, there are two purpose, one is "lining", the other one is "shading". You'd better consider to have two machines, one is for "lining", the other one is for "shading", so when you tattooing, you need't change the needles all the time. Certainly, there is a tattoo machine which can used for "lining" either for "shading" on sale in the market. If you are a new starter, you 'd better not buy this one. As this tattoo machine needs to switch the functions between lining and shading. Therefore, this tattoo machine suits the experienced tattoo artists.

The Ever Evolving Tattoo Machine

For many people, there are aspects of tattooing that is attractive and alluring. For almost anyone in the modern day world though, there's something to be said about the mechanics of a tattoo machine, and whether you're into giving or receiving tattoos, the way a tattoo machine actually works is pretty interesting, and most people are very surprised to find out that the invention of the tattoo machine was actually originally designed by Thomas Edison; the very man who gave us lightbulbs and the phonograph, and who filed over 1,000 patents for other inventions. The tattoo machine was originally invented in the 1800's, and of course it's received many improvements since then, and there's no telling where it will go in the future.

 

 In the modern day world, we're always fascinated by gadgets and technology, so it will be interesting to see where the tattoo machine will end up at. It's easy to imagine a tattoo machine that is computerized, allowing tattoo artists to use a small touch screen in order to select the color of their tattooing inks and choose the amount of power they want behind it. Tattoo artists like guns that are lightweight, and in a world where everything is smaller, this could be easily achieved. When tattoo artists are using tattoo machines, they get to control the level of power that is used to pressurize the needle against the customer's skin, and different needles are put into a tattoo machine in order to achieve different affects, such as shading, lining, and filling in. Just like a painter, tattoo artists use a combination of different needles, like paint brushes, in order to craft the tattooing inks into one beautiful design. It's the dream of every tattoo artist to find the perfect tattoo gun and tattooing inks, one that will allow them to work with ease, efficiency, and produce beautiful designs.

 

If you're a tattoo artist, you know the importance of using a tattoo machine that is well made and that feels right in your hand, making it easy for you to work with. While there's not a tattoo machine on the market that's like a tiny tattooing robot yet, you know a good product when you feel it in your hand, and know what good tattooing inks look like. Perhaps it could be you that improves upon tattoo guns and takes them to a whole other level…

How to Custom Made Your Tattoo Machine Frame

For experienced senior tattoo artists, they are more likely to build up their own tattoo machines with separate parts of high quality: the armature bar, the coils, and what's more important, the tattoo machine frame.  

 

It is not likely that you can hand made your own tattoo machine frame, in your little individual workshop, only by your simple or rough moulds and tools. Tattoo machine frame still needs professional manufacturing skills to make sure the final work performance it shows will be highly satisfying for the tattoo artists' demand of their practice. Thus, to choose one eligible tattoo machine frame which exactly fits the tattoo artists' expectation is truly something that needs artists to do some real research on.

 

Of course, the first thing that jumps out of your mind is to visit around the whole city, to find out deeply hidden tattoo machine frames in tattoo machine supplies stores. This is the most direct way although a little wasting time and energy. By directly facing to the products of the tattoo machine stores, you can compare and classify the quality of their goods and get a general image, correctly making your final decision.

 

However, there are always some times you could not find what you want all around your near. In this occasion, you may go on searching in the Internet to find a dreamed one. Buying or custom making your tattoo machine frame on the website has an obvious advantage which is that you don't need to worry about the environmental restriction and location problems, and various types of the machine frames you could select from the website stores will enhance your final buying choices. However, how could you know and exactly tell the shopkeeper on the website the dimension and appearance of your expected tattoo machine frame?

 

Some website stores supplying tattoo machine frames will offer you a plastic mould with the whole plate, by which you could carving or design your expected appearance for the tattoo machine frame. Besides this, you could also reply to them with your drawings that show the specific data, to double make sure the final product is precise.

 

In short, custom making the tattoo machine frame from the website has its good aspect as well as its disadvantage. If you are a tattoo machine supplier, opening tattoo stores on the website, you should consider the disadvantages for the customers to boom your own store.

To Clean a Tattoo Machine Frame

Tattoo machine can be seen as a most frequently used device with a very close relation to the human's handy work, for the tattoo artists must hold the GRP of the machine which is to be stuck by the tattoo machine frame for the artists to practice several hours to finish even a tiny tattoo pattern with a narrow area.

 

Even though the tattoo machine can be called as an outer packing for the tattoo machine, however, actually, the whole device of the machine is not an enclosed form which could seal all the inside parts exclusively away from the outside world. The role that a tattoo machine frame plays is that it only does the job of bracing other mechanical components all together by its semi-closed frame form, by bracing other parts it mainly means that connecting the tip which contains the needle and the two coils together so the electromagnetic power would make the needle push movements up and downs, by the way of through coils. So, some of the tattoo machine frames have the form of covering one side of the coils to make it look like a small wall, but some other don't. They just leave the coils showing out without any shelter.

So, here comes the problem of cleaning tattoo machines. Of course, a tattoo machine frame also deserves an attention equal to the tattoo machine though many people would miss it by accident. As we all know, tattoo machine's cleaning is not as usual as any common devices. Because the machine's needle and other parts which may also contact with the customers' skin, those specific parts need to be cleaning by professional sterilization apparatus.

However, the tattoo machine frame doesn't need to be sterilized specially as those certain parts, yet still, it needs frequently cleaning for it is the outsider skin of the tattoo machine and the semi-closed form of it would make it very easy to get dusty in its narrow corners. While practice, you may incautiously splash some ink onto the frame, if so, use sterilized cotton to wipe it over. Please remember, don't use soap or other special oils or something, because they can be corroding for the frame, and thus affect its working function.
