Hey all,
Travelling back from the Northampton tattoo convention. Have never seen so many rotaries in use! Like dragon fly city!
Who is using what? Was speaking to killer ink aswell as a few artists And they all do seem so smooth in the skin, my main concern is healing.
As they do seem to heal so much smoother. I love my coils, but rotaries seem like You can just keep working and working and no trauma.
Next on my list is a jackhammer, hyper v2 and a bishop.
What are you using or what you reccomend?
Thanks all.

I was proper hung up on coils, i used some cheap jackhammer rotarys from ebay an hated them, stuck with my coils.... untill i got to have a go with an actual long stroke dragonfly. F00kin loved it!! So much so i now only have one coil left (which i will sell soon)
I got the Dragonfly long stroke an use it for sculpting lines mostly and does good for packing and can cope with shading too
Dragonfly short stroke, my main liner, also great for smooth shading and an alright packer.
Plain brass Rotary Works machine which is good for packing, not really gotten on with it for shading yet, Is an ok back up liner if my short dragonfly ever plays up but as yet not needed to swap.
I really wanna have a go with shading with a stigma hyper v2 and ive heard alot of good things about the bishop machines.
As with any machine though its all about your set up an how you use it. Fair enough the rotarys dont have as many variables as a coil but they do still vairy, an what works perfect for one wont work so smoothly for all.

For being the first reply, Have a Karma Mightymouse! thanks for all the info, after i worte this post i ended up wth,
a 2.5mm neotat original
3 x swashdrive whip copies 1 lines perfect, sencond does light shading lovely, 3rd i havent used
and spent alot on a new V3 hyper i used to line a few days ago and its beautiful, with a crank of knob i can convert it shade smoothly, will be looking for another just to use a second colout machine.
Bishops are a beautiful looking machine but it has no adjustable give, similar to the orinial neotat, but would colour packing/blending its fine with hand speed adjustments.
Next on the list is another V3 and a Neotat Vivace

awww my first karma Think im going to go for a stigma when i have some pennys saved and obviously when i have figured out the differences between the hyper V3 and the bizarre... think it will be the hypre... cant find any V2's anywhere Where did ya get ya whip copys from? ive read up about em last night an apparently they are not as versitile/adjustable as the dragonflys. Im gonna presume ya V3 lines better than ya swash copy?

whip copies are from ebay, Tatslife supplies, they are the firefly brand (so i found out the hard way) but i have to say they are good just need an oil up. the only thing thats different is the motor and to be fair it still runs sound! - ive only used the V3 to line once, but the swash is mint, the only downside to it is you have to get your depth and hand speed spot on, when you do, the lines are very clean, i practiced on my legs and there the best lines ive ever done, i just want to give the V3 a chance. Advantage for me is the swah is virtually wieghtless....
ive got a session on saturday so im going to use the V3 running a 7rl and swash with a 5rl for detail to compare.
Sorry to say but the V2's are discontinued, so thats probably why... might be lucky with fleabay or a convention, but i know the last one i went too killer ink only had one left but i ended up getting inked rather buying it!
never really liked the bizzare mainly becasue theres too many parts and just as pricey, go V3 you wont be dissapointed, im not and ive only ran it once!

Hi guys I have been using my rotary's now for the last few months i started out with a jackhammer from the tattooshop witched i loved for color packing i was still using my coils for lining then i picked up a swashwhip and fell in love with it for lining i did notice the softclip was to soft so changed to the harder clip and it was perfect. After a while i noticed when pulling a line my hand would start to lift while pulling a line which meant i would have to give it a second pass. I have moved on to 2 rotary works a long stroke brass for lining and i have not looked back tuck a bit to get use to but is working out grate for me now and the other rotary works is a ally one i use for shading it is exultant for the job in hand not grate for color packing to short a stroke.I now use my whip for color packing and its working grate at the moment,I do want to buy a hawk so i ordered a copy just to see if i like it or not before i buy the real thing ill post up a revue on that when it arrives and i do some color work with it as this is what i want it for also going to order some ttech needles to work with it.
