This site is no substitute for a formal apprenticeship
This site is no substitute for a formal apprenticeshipThis site is not a substitute for a professional apprenticeship with a licensed tattoo studio. Nor is this site a definitive source for learning the art or trade of tattooing. An apprenticeship is the ONLY universally accepted way to learn proper safety practices and sound technique.
While we welcome members of all levels, we STRONGLY advocate staying away from skin until you've received formal training from someone who works in the field. Hell, even hair stylists must complete over a year of courses, pass a state health board exam, and apprentice under a professional studio before earning a chair.
The trade of tattooing has a rich history and traditions that have been passed down from generation to generation. If you respect the art, please show your respects by learning the right way.

i just purchased two machines from checkmate, a liner and a shader, they both run great but the back springs keep breaking! they have broken on both machines twice now and they seem to break within 4-6 hours of use. the liner runs at 130hz loaded and the shader at 115hz, 160 and 130 unloaded. I was hoping somebody might have some suggestion so i dont throw $500 down the drain! the both seem to break right at the corner of the spring shelf but i also had one break about half way up.. here what they look like broke and not broken....
