Okay, heres my dilemma;
I'm buying most of my supplys from kingpin(Hoping they wont check to see if I'm in a shop..) but thats my problem. I'm wanting to invest in a good machine that I'll be able to use when I start tattooing and now while I'm just at home tattooing Grapefruit and fake skin(Or pigskin) but unfortunately all of the machines I'm looking at and have had suggested to me are customs that claim to check shops... Anywhere I can get all of my supplies in ONE shop and get a nice machine too? |

cant find it under that name either - what do you guys use to sit down your equipment on so not to contaminate from the surface?

In UK,cling film,if you want disposable absorbant,cheap J cloth over cling film.Butchers paper aka wax paper available from caterers suppliers on site or mail order - local directory or web - or a big retailers wholesaler chain like Bookers (who only want to sell to business but if you make up a letterhead with your name and address and get a couple of free catalogues of some sort sent to that same place they are pretty complacent,
I find J cloth works well enough.I use it over cling film on seating,couch,armrests etc as well as primary equipment contact surfaces,As I said,absorbant,disposable... and less risk of ripping cling plastic film. If anyones gonna say " is it sterile?",well,is paper on a roll?Be sensible and keep it stored well and its as good as anything.I reckon. -------------------- GENTLEMAN LOSER -- INTERNATIONAL SLUM DOG -- ON A FARM

yeah i want a stainless steel trolley - ive been searching for dis-used medical and surgery equipment but havent found one yet - catering supplies have small tables but i want something that wheels around like when you go to hospital, a good top and a couple drawers would be ideal - when i set up my new work area i want it looking all medical like - crisp and clean - ive been to a few tattooists that have skulls and heads hanging frrom the ceiling and it looks like a dungeoun or something - was really off putting for me when i first got inked, i think though times have changed since then

Ebay have LOADS od s/steel prep tables and the like for 10 quid and up cos loads of restuarants are going under.A local engineer will put casters on for you,get some good ball bearing ones like music industry use,ADAM HALL are are good supplier.The clean up trolleys (thats what caterers call the multi shelf ones) can be had new for about £60 delivered if you shop around on the net...I will look out for the fyler we had (we produce meat),yheres lots of good stuff,s/steeldishes/trays with lids.cleaning stuff,all sorts.....

dont tell me......your half scot too?
 I am talking northern cheap,fill yer boots cheap!Down my way we just steal what we need off the tourists...or in winter off of neighbours and relatives (normally the same thing!)  just remember - rude boy cant fail!Go stick out that brass yorkshire neck and get haggling.I picked up some good stainless tables,even one with handwash sink fitted for fivers at an auction - get in touch with your local big estate agents and see when they do disposal sales,farm sales (meat processing stainless) and general auctions  shocksi -------------------- GENTLEMAN LOSER -- INTERNATIONAL SLUM DOG -- ON A FARM
