HOW I SET UP MY TATTOO STATION / BONUS: HOW I WRAP MY BISHOP WAND MACHINE
Vložit
- čas přidán 6. 09. 2024
- This week I’ll be showing you how I set up my station for tattooing. This is how I set up with the goal of being as clean, healthy and sanitary as possible to keep both myself and the client safe from blood born pathogens.
I go over how I set up my station from start to finish, how I add clean barriers to my armrest and table, and how I wrap my bishop wands eliminating any cross contamination.
This demo and the tips and tricks mentioned in this video are intended for existing tattoo artists to implement into their clean set up. This isn’t the only way to be sanitary, but by sharing my methods, I hope to give you all some ideas that you can immediately add to your routine.

No such thing as overkill when dealing with your safety and customer safety 👍 this is awesome
This is so refreshing to see- I see so many artists doing little things here and there that aren’t sanitary and they don’t seem to think anything of it. Thank you for this! More artists need to take tips from this.
thanks for the kind words! i appreciate it.
I entirely agree!
I'm very cautious about my set up, but some of the the things u did here on this vid make it alot simpler and safe. Thanks!!!😊👍💯🔥
Glad it was helpful!
This is great bro. interesting to see how other shops do it too.
thanks brotha! i appreciate it hope it gave that insight
If you buy clip cord sleeves and cut them in half they are long enough to fit both machine and battery without removing the grip. So your essentially just incasing the whole thing with plenty of room for adjustment and it's 100% covered
I finally broke down and got the power wand and have been trying different ways on my own for wrapping the thing. I was having trouble with it being difficult to adjust the needle depth. I very much like your method, thank you so much for sharing! 🤘
I appreciate your disclaimers in the beginning, very professional.
thanks brotha i try !
Nice and very professional video
much appreciated!
This was super helpful, thanks for posting!
Napoleon dynamite vibe with the music and the almost monotone. Love this.
I'm about to buy two of those machines and I'm gonna start wrapping them like that. I'm probably gonna get the shader but, I'm gonna see how the packer works for me and see if I need the shader or not. I like your videos, though. I've subscribed.
What a great video. Thanks for laying everything out for us! Literally.
My pleasure!
Is there anyway you could do a full video on cleaning your machines step by step?
I’ll see what I can do!
Love ur information nd video style thanks for the info
thank you! im glad you are digging them!
keep going man, awesome videos
thanks!! much appreciated
I think the tare down is as important as the setup. And setting up a certain way can bring cross contamination in the tare down.
good idea maybe ill make a video about that soon
@@gallosantiago4776please do bro! And the way you clean up your machine before and after a project on a client is done
Helpfull. : )
very good description.👍🏿👍🏿
could you make a video on the maintenance of bishop wands??
im sure i can find a link for one from bishop but i definitely wouldnt know where to start on maintenance any more brotha!
@@gallosantiago4776 do you do anything to it? like add oil
I love your videos.please let me know how you cold sterilze the grip?
hi im sorry but these grips arent like traditional machines where theres ink moving in them all of the bio hazard stays contained within the cartridge if you are using good brand cartridges! so the grip would really just need to be wiped down with what ever you area already sanitizing your work surface with in my opinion.
Awesome! 👏👏👏✨✨✨✨✨
You're doing a good job brotha... 😍😍😍big fan
thanks!! appreciate the support
Awesome vid😎👍
Thanks 😁
Great video! Considering you have such a careful way of working, i would love to hear some tips of how to set up the machine if it's the new wand with critical batteries. I got one of those recently, and so far I'm struggling since i keep choosing between comfortably adjusting needle or trying to make the battery face the front of cartridge 😅 i know it sounds silly but it cuts out a bunch of time overall to constantly twist the machine to turn it off, and i just can't figure out how to divide ring and battery without interrupting coverage so i can twist them separately 🥲
hey brotha id love to help can you clarify a little more for me
@@gallosantiago4776 no problem! Right now im wrapping the three parts of the machine separately, and then add wrapping tape to grip and a fine strip to the ring of the machine (the part that changes color depending on the wand version). But by using this method, I get complete coverage from the cartridge to that said ring, but if I touch the battery with wet gloves for example with vaseline, I get the joint contaminated since the wrapping interrupts so I can plug the battery and also twist it. Hope that helps but if not and you don't mind feel free to contact me through instagram.com/emiiink and I'll send a video of my machine wrapped 😊
Hello, thanks for video 😊 Could you tell me please, why don’t you use clip cord cover for cover machine and battery together, just put machine inside with battery already? Thank you )
the sleeves i use wouldnt fit over it too well i believe but i might be wrong but ill give it a try! thanks! regardless i always wrap the grip separately to make it easy to adjust needle throw if that makes sense!
6:38 the seran wrap sits tight enough between needle changes? Is there a way to wrap the inside where the needle sits? And how goes one about cleaning the grip? Alcohol or autoclave?
I always shave my clients and then clean with alcohol that’s our health department recommended rules but I’m wondering have you ever had anyone get razor burn or bumps from being shaved ?
great question, yeah i shave everyone no matter how their hair is and what i try to do is not shave against the grain and i use alcohol to clean the skin before shaving then shave with green soap and wipe off the soap with water to no irritate the skin more
Where did you get the stainless table? I don’t want a station with the lip on it, but I can’t find this one
it should be in the description
@@gallosantiago4776 can't see it in your description?
Very helpful. Thank you! What battery is that?
B charged from bishop
What voltatage do you run for lining and shading on the packer
Been looking for s stainless steel cart like yours, can you share where you got your cart?
hey in the description there should be a link!
Could stuff!please show how you wipe down the tube/?
No mention autoclaving tattoo pen grip. Even though membrane cartridges are used, cross contamination still can get up inside of grip just by handling and switching out cartridges during tattoo process and laying them on contaminated work area surface.
DaVinci v2’s don’t. Also grab the cartridge at the bottom. Not top. Problem solved
@@JOKE485It still is laid on a contaminated work tray ! You obviously do not care for your clients health. CDC recommendation is to autoclave metal reusable grips. A cold sterilization is not just wiping down with madicide it is were a instrument that submerged for 3-12 hours.
@@Scoobieish cringe
@@Scoobieish You switch needles on a contaminated work tray how? How is it contaminated dude. Nothing touches the area besides your needles which you put in a tray. Everything else is sealed and packed. The grip is sealed aswell, why bother with autoclaving it. In my opinion a cold sterilization is enough. I ultrasonic clean my grip for about 5 minutes aswell (which is btw literally what Reymerink - Podisonic tells you to do btw.
@@Scoobieish "When you cover your tattoo machine and have it sealed inside the plastic bag, as well as taking care that it does not come into contact with any liquids, blood or any other working equipment (that includes your used gloves), you do not need to sterilise your machine for the next customer. Nonetheless, you need to clean and disinfect your tattoo equipment, even though it has been sealed in a plastic bag."
Hi, what did you use to wrap the battery, I couldn't understand,
All the best and thanks for the video ✌
hey! its plastic wrap/cling wrap/seran wrap, kinda different names for it its just a barrier film!
Samich bag
The packer you think is good as an all around machine?
Yes. It is.
yeah you cant go wrong with the shader or packer, for me the packer does better animal fur though
Anybody have issues with needle cartridges requiring more strength to pull out of the wand machine ?
Same
Removing the grip in every tattoo wont loosen on time?
Most grips are threaded so, no that shouldn’t happen.
Why did you clarify it’s intended for people already in a shop and not to teach anyone?
He trying be “politically correct” 😂
So if you successfully and thoroughly wrap your machine using the steel grip instead of disposables, do you have to still autoclave that grip?
Which machine do you use more, shader wand or packer wand?
honestly i use them both about the same, ive been using the shader more lately because im gonna do a review on it so just using it more to get more familiar
Which brand machine are you using
bishop wand brotha
Awesome video as always! i got a quick question, what was your voltage range with the bishop packer as say if you would line with a 1205RL to -> 1211RL? i come from coils, and the cheyenne thunder, and somehow, i find it hard to get the lines look great when healed when i use the machine, we use the elite brand carts, i know that has alot to say, but with the other machines i have perfect healing, with the packer not :( i'm around 8.5-9 volt when lineing with all groupings, i have tried to to like 7.5 and so on, but it takes forever to line. - And would you be able to do your soft black and grey with the packer? have you tried? i'm wondering if to buy the shader aswell.... Thanks!
hey bro i come from coils too and i switched to the bishop wand a few months back. i can tune the hell out of coils so i had a really hard time getting used to the rotaries but what i found out is that each rotary has a recommended voltage to run them at. mainly because the motar is made to run a certain way. i also heard its hard to line with most rotaries and what i know about my coil liner is that i need a big stroke and a hard hit so i invested in the bishop wand liner because it has the biggest stroke for any rotary and still i have to run my hand a little slower than a coil but its been working for me lately. plus i notice when im lining an ink bubble will collect at the tip of my cartredge and it stops the ink from flowing properly when im lining so i have to keep an eye on that along with where my throw is set. hope that helps.
@@BennyParcher totally does help! thanks, great answer, yea i have been a little bit scared of the wand liner to purchase it, it can really scar some people i think, thats why i bought the packer so i would have a great all around machine, it just dosent seem to hit as i want it, about the packer tho voltage, its hard because some few people i know line where i do around 9 v, but 90% does around 6-7 volts, but when i go down there i just... i dont know, it just seems so soft hit :D but thanks man!
i would definitely drop it out significantly lower brotha, i dont use it to line but my ex is a illustrative artist and she did really clean lines working around the 5.6 to 6.1 range and id probably start there, while it might be slower the machine is designed a certain way and is gonna line how ever it wants to line and you just gotta find that sweet spot and adapt. i could definitely see how that speed you have it at might affect the healing. hope that helps!
@@simonkristiansen960 the wand liner still doesn’t hit as hard as my coil but I can line with the packer too. I use a 5 rl and I’m still having issues with bigger needle groupings but I put the needle almost all the way out and run it a little higher. Also I noticed the wands are so light I have to push a little to imitate the weight of my coil machine. I almost went back to coils over it. I stuck with it though and things are getting better.
@@gallosantiago4776 thanks alot!! what would you shade on with the packer? also around 5-6 volts? i do stipple work at 5 volts.
I'm loving how meticulous you are.
Why you make your machine big?
hey! you mean the grip? its for comfort i have big hands and feel better with a larger grip and the paper towel feels better 👍
@@gallosantiago4776 Yes, the grip. I hold my machine with my fingers like a pencil. My lines a bit shaking, i still working on it.
Thanks for answer! I already follow you on insta before you made your youtube chanel😊
@@ffightmarvel8732 that’s y your lines are shaky. Get a bigger grip. For more tattoo tips give me a follow
@@Unicornballs69Its pretty pathetic trying to get people to follow your page while on someone else's.
What voltage u use for shading? For the shader.
he uses 8.1
Do you line with it? What voltatage
