I have to say, your channel is the most informative, I've come across. I like that you're calm when explaining things. Your disposition is impeccable. I also love how you're straight to the point, without small talk. You take time to explain EVERY detail, and I am appreciative that you are sharing your knowledge. Thank you!! Now that I've praised you and got your attention, may I send my machines to you, for tuning?? 😂😂😂 JK...
Tattoo University awesome man. Did you get my comment on your video about what exactly a longer or shorter stroker is for? like does it make the needle go deeper or what? Does it have a certain job when hitting the skin when having a longer or shorter stroke?
Your ink will determine how much stroke you need. If you have really thick ink you need a little more stroke. A longer stroke will slow your machine down also. Lining ink is thinner and typical liner doesn't have a lot of throw. The ink flows easier and machine is faster. This allows you to tattoo with faster hand speed. The ink runs out quicker so you have to dip more. You can also set up a liner with more throw. This liner will be slower and you build up lines. This is the liner I'm going to do in my next video. This liner has more throw and you can use thicker ink. I use eternal or bloodline inks with this liner. You don't have to dip as much and you can work an area more.
Am i the only guy left in this world that uses/prefers Spaulding and Rogers equipment? I have a shitload of the cheaper machines and dont like em, ive never had a problem with Spaulding and Rogers machines
and can u please let us know, that you can use one machine for all jobs lining and coloring and shading, isn't that right. do it just matter how u move your hand and how hard u press down on the skin. and thanks for all the tips.
Yes you can use one machine for everything, but it has to be the right machine. How you move your hand will give you different effects but it will not help you pack color with the wrong machine. If you are lining you can speed up your hand to get a shading effect. You can also do the whip technique to feather out the line. I would not press down hard on someone while tattooing. You only put enough pressure to get to the correct depth. With experience you can feel the correct pressure while tattooing. Pushing harder will just cause you to go too deep. You can use one machine If you get a rotary machine that allows you to adjust it. I have coils that do several things. I can use my hand movements to mimic different techniques but I don't use one machine for everything. I can color blend with a shader but I would go to a color packer if I want solid color. I can line with a shader but I move my hand slower. You can get a machine do do several things. You have to know about machines and needles in order to do that. With the knowledge you can make machines do a lot of things. I've been told you can't line with a rotary machine. I line with a rotary machine all the time. You just have to know how to adjust it and what style machine works best. I would keep studying. Keep learning so you can understand your machines. Also learn your needle groups and how they work. If I put a short tapered needle into a shader it will pack color easier than a long tapered needle.
Usually I look at the size of the core and the wire. It is difficult some times because they cover the wire with shrink wrap some times. The diameter of the wire can be different also. Cheap coils usually put thin wire on the cores. Your 8 wraps are going to be smaller.
is the spring will depend on youre coil machine,correct me if I'm wrong forgive me but that im beginner but my understand that the spring is more tension the more that youre coil will easy getting to heat..pls
like your videos, have learned a lot, thank you. However, in another video, you explained that one should put longer screws in the coils for improving the magnetism, why then put in shorter ones on this machine? Many thanks in advance for your time
Longer screws work better. I still like messing around with tattoo machines and doing experiments. I still try different things. Just for my curiousity.
We have reached 6,000 subscribers. That was a benchmark to see how the channel would do. I'm ready to put a lot more time and energy into the videos. I'm wanting to get better equipment to improve the quality of the channel. You can help the channel out for free. Just go to the gawkbox link below and play some games on your phone. You can also watch some videos. Help me out so I can help you out. If you don't want to play games you can donate to the channel. Just post a dontation with PayPal to jauntyartist@hotmail.com. You can also contact me at jauntyartist@hotmail.com if you need some tattoo machines fixed and tuned. For a small fee and the shipping cost I'll fix your machines. Thanks, Nick Durant www.gawkbox.com/tattoouniversity
The only reason why I'm counting the subscribers was to know if I should continue with the channel. I was just using it as feedback to see how many of you were paying attention. It isn't a money thing or a fame thing. Just let me know you guys are there and learning. Thanks for the support.
I've done a lot of tattoos with these machines. I will do a special video where I tattoo with them. That or I will see if someone will send me the worst machines they have. I will fix them up and make them work.
I think your armature weight is in grams bro. A 5oz armature bar is just a tad heavy don't ya think. I have coil machines that come in at like 6 or 7oz for the whole thing....lmao
that tension ruler isn't that good to use, it's like saying all cars have the same parts, it actually make it harder when using of different tattoo machines. they all have different, spring thickness, and thinner. and required different way to blend the springs. so u have to know how hard and strong you're coils are, if you find the balance between the coils and ambar, are you're coils strong enough to pull the tension that is on the springs. but by using that tool u will more then likely burn your coils out by using the tension tool. its like saying all cars have the Same parts, some do but a lot are different. think about it.
That is why you have to practice tuning machines. Have to practice and not listen to what other people say. You are right. This is what people need to learn.
i love your channel. big fan. i have one question though. after a while of tattooing machines start getting lazy and i need to flick the armature bar or shake the machine to get in running?
Machine is working too hard and over heating. You have to turn up the voltage to get it running correcgtly. If you machine isn't tuned correctly it will do this faster. A good machine that is tuned properly will take a long time before it heats up. Try tuning the machine and using only the least amount of voltage you need to do the job.
When machines heat up they don't work as good. You have to turn up the voltage. This just makes the problem worse. More voltage equals more heat. That is why its important to just use the right amount of voltage. Tune the machine so it doesn't have to work hard to do the job
First, thank's a lot for the knowledge, this so helpful. I'm having a hard time adjusting coil hight specially while trying to get the screw through the joke, the washers and the coil... the machine originally had the washers over the joke but makes it harder to assemble them so i put the washers down the joke making this one to be kind of diagonal (cause i need more washers in one side than the other.) Does it matter? Also, my armature bar is a bit long... it needs about a millimeter to fit perfectly in the tube. How can I adjust it? Again, thanks.
There could be several reasons why arm bar isn't going down. Could have too much tension on the rear spring. Could be contact screw needs adjustment. Need to make sure gap is correct. I would need to see the problem shoot the machine.
@@TattooUniversity figured out the problem. Coils too tall. I have 1.25" need 1" . I was going off my other machine which was 1.25" and the new frame I bought has a lower back deck.
The material on the washer doesn't matter that much. The shape of the washer is more of a concern. I like a square washer more. Get rid of those little round washers.
Tattoo University dudeeee, thats a fast answer. Found it in the other video already and ordered 1.5mm, which is like 15gauge or smth. Thanks a lot for spreading the knowledge.
Hey bro I like what your doing here! But if your armature bar weighs 3-5 ounces your gonna need like a v-8 coil machine to push those. LOL.. I think your reading the scale incorrectly buddy. Just a little constructive criticism. Keep up the good work. Think about it 4 ounces is a quarter of a pound. I think what your reading is .4 ounces which is like 12grams or some shit.
I just used the scale to show people that your armature bars have different weights. Was not trying to be accurate with a scale used to measure food. I might of said something incorrectly. I have to focus on so many things to make these videos. Sometimes I say something wrong and don't catch it. Thanks for the comment.
Yes, I could of made a mistake. It is difficult to concentrate on shooting video and explaining things at the same time. When you are talking you don't realize the mistake until later. As long as you understand and learn I'm okay with it. It is not worth throwing away a good video for a minor mistake. Thanks for catching that. Will be more careful in the future.

Your cat playing with the arm bars when you were weighing them had me laughing my ass off!!! I'm a huge cat lover :)
That is our new kitten. It is so curious. I can't do anything without it right there.

Thanks for the comment. If you ever need to you can send me your machines.
Tattoo University Wow, thank you sir. How do I get your email, so I can get an address without having to push it over the worldwide web? 😬
jauntyartist@hotmail.com
Thank you. I'll lock it in and shoot you an email as soon as I can.
Your cat was trying to weight the bars too! So cute, haha!
your the man..i learn something new every single video
what is the typical cps you would have for a liner, shader, and color packer?
that is what I try to do
Depends on who is using them. Typical answer is liner 120-150, shader 100-120, color packer 90-120

Sure thing
Love your videos dude. So informative.
Thank You!
You have some of the best videos for this stuff. Thanks man!
Thanks a lot for this video.
You are most welcome
Am i the only guy left in this world that uses/prefers Spaulding and Rogers equipment?

I like there supreme. I have an old one. I just don't use the silver contact points on the springs..
and can u please let us know, that you can use one machine for all jobs lining and coloring and shading, isn't that right. do it just matter how u move your hand and how hard u press down on the skin.

how can you tell what type of coils you have. I know there different amount of wraps around cores. good video though have great information

7:27 your cat😂
Those guys are always curious when I'm doing stuff.
Can I see a tattoo you have done with those quality machines?
I've done a lot of tattoos with these machines. I will do a special video where I tattoo with them. That or I will see if someone will send me the worst machines they have. I will fix them up and make them work.
I bought now a power supply that is the devil dpr-2 similar to elfin dpr-2 know if the power supply is good for those who want a good power supply?
me!! im sure its gone but mines crap lol
I had fingers before i watched this
I think your armature weight is in grams bro. A 5oz armature bar is just a tad heavy don't ya think. I have coil machines that come in at like 6 or 7oz for the whole thing....lmao
how do you prevent carbon from building up on contact screw?

This takes practice. I've adjusted so many machines. You get the hang of it after a while
Probably need to cut the notch in the rear spring so it's a little shorter
That's the thing about tattoo machines. All the little things matter. If it's not right it won't work correctly.
Alot of times those cheap yokes arent flat and/or arent the right height
What do I need to do with my rear spring cause I have a slope on my rear platform. My armature bar won't go down.
There could be several reasons why arm bar isn't going down. Could have too much tension on the rear spring. Could be contact screw needs adjustment. Need to make sure gap is correct. I would need to see the problem shoot the machine.
@@TattooUniversity figured out the problem. Coils too tall. I have 1.25" need 1" . I was going off my other machine which was 1.25" and the new frame I bought has a lower back deck.
I dont why, I really like to use the ink holder, when Im crossing colors....
If you use it just make sure you cover it. You could use plastic wrap
Tattoo University I bag it, of course...
If it works for you then go for it. Everyone has their way of doing things.
Tattoo University
If its not broken dont fix it...
I have and iron bulldog style frame can I use a brass rear deck washer or does it have to be iron as well
The material on the washer doesn't matter that much. The shape of the washer is more of a concern. I like a square washer more. Get rid of those little round washers.
how thick should the cable be i replace the clipcord and other ones with?
18 gauge or thicker
Tattoo University dudeeee, thats a fast answer. Found it in the other video already and ordered 1.5mm, which is like 15gauge or smth. Thanks a lot for spreading the knowledge.

где видео , о том как настраиваешь машинки при помощи тюнера, на телефоне?
Я не мог бы иметь, что один больше. Если я найду его я отправлю его снова.
Thank you! I'll be waiting!
Where are y'all located at
California
5,ounces?? JESUS. Zor dí u mean 5grams. I don't steed that armature weighing. That much
Yes, I could of made a mistake. It is difficult to concentrate on shooting video and explaining things at the same time. When you are talking you don't realize the mistake until later.
