      You have asked a lot of questions! This is a tattoo machine specific question forum – for apprentices.
      You should work on your drawings – and you should make sure if you are going to tattoo your friends that you use plastic tubes and throw away the tube, tip, grip, and needle each time.
      Do not use metal tubes and tips.

      You really should learn with a quality machine – usually the professional suppliers will ONLY sell to studios and or licensed artists.
      If you ask a specific question about your machines maybe we can help – but you have pretty much said “umm teach me something about my machine…”

      Have you even tried to talk to someone who owns a tattoo studio in your home town??
      Bring a bunch of drawings in there – and PAY a real artist to give you a tattoo – and watch.. and ask questions…
      Thats my advice for now…
      best of luck.

      NEVER try to teach yourself. You will end up with many bad habits. Get a apprenticeship anywhere you can , as long as you get your foot in the door. You wouldn’t trust a self taught surgeon would you?
