    Ryan Leitner replied to the topic Is altering the height of springs a bad idea? in the forum My Machine Hates Me! 4 years, 1 month ago

    Yea this site seems pretty dead, bummer. As long as your arm bar stays parrelel to the base, and the back coil isn’t touching your totally fine. Putting tape or something to cushion the metal to metal contact under the front coil is normal to reduce sound. An o ring under the front spring can help to reduce sound and make machine run smoother, b…[Read more]

    Ryan Leitner replied to the topic Linework and shading advice needed in the forum PREMIUM Member Forum 4 years, 2 months ago

    Getting a smooth gradient on fake skins is next to impossible unless your using premium stuff (pound of flesh, reel skins). Try getting some pig skin from a local butcher or Asian/Mexican market. Make sure it’s fresh, you want a pinkish tan color not a fair or white color. If it’s a little lighter in color on some spots that’s okay the skins can b…[Read more]

    Ryan Leitner started the topic Back spring tension for color packer in the forum PREMIUM Member Forum 4 years, 2 months ago

    What’s up everybody, I have a question about setting up a color packer with a large (over a nickel) point gap. I’ve been trying to set up another color packer with a larger throw/gap but I can’t seem to get the right rear spring tension to do so. when ever I bend the back spring at an angle that looks right to me, I’ll then try to run it and it…[Read more]

    Ryan Leitner started the topic Rake marks when shading on pig in the forum How to Practice 4 years, 2 months ago

    What’s up everybody. I’m at work so I have to make this quick and to the point. How do you avoid rake marks when your using a mag (9 round mag). My shadings coming along nicely, but I still see little lines from the individual needles in a mag all through my shading. Why?

    Ryan Leitner started the topic Whip shading in the forum Design Ideas / Technique 4 years, 2 months ago

    What’s up everybody, this is my first actual post. I just wanted to hear a description (I know it’s hard to put into words) of how one would go about whip shading a medium to larger size area. I’m new to tattooing, I started getting into it about 8 months ago. Started with research and books. Made sure I got a good grasp of machine tuning, sprin…[Read more]

    Bro, how the f$;& is that your first tattoo? Lol. I’m impressed, think you’ll make the transition from pencil to machine just fine.

    Ryan Leitner replied to the topic First proper tattoo in the forum Post your work here 4 years, 3 months ago

    What’s up! I’m new here to, this is actually my first post. I’m no pro so I’m not gonna be able to give you pointers but I’m thinking it looks pretty good. Solid lines and shading, skin doesn’t look beat up. Good job, seems like you got your fundamentals down.
