A reel, revolving handle or handle is a good starting point [part 3]

Since we already know almost everything, the matter should be clear! However, the budget you have allocated remains unknown, so let's summarize all the pros and cons when considering purchase costs.

A reel, revolving handle or handle is a good starting point [part 3]

Coil machine

This type is the only one really loud among tattoo machines, and the noise level should not be underestimated, and if we want to train in concentration and silence, then we do not need to think about it. However, the design allows for great adjustment and versatility, with quality playing a key role - for comfortable power and smooth operation, we need a razor made with precision and quality materials. Cheap equipment will good for studybut mostly learning to set up and customize. There are reasonable models in the range to get you started. 200-500 PLN, and equipment for regular work is a cost, usually in excess of the amount PLN 600... The Reel Machine is an immortal device, so you may be tempted by the higher price range if you see the purchase as an investment for years.

Rotary machine

Quiet, lightweight and strong enough not to be intimidated by modular needles. But let's not be too optimistic. Unfortunately, for little money, we usually get a good body and a bad Chinese drive, which can quickly refuse to cooperate, and the death of an engine is often the death of an entire machine due to high replacement costs this item. Fortunately, quite decent and vital equipment is inexpensive. We'll find simple, somewhat crude, but decent models in about PLN 200... A good entrance ceiling is approx. 350 PLNwhich should provide a reasonable compromise between quality and weight, but if we want to add some adjustment to the equation that comes in handy when we get the basics, then we have to raise the bar a bit. The warranty conditions are definitely an important criterion.

Pen type rotary machine

Quiet, light, strong and fabulously comfortable! Not without drawbacks, but for those who prefer a premium service, they are definitely the best. Takeoff ceiling about PLN 600-800, although in this regard, we will be on the lookout for good warranty conditions. Average price of decent equipment is approx. PLN 1200but if we dream about the possibility of regulation, let's get ready for more. Pens are also more expensive to use, as they only work with cartridges, which are, on average, 4 times more expensive than a classic stylus.
