Tattoo Machines And Their Secrets: ELECTROMAGNETIC TATTOO MACHINES ARE NOT OBSOLETE

TATTOO MACHINE TUNING AND REPAIR

How many of you have a drawer full of electromagnetic tattoo machines that need repair or tuning? If so.... we are here for you. Send em, we'll fix em and get em running at 100%. With 6 international patents on tattoo machine technology and 39 years of tattooing with coil machines, you will receive your machines back, ready to do what they do best. The most versatile machines in the trade are the electromagnetic machines, in conjunction with sharp needles and quality pigment dispersions and washes. Repair warranty can be purchased in one year increments. Please contact us for information on price, shipping, warranty etc. :

Electromagnetic tattoo machines are NOT obsolete.

The picture painted by the 'CURRENT' tattoo industry actively reflects the direct opposite, and can be seen in every aspect of today's tattooing; the Artists' egos, paired with the lack of ambition to forego fully learning tattooing and all involved (which is also tattooing), in favor of shopping online for an over-hyped glorified prison machine with pre-assembled substandard 'cartridges' kits with sticky tape bandages and believing that they have arrived! Products sold to them by non-tattoo artist suppliers who do not know nor understand function or process in the proper ethical application, selling to ANYONE, qualified and NOT qualified, and not providing honest services. Is it any wonder that accomplished artists and long time users of coil machines, who have tried to adapt to 'current' rotary tattoo machine technology, have told us that they feel that they have regressed artistically while using these 'pens'? Versatility is key. Control of rotations per second with one built in forceful impact on a rotary as opposed to an adjustable stroke (movement and speed), distance of 'potential' needle movement and an incrementally adjustable magnetic field to lessen or augment needle impact to accommodate skin types, needle grouping affecting artistic results including single needle application whose performance depends on movement and impact!

Many of us remember the days of wanting to master all aspects of the art to include without limit to machine function and its tuning, diagnosing and repairing problems, improving its performance, the making and understanding of needle groupings, needle tapers, wire gauge, tightness of groupings and the results they will produce, the pigments; washes, color blends and fades, putting in opaques and achieving perfect results without scarring or blown out lines. We won't touch on health compliance which should always be part of the process. To be able to look at yourself in the mirror and feel that you have mastered and magical art that brings freedom in so many ways.... there are no words to describe the incredible satisfaction to know that you are accomplished in this art. So, how do any of these 'tatters' ( insulting slang) of today look at themselves in the mirror and really believe they've arrived?

The association of the electromagnetic tattoo machines with 'old school' simplistic tattooing and its basic artistic techniques, along with artists drifting away from tried and true technology and technique due to frustrations encountered in attempting to learn electromagnetic machine function, trouble shooting and tuning in order to achieve certain artistic results from 'teachers' who, themselves have been misled, who pass on mis-information. The permanent application of every style of art onto a porous canvas depends not only on the pigments injected, the tapers on the pins comprising each grouping of needles, but the force at which these needle groupings impact the skin - the performance of the machine.

With only one moving part, how hard can it be to master? We offer seminar workshops to educate. We understand technique, we understand all the tools involved our art, we believe in removing those who do not belong and keeping out those who want to come in and exploit our treasured art.

V2 MACHINE...

In the above photo, is our successful V2 machine. The slanted square coil assembly was designed and prototyped in 1999 and the patent was granted in our "square electromagnetic coil assembly" in 2003. The frame was designed to accommodate the V2 Coils assembly, to comfortably move the spring (gauge) armature bar assembly with the speed and force necessary to apply smooth shades, solid lines with any size grouping, fine and single needle lines as well as large magnums... truly a versatile all in one machine. The futuristic aesthetics are included!!! The early stages of the design were the most interesting. Cutting balsa, sanding, doing math to figure out how much each casted metal frame would weigh in relation to the mass of the balsa. On the first runs of this frame, we did a CNC frame machined out of billet aluminum - the cost was approximately $320 each. We also casted brass and aluminum. Brass was unreal, there was a run of maybe 20 brass. The aluminum became our choice for the V2, weighing in at just over 4 oz. Most of the weight was found in the coil assembly. Wanna understand the machine- it's function, how to better your existing machines, requirements for a perfectly versatile machine?... participate in one of our seminars or buy our book: "TATTOO MACHINES & THEIR SECRETS" .

Seminars

SEMINARS ON THE ELECTROMAGNETIC TATTOO MACHINE. REQUIREMENTS: - MINIMUM 15 PEOPLE PER SEMINAR, PROFESSIONAL ARTISTS ONLY - ARTISTS WHO WORK IN STUDIOS. The Godoy Machines tattoo machine seminar provides a complete dissection of the electromagnetic tattoo machine. Detailed descriptions of the scope of the electromagnetic tattoo machine. Including material, properties and function, manufacturing, assembly, insulation, magnetic field, capacitors, capacitance, polarity, wire - gauges, layers turns...everything a professional tattoo artist needs to know - including the tattoo machine's function as applied to technique. This is a 6 - 9 hour class, depending on the number of participants. Sometimes the class can be divided over 2 days. This is the most thorough and complete seminar offered anywhere. We charge 300 dollars or Euros per person. This covers our cost to travel and accommodation - wether we travel to Europe or any other continent. This 300 dollar (or Euro) cost pays for material and tools which the class will use to repair their machines - taps, dyes, hole punches, Dremmel, files, heat shrink, capacitor(s), screws, binding posts, contact screws etc. This price also pays the shipping costs to send the tools and materials. The 300 dollar (or Euro) charge also absorbs the cost of paying the organizer a percentage to help with the expense of the rented hall. We cannot offer "FREE" seminars due to these costs. FREE seminars at any convention or events will not be considered.
