I finally decided to try one, so I got myself a Swash Gen7. I kinda like it but have a couple of questions if anyone is familiar...I'm only using it for color+shading, not lining.
1. I haven't figured out the trick to setting needle depth. Seems I need to check it while its running, make any adjustments, check while its running, make any adjustments... kind of annoying.
2. Used it on 3 tattoos with no problems, then had trouble with the needles spitting like crazy and couldn't get it to stop. I figured it must be the grommet (which seems to fit super tight) so I switched to a looser fitting nipple... still no luck. Finally just switched back to my coils to finish the tattoo. Any thoughts on this? It worked fine before this one and I always used 9mags, so the set up was exactly the same each time. :/
BY THE WAY -- I'm asking for advice here, not opinions...so all you anti-rotary nuts can go complain on your own thread!
thanks!!
