Braze-Up "Bulldog" Big Mag - Gold/Gold - MARK SENDER

*THIS TATTOO MACHINE IS AVAILABLE TO PROFESSIONAL TATTOOERS ONLY!

The Bulldog is such a classic and reliable shape. This Bulldog side plate has been brazed to Sender's new All Rounder base with the addition of a double, twisted bronze support for added rigidity.

Is has been set up as a solid, big mag shader with a heavy hit and smooth, but relentless, drive for keeping those big mags working in the skin. This has been achieved by using big, 3/8”x 8wrap coils, a Sprague 150D capacitor and long springs. The machine has an O-ring added to the front spring to distribute the power evenly through the stroke to keep it smooth and stop it getting “choppy” under load. It should happily run most mags over 15mg (within reason) up to about 50mg. It will also run as a standard shader/packer for all you normal groupings.
The machine features a super cool gold and turquoise colour scheme and Sender's super trusty guillotine vice for clamping on ALL your tubes, steel and disposable.

*Please note that all of my machines that have an O-ring fitted are tuned prior to adding the O-ring and it has been added as a tool to achieve a certain quality that is impossible to achieve otherwise. If you choose to remove to O-ring please do so with the knowledge that it WILL NOT run as I have described above and you WILL have to tune it to account for the change you’ve made. If, however, your O-ring breaks or goes missing there is a spare provided in a small bag with your spare springs.

*please keep in mind that the speeds and voltages quoted above will vary for each machine and each user, depending on their setup. These descriptions are intended to be used as a guide to help you choose which machine is right for you. All testing was done using Sender's "perfect rubber bands", available here. Using different rubber bands will yield different results.
