Dan Kubin X Adam Ciferri Ghost Dog Revival Hybrid

"Since working with Workhorse Irons, I have been given the opportunity to remaster my Revival machine, but being able to merge it into the platform of Adam Ciferri’s Ghostdog.

Thanks - Dan.

Machine Specs:

• CNC Iron Frame designed in collaboration by Dan Kubin and Adam Ciferri
• Hinge / Compression machine functionality eliminating any rear spring issues or breakage
• Machine comes setup for use as a slow or medium speed Liner or a quick shader. To easily change to a slow and punchy color packer, simply remove the backer spring under the front spring.
• Tuned for all-day, every-day street shop and/or custom tattooing
•  Medium speed with enough hit to push 3's to 14's no problem
• Runs 125-130 Hz @ 6 Volts Unloaded, crank up to 9-10 Volts for large groupings
• CNC Cut Iron with the highest precision and care for superior conductivity
• Mini-Size frame with Custom AC x DK 1" Keg Coil for a larger range and less amperage
• Custom 24k Gold Plated Finish
• Deluxe DK 24k Gold Plated Hardware and Stainless Spring
• Weighs 6 oz
• MADE IN THE USA

Machine Setup:

• Standard Needle on Bar: standard coil machine set up. Work well with our Thick Rubber Bands and Dan's Perfect Nipples, but also work with standard nipples/grommets.
• Cartridges: possible, but not highly recommended.

• Wider springs for more durability.
• Large, easy to turn, hardened steel stroke wheel. Pre-set stroke range and middle timing mark to prevent the machine from getting too far out of tune when experimenting.
• Hardened alloy steel impact pin. Positioned towards the rear of the frame to help with noise
• Large cam with precise timing mark. Allows for easier, and more precise impact alignment checks
• Smooth, easy clamping tube vice.
• Forward weight distribution for better ergonomics.
• Beautiful brass armature bar, perfectly balanced for a strong, confident, and  consistent hit.  
• O-ring groove in the bar allows for a more silent option (though will reduce performance as well)
• Reliable Mabuchi motor. -because they run forever without losing consistency. 

• Standard (brass frame construction): 6oz
• Featherweight  (7075 aluminum frame): 4.4 oz

Legacy Edition Dan Kubin V3R Sidewinder

*This is a special run of Sidewinders built with the original V3R Armature Bar for an even heavier hit and slightly different feel from the current version V3R.

"Special Legacy Edition Sidewinder with OG V3R Armature Bar and Springs on the newer updated frame with DK Thumbscrew included! These Legacy machines are a little quieter and geared more towards being effortless with a stronger hit off the tip. These Legacy machines are intended for experienced tattooers, their happy place is for 7-14 Liners.

Also, please note the rubber band position is another simple tuning element. For lower volt operations, or harder hit, position the band pointing slightly up. This will reduce return spring tension thus making it operate better at slower speeds and decreasing the amount of give. Bonus is less strain on the rubber band.

These updates are in addition to the 2019 updated version which still has the same dependable and proven geometry as the original v3, but now revisited and remastered with subtle differences to improve overall performance. This is the most user friendly Sidewinder yet. The differences, others than aesthetics, is the numbered stroke wheel, an impact screw timing mark on the cam and frame (like the v5-6). Additionally, I did a new spring loaded vice lock setup that effortlessly clamps down your tube. The stroke wheel is indexed in 10 positions, and numbered accordingly." 

Thanks for looking - Dan.

Machine Specs:

• Antique Nickel Plated Brass Frame (*Finish may vary)
  
• Black DK Thumbscrew and Blackened Brass OG Armature Bar
• The renowned rotary liner.  Effortlessly sink any size line by just grazing the skin.
• The motor is the same as the  V2-V4 Sidewinder, which has proven the test of time.  It has been a favorite of the long time Sidewinder collectors.
• Vice-Lock that easily tightens on nearly any tube
• Great for all varieties of Line Work or as a Fast Shader/Packer
  
• Timing mark on the cam and frame for setting the impact screw. (Just like the V5 and V6) **Special note, Legacy Edition machine timing marks are slightly off due to using the OG armature on the newer frames. Down stroke timing mark should sit just outside the timing mark on the high side. If you go much lower you will know as you will make contact with the top of the frame with the armature.
  

• Numbered stroke dial so you can easily play with the stroke without fear of losing that sweet spot.  You can’t make it too long or too short. Smaller number setting great for small groupings, large numbers large groupings. Machines are tuned and shipped on the 5 setting, some don't ever adjust this, some do, user preference.
  

Machine Setup:

• Standard Needle on Bar: wrap a thick rubber band around the motor cap and across the front of the machine to add needle bar tension. It is recommended that you use Thick Rubber Bands and Dan's Perfect Nipples.
  
• Cartridges: wrap a rubber band around the motor cap and over the top of the armature bar to counteract the cartridge's upward tension. Thick or standard rubber bands both work, it will just depend on the tension of the cartridge membrane or band to determine with rubber band provides the proper counter resistance.
  

*Completely black oxided.  *please note that the brass will peak though over time where it sees heavy wear, adding to its character.

"Now with an updated weighted impact screw! I found that it helps with the stability of the hit, and improved overall performance. Also, please note the rubber band position is another simple tuning element. For lower volt operations, or harder hit, position the band pointing slightly up. This will reduce return spring tension thus making it operate better at slower speeds and decreasing the amount of give. Bonus is less strain on the rubber band.

Previous updates to the V3R include adding the coveted DK thumbscrew, moving the impact screw (the most crucial and misunderstood tuning element) to the front end of the armature bar and added a hardened steel impact pin so the machine will be easier to reset, and will hold its tune much longer. I also used a few tricks from the V7 to reduce spitting and make it hit a bit more rigid on the low end and added the backer springs as well to prevent spring breakage.

These updates are in addition to the 2019 updated version which still has the same dependable and proven geometry as the original v3, but now revisited and remastered with subtle differences to improve overall performance.
