A few words From Joshua about this machine:
This is a very powerful and capable machine. It has real nice stroke characteristics, nice and snappy with the perfect amount of bog. The best machine if you're wanting to use one machine for lining, shading, or both. Designed for use with cartridges but is equally effective running needle and tube setup. It has a nice snappy powerful stroke that will drop in nice single pass lines with large or small groupings. As a shader, turn the voltage down to slow the speed and still have that punch to drop in solid color or blend with very low trauma.

A few words from Joshua about this machine:
The time is finally here to introduce my new direct drive project that I’ve been developing with @workhorseirons . I’d like to introduce the 2 Stroke. I called it the 2 Stroke because it has the unique ability among direct drives as having two very unique and different stroke characteristics in one machine. When the machine is hooked up with the positive to the top binding post the 2 Stroke is a killer, snappy super capable long stroke direct drive. Flip the clip cord so the positive is on bottom, and it changes the stroke completely. The 2 Stroke has a torsional swing arm in the cam that reacts to the resistance of the skin. On the “give” setting the needles hit the skin softer and less abrasive but the best part is that unlike typical “give” mechanisms the give on the 2 Stroke doesn’t control needle depth. The needles will hit the skin with less force but still penetrate the skin the same depth as if no give was used. This ensures that all ink is deposited in the depth of retention, needle depth is more predictable, and tattoos heal more solid on all the different types of skin.

A few words from Joshua about this machine:
This machine is designed, built and tuned to run like a coil machine. The tuning is in the frame geometry and setup so there's no knobs or settings to fall out of adjustment. Ready to tattoo out of the box. Light, but not too light. Very punchy and snappy on the tip of the stroke and backs off slightly in the middle of the stroke. Great for sculpting fine finesse lines ran off the needle tips and also great for burying a large grouping liner and pulling a solid single pass line quickly.

A few words from Joshua about this machine: 
Super smooth and consistent machine. Powerful through the whole stroke but designed to back off slightly in the middle and back end of the stroke to prevent overworking the skin. Super versatile, great for color saturation, blending, and even black and gray. Plenty of stroke to hang out for nice traditional whips or back it up and increase the voltage for smooth saturation. Has a penetrating stroke down to 4 volts which is great for stippling.

Some words from Bowers on why he made these clip cords:

A couple years ago I designed this clip cord and built one for myself. The design came from being frustrated with the options that were on the market. When I designed these clip cords I had a list of demands:
-This cord HAD to be repairable, quickly and easily.
-lightweight
-no-stick, flexible cord
-brass or copper leads
Every part of the clip cord end can be replaced or repaired quickly and easily. Even comes with the parts and tools to do it! You will not be left struggling with a short in your cord, no backup and rummaging around looking for your best broken cord to finish or do the tattoo. The cord is a matte nonstick material that glides smoothly along surfaces, it is NOT a 5 lb clip cord you’re hooking up to 3 oz. machine, the brass leads will not groove your binding posts nearly as fast as the standard steel leads found on most clip cords. I’m excited about this new product and to able to finally share it with all of you.

Joshua Bowers High-Jack

The High-Jack attaches to your workstation magnetically and plugs in to the "machine" port on your power supply effectively moving your clip cord jack 5 feet into the air. This is the ideal position for your clip cord to hang from to keep it off the floor and free from rubbing, tugging, and snagging as you work.

• No more rolling over your cord with your chair
• Keep your cord off the floor
• Reduces the weight hanging off the back of the machine
• Reduces tugs and snags as you tattoo
• Extends the life of your clipcord

A few words from Joshua about The High-Jack:

"The High-Jack is a product I developed to make my clipcord drape and move more easily. The High-Jack magnetically attaches to your work station and plugs in to the Machine port on your power supply. Your clip cord then plugs in to the High-Jack, effectively lifting the clipcord jack 5 feet in to the air. This allows the cord to drape naturally from above you, doesn’t rub on the floor, doesn’t snag across your lap and it takes weight off of the back of the machine easing hand fatigue greatly.

The High-Jack Switch has all the great features of the basic High-Jack with the great new feature of having a switch box at the end to be able to toggle back and forth between two cords. This is a great feature for people using multiple cord types or just want two cords connected so they don’t have to switch cords back and forth. The toggle move from side to side selecting which cord is powered with off in the middle, so you can run on constant and turn your machine off at the High-Jack.

I have been using this product for over a year now, along with the rest of my shop. We were originally just testing them out but I speak for me and the rest of the shop when I say that we can’t imagine tattooing without them now."
