Here are a few words from Seth on this new machine:

This is a frame style I’ve been wanting to do for a long time, and finally got around to making it happen. Based almost entirely on an English doorbell I found at a flea market, with exact geometry, it hits HARD and can push any liner grouping on very low voltage and amps. PLUS I added in a new vise lock mechanism that holds any  tubes.

The response to these new doorbell liners has been overwhelming and exciting. It’s been a long time since I’ve designed and built a machine that gets me this hyped!

I think I’ve cracked the code on this one, my friends. Compact and sturdy, built to last a lifetime.

A few words from Adam on his history with this machine:
"In 1996 I started making machines known as "Bulldogs" with Mike Malone, as the previous builder of this classic machine had ceased making them, and there was a void to be filled. The idea for this was mine, and I ran it by Mike. He had asked me to build shaders for him to re-sell, as he was happy building liners and didn't feel much of an affinity for building shaders.

So, we embarked on our plan to start re-making the shader known as "the bulldog" and it was to be a partnership. Our partnership, like so many, had some snags, and in our haste to get the project rolling, we never nailed down some key details of the partnership. Predictably, we both made some serious mistakes, both professionally, and privately, and these mistakes ultimately led to some interesting interpretations and speculations of what my role was in making this machine.

I do not claim to own anything surrounding this machine but my work and my word.
I have made this machine, continually for nearly 20 years, and intend to continue making this machine for as long as this demand dictates.

Thank you, Workhorse Irons, for making this project happen, thank you Mike Malone for the opportunity to have a part in the lineage of this machine, and thank you, Fellow Tattooers, who buy my machines and allow me to do what I love."

Here are a few words from Seth on the evolution of his "Classic":

In 2003, when BJ and I founded Workhorse Irons, we each had one model available! The frame style I chose was based on what we've come to know as the Coleman style frame, popularized by Paul Rogers, and many who came after, recognizing the versatility and functionality of it's geometry. With a few simple adjustments, just about any type of liner or shader can be set up with relative ease. We called it the Classic, in acknowledgment of it's well-established lineage.
As thousands of the "Classic" liners and shaders made their way into the hands of tattooers; beginning, established, and everywhere in between, we've been given incredible amounts of feedback about what you have come to desire in an everyday workhorse. Over the years, we've employed a handful of different materials for these machines, mostly cast iron, with some limited editions in brass, aluminum, 3 piece "pre-fab" frames in steel, and eventually CNC machined blocks of "10-00" iron.
Rather than aiming to produce a machine that adheres to the aesthetic and expectations of old-school tattooing, this time we've addressed numerous shortcomings of the average "iron", and have designed a pair of machines with the intent of making them a pleasure to use. Clipcord position and simple vise operation became priorities. If the clipcord can't maintain a solid connection while you work, then your job becomes tedious and annoying. If your vise can't hold any tube, or requires the use of extra tools to get them in and out of the machine, then you're wasting valuable time and energy that could be spent making money.
We wanted to create a tool that's lightweight and balanced, yet rigid and strong enough to stay tuned. With an extra-deep pocket for an extra-thick steel yoke, and a drop vise, we've worked around the issue of frame height dictating which tubes are long enough to accommodate standard length needles, and we've placed enough ferrous mass under your magnets to keep them fired up on low voltage, hitting as hard as you want, all day.
Aluminum frames tend to wear at the connections, so we've added a steel insert for long-lasting and dependable clipcord contact. (again, that connection is so important!) To ensure proper alignment, we've added a recessed channel in the spring shelf, and a mated steel cover that sits flush with the front edge, as well as the top.
These aren't tricks, but deliberate updates, each made with the tattooer in mind. The Modern Classic is designed for comfort and dependability, and is suitable for use with virtually any grouping. Start off on low voltage, then dial up as you see fit to get the saturation you're after, at the hand-speed you choose.
-Seth C.

Ne plus jamais repasser à la rotative

Très contente de la coil en elle même, fonctionne comme sur des roulettes, paraît très solide, sature bien, l'efficacité et la rapidité n'a rien à voir avec une rotative. J'aurais préféré commencer par là !
