Workhorse Irons x Sidnaw Company Tattoo Machine Tool Roll!
After many years of discussion, some back and forth, and a few prototypes, our Tattoo Machine Tool Roll is here and we couldn't be happier with the way they turned out!
Made locally by our friends at Sidnaw Company (formerly Mercy Supply), these Tool Rolls are made for use with the tools most artists use to maintain their tattoo machines. Designed for organization, versatility, and built for durability. Inside there are multiple slots and a large gusseted pocket with an internal zippered front, plus two smaller button pockets for small parts and hardware. The body is made with 20oz waxed canvas.
Specs:
Dimensions when closed: 11 x 6.5 x 2in
20oz USA 100% Cotton Waxed Canvas
USA Harness Leather
Steel Buckles
Hand Hammered Copper Rivets
USA YKK Zipper
Available With or Without Tools - if ordered with Tools the roll includes the following:
Armature Bar Fixture
Alignment Tool
Wiss Spring Snips
Wurth Premium Spring Punch
Spring Stock ( 6 feet of 3/4" and 6 feet of 1/2")
Hex and Torx Key Set (9/64 Allen Key, 5/64 Allen Key, T25 Torx Key, T20 Torx Key, T15 Torx Key)
Care:
Our waxed canvas is simply a duck canvas with wax-impregnated cotton yarns. This results in a fabric that’s as strong as duck canvas with an added layer of protection against water, wind and agitation.
Waxed canvas bags and garments can be used for months (even years) without requiring care. When caring for waxed canvas, avoid machine washing and submerging in water. Spot cleaning or hosing off the product is recommended. Hang dry only. Re-wax after prolonged use with an all-natural fabric wax to maintain weather resistance.
Handmade in Michigan.

Dan Kubin Distressed Black V3R Sidewinder
Regular price$805.00 USDSale price$755.00 USD
Dan Kubin V3R Sidewinder
"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. 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:
Black Oxide Brass Frame with Custom Distressed Finish(*Finish may vary)
Blackened Parts and Motor Cap
DK Thumbscrew, new Armature Bar, and updated Stroke Wheel for improved performance
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)
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
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.
