    Hey the names Apes, im 21 and living in london.

    Ive always loved tattoos and the lifestyle that goes with it, sadly because of cost I couldunt go and spend months/years learning how to tattoo.

    Im a Montesorri Teacher, also I teach Pianno, play bass for a (used to be) all girl band. Suffering Silence (http://www.myspace.com/sufferingsilence) I design full body graphics for cars (at http://www.aceimageuk.com) and im into the modifying scene also engrave engine covers…

    My fav art has to be ancient japanese and art nuveau. Right now im waiting to go pick up a nice huge massive KIT! im not going to tattoo anyone for a good ol’ while but i got some guinnea pigs lined up for when that time come yo!

    first off welcome to the forum,

    it sounds like you know what you got in mind, but its a shame you have not spent more time reading through either this forum or other tattoo forums. that way you would know what to buy and what to avoid

    let me just say good luck with whatever you decide to buy but rember what rhymes with kit…….. SHIT !

    just my 0.02 worth

    Just a light coil machine one liner one shader, nothing fancy looking…. I guess I got my flahy guitar theory on tat machines. Flashy guitars don’t sound as good as standard looking ones…

    but if you can recomend anything That would be brill… I don’t want to be mugged off. all my other art equipment is high standard and I don’t want to slip on something that can be on skin for life. (not that im rushing to tattoo people… just pigs for now :D)

    oh the place that sells these things are a company in croydon, im taking a friend with me who tattoos in NW london, for back up ๐Ÿ™‚

    cheers again.

    i used to use a company in croydon for my starbrite inks, caps, needles etc…. it might be the same place..

    all i will say is if you have an artist from a shop with you then they should be able to point you in the right direction, but remember that good isnt cheap and cheap isnt good,
    keep us updated on what ya get ๐Ÿ˜‰
