Description
We are proud to introduce the 3rd Generation Inkstar Apprentice Tattoo Kit with Convention Carrying Case and Radiant Color 7 color ink set, professional ink. The crowning glory of our new 3rd Generation Inkstar tattoo machines is the huge reduction in operating voltage requirements. Compared to other tattoo machines in the same price range, 3rd Gen Inkstar’s require about 2-3 volts less to engage and run. Every part of this package from the type of machines to the type of tubes is the brain child of a team of experienced industry veterans. In addition to everything that comes with this package, we include the Hildbrandt Tattoo Training DVD, the Tattoo Crash Course 101 Guide and the professionally produced Holy Flash 6000 tattoo flash design CD to get you started. This is an excellent learning platform that will give you all the essential items you need to begin a journey of learning and discovery in the tattooing world! There is a 6 month warranty that covers all hardware for these kits, consumables are not covered. Check out great tattoos done by artists using Inkstar and Hildbrandt tattoo equipment!
Our 3rd Generation Inkstar tattoo machines feature standardized AWG 24 gauge wire, the coils are wound tight and compact allowing for a maximally efficient magnetic field. The 3rd Generation Inkstar’s can engage at as low as 5.6 Volts (with proper tuning) and can run optimally at as low as 6.3 Volts. Comparatively, machines of a similar price class tend to engage at 7 to 8 volts and won’t run optimally until 8 to even 11 volts.
The springs and coils for all of the 3rd generation Inksar’s are custom designed specifically for their liner or shader designation. The liners use a short and thin front spring and a set of 8 wrap tightly wound compact coils with 47uf 50V capacitor that allows for speed and accuracy. The shaders utilize a long and wide front spring and 10 wrap tightly wound compact coils with 47uf 50V capacitor that allows for a softer and slower machine suited for shading and coloring. The coil cores are made of solid blackened iron and each coil assembly are wrapped in a textured design heat insulating rubber sheath.
Our goal to reduce the operating voltage combined with quality parts and engineering design have produced an excellent budget friendly machine that can perform near to high performance machines. Okay, so it won’t outperform a $400 Aaron Cain, however, when performing against other machines in the same price class, our 3rd Generation Inkstar’s will blow them out of the water.
WARNING: This kit contains items that can be used to tattoo human skin. This setup is designed for people to learn how to tattoo by practising on mediums like practice skin, pigs skin and thick skinned fruits. Human skin is NOT a practising medium and tattoos are PERMANENT, so if you do not have any experience or qualifications to do skin work, DO NOT use the items in this kit to perform a tattoo. If you are serious about becoming a professional tattoo artist, a proper apprenticeship with a professional tattoo studio is the time honoured way of becoming one. This kit will not make you a professional tattoo artist overnight but it will give you the tools you need to learn and practice to become one.

So far so good.. I started out using some machine i bought from Ebay didnt work out so well and decided to give this a try . So far I’ve used it 4 times and have loved the quick working time. I haven’t done alot but its a good start

Big disspointment for a 80 dollar kit when I could have gotten something else for way less. This kit DOES NOT come with enough tips for the needles it comes with. All of the bristles on the tips brush came off after the first use. The ink set do not look as big as they do in the picture, the bottles are only 1/2oz! My guns did not come pretuned and it took me almost an hour to get them to run, when I called customer service they just sent me a link to a page that showed me how to do it and even then it was not simple, they did not go over it on the phone with me nor did they seem to care that I could not get the thing to work. When I finally got things going, everything appears to be working okay.

Seems like a decent setup and the book included was okay. Well worth the price, though the machine’s aren’t professional enough for me to tattoo without some upgrading like the one piece springs. I think they did this to make it so the machine can run lower voltage. But everything worked out the box, and you can get practicing instantly on the practice skin provided. Plus, you can tear apart one or two machines to get a good understanding of the coil system.
