Tune That Coil Machine Into a Colour Packing Beast! Pro Tuning Guide! In this video we take out that old tattoo coil machine, give it a good clean and tune it to pack colour and perform just as good as any brand new machine!
Many new artists in the tattoo industry tend to avoid coil machines which is a shame because they're so much fun to use. A well tuned coil machine should be part of any tattooist's equipment in the studio.
The tattoo machine used in this video is a Mickey Sharpz coil machine. The tattoo needle used in this tuning guide is an 11CM, which are great all round needles for tattooing. If you follow this tuning guide you will hopefully be the owner of a colour packing beast of a coil machine!

You literally have the best tutorials. So simple to understand!

@SID_666_ 6 месяцев назад

Thanks for this video, has helped me understand packing setup better.

@user-jt7cs5tp8z 6 месяцев назад

Thank you brah outstanding desperatley needed that knowledge!!! Thank you again keep it up

@MrJeffro1968 Год назад

As far as your rubber bands go, here in Australia at a lot of stationary stores we can get different sizes of rubber bands and the ideal bands are a No.12 for a single wrap band. If you can get them in the UK then alls good but I can get boxes of a couple of hundred in a box for about $6AUD

@JonoSmithTattoo Год назад

Yes just use what seems to comfortably hold the needle back in its place without any extra stress on the machine. I wouldn't worry too much about actual specifics of the sizes of bands. Thanks for watching!

How we miss you brother 😢R.I.P

1. Force is not dictated by voltage, it's dictated by the springs, both back and front. 2. That machine sounds like crap cuz youre running it at 14+ volts....there isn't a machine out there that sounds good at 14+ 3. CPS is only one aspect of a machine, duty cycle will tell you how long the needle is in the skin, and therefore whether or not the needle will catch the skin. 4. The contact between the armature bar and the front coil is irrelevant....what is relevant is the material the armature bar is made from, not how clean it is. The coils magnetize and pull the armature bar down, breaking contact the the "contact screw", forcing the back spring to pull it back up, "contacting" the contact screw again to start the cycle again. There is so much wrong with this video, I can't even mention it here, because I just don't have the time. I guess it serves the purpose of getting you views, and subscribers, because good tuning advice is hard to come by, and therefore easy to fool people with, but this is not good machine tuning advice, at all. You need more practice. Get your hands on some Machine Gun Magazines and get studying bro.

@tubezeronine Год назад

Right tuned with DC 44% and Voltagem at 14V 😂 must be a joke 🤦

@JozefSpotify Год назад

@@tubezeronineidk, Dekalcomanu using 20V or maybe little more and everything running perfect

@ciscokid1223 10 месяцев назад

He knows that the info is wrong. The views is all that matters. He has good equipment and his heart is in the right place trying to educate people but you're right he needs to really do his homework and then teach. Good comment.

@hardcorejessixxx1 Год назад

14 volts seems kinda high no? I was always told to tweek em down so they run between 4 to 6v and feel from there.

@JonoSmithTattoo Год назад

It really does depend on the power of the coils. Some machines hit harder than than others. Thanks for watching!

@hardcorejessixxx1 Год назад

My guess was you had a longer stroke length so you needed the extra juice to get your machine to start but yeah for sure.

@wadenvern Год назад

5% higher duty cycle will catch the needle in the skin

@wadenvern Год назад

@@hardcorejessixxx1 You are correct Jessi_lee. Never run a machine at 14 volts. You are also correct when you say between 4-6, although I have quite a few machines that run higher from 7-8. 8 being at the higher end of the voltage scale.

@ivanmendoza8457 Год назад

Its gonna heat up more wraps and higher uf cap will cause your machine to heat up after 8 volts I have a color packer by seth ciferri that runs on 6 volts and then a color packer for black work made by no iron tattoo and it runs optimum at 9 volts it even has a fan thus the extra juice its made to pack in up to a 49 mag for hours doing black work or large scale color and the fan keeps it from fetting hot so such high voltage seems really alot sounds like he might need more tension in the back spring

@PatLoveridge Год назад

Hi my friend, thank you so much for all your info videos, I have learnt so much. I have gone from stick and poke to now machine tattooing myself, and all the tips I have got from you. I do hope your health is getting better and you still keep doing your videos in the future. I wish you could see how far I have come from hand poke to Dragonhawk, yes I know still doing it on the cheap lol. Just one question..... What do you think of colour packing with like a 11RS Shader? That's all I have to play with at the moment to finish off some of my line tattoos on me. Keep doing what you do my friend :)

@JonoSmithTattoo Год назад

Thank you! Im glad the channel has helped you out. My advice is to use what you have. 11Rs will do the job. Thank you for your support.

@sushinktattoo1366 11 дней назад

Help me out here. I got my vlad blad whip shader tuned 95cps unloaded/75 loaded. Hard hit. Got soft hitting coil tuned 110cps/ 100 unloaded as packer. Is that right ?

@bradmoules5389 Год назад

Awesome! Thanks Jono...

@fujitattooz5127 Год назад

Thank you Jono, using pens and neo tats but loyal to the coil. love yer videos thanks again :)

@JonoSmithTattoo Год назад

Thank you so much! You'll get a shout out on the next upload.

@konstantinosk1198 Год назад

Hi Sir, thank you for this video. I would like to ask you about capacitors. what Capacitance how many uf should someone use for Shading and what for Color Packing? Thank you again all your videos are awesome.

@ilyakucherov1064 Год назад

hey Jono- what are you using for cleaning the machine?

@hacedms Год назад

Thanks for the video, do you ever use spring tension gauge? I don't see many people talk about it.

@JonoSmithTattoo Год назад

To be honest I've never used a tension gauge but they would be a huge help for that extra level of refinement. Thanks for watching!

@CoTheme303 Год назад

I use a digital scale and it definitely helps to fine tune. Thanks Jono, your videos are great.

@hacedms Год назад

@@CoTheme303 what are you figures for lining, shading and packing?

@JonoSmithTattoo Год назад

130-135 lining, 90-100 shading around 90 packing. There's actually a chart for these in the video. Feel free to screenshot it. Good luck with it!

@MrJeffro1968 Год назад

Also Jonno can you answer a quick question for me? When I clean my armature bar & coil posts I use a very fine grit (1800-2000) wet & dry but I only use it dry to clean my machines, have you ever tried it or know of anyone who does?

@JonoSmithTattoo Год назад

I only use Brasso to clean my armature bars. I find it gives really good results.

@nielfoster376 Год назад

Thanks jono

@JonoSmithTattoo Год назад

Thanks for watching!!

@MrGazza666 Год назад

im slightly confused Jono you havent mentioned Duty figure etc power pack showed 44 % is that right thanks

@JonoSmithTattoo Год назад

The duty is fully covered in the video i did years ago which is mentioned in the beginning of this one. 44% is acceptable though 50% is perfect.

@JonoSmithTattoo Год назад

Duty is quite a big subject to cover (which I've done in a previous video) and show you how to set it. Basically you're aiming for 50% but 5% either side of this will be fine.

@paulperrin2152 Год назад

What gauge springs

@JonoSmithTattoo Год назад

I'm pretty sure this setup is .22 back and .18 front but ill double check for you.

@paulperrin2152 Год назад

@@JonoSmithTattoo thank you

@wadenvern Год назад

@@JonoSmithTattoo 22 guage back spring is waaaay to thick for a color packer or shader. You want the back spring thinner so the pull force back up is slower, slowing the machine down. The voltage has nothing to do with the speed. A properly tuned machine should not change much in duty or speed when raising or lowering the machines voltage.

@ericwalker8553 Год назад

This was kind of garbage, I didn’t learn anything from it. You failed to explain anything that you did to make that into a packer. There’s all sort of things you could’ve covered other than cleaning a machine like the gauge of your springs, angle of deflection, capacitors, duty, or the position of the contact screw to the front coil core. All very vital information to consider when tuning a machine. All you did was clean it & unwind the contact screw a tad, very disappointing as I thought I was gonna learn something…..anything.
