I was stoked when I opened the box and unveiled this little pen, and some extra o-rings!

Pretty happy with the adjustable grip, and how precise the throw can be. Easy to switch from lining to shading. Slaps around 7.0-7.5 and maybe be even 8

I would listen to the directions it comes with: do not run it over 8.5, depending on your power supply.

I've been tattooing for about 4 years and haven't spent and incredibly amount on machines and so far this machine in particular has made a good impression.

I will say, however, the RCA that it comes with is OK. I'm probably going to buy a cord that is a little heavier, but that's just my personal taste!

Will probably update in the future.

I've been using my CNC pens for about a year now when I bought my first one I imediately bought a second one shortly after and I just placed an order this week for a third!!! They are just so short and stable and they really pack they can do anything I need just by adjusting the voltage on my power supply I really love how versatile these machines are for me this is the best direct drive pen I've ever used and I have $700 tattoo machines in my toolbox. I recently broke the push bar on my machine and messaged CNC and they immediately sent me a brand new push bar in the mail!! I brag on these machines all the time to my friends in the tattoo world just because this is not a big brand do not look down on it because it's not always about a big brand it's about the person using the product also this machine will not make you Picasso overnight but if you know how to use the machine it will help you flawlessly.

The media could not be loaded. Ok let me just say this is a very early review, first day out of the box this machine felt like quality. Used it for one full tattoo and I absolutely love it. The quality of the build and the strength of the motor is comparable to the Cheyenne sol. I am a professional and I dabble in cheap machines but this is the best cheap machine I've ever used. I will do a later review but the tattoo I posted is the one I did with this machine. scouts honor

After a few days and several large full day sessions I am in love with this machine, it actually reminds me of the professional pen rotary brand STYLUS more than the hawk pen but for the price you can't beat it. I bought 2. Comes with rca and a cheapo tester cartridge. The only thing I would say is watch where the motor twists into the pen. It can vibrate loose. Also I would immediately buy super lube to keep the motor running smooth. They do not come very lubricated.. the king tut is my most recent tattoo done with this machine

Great machine

I have had the opportunity to use this machine on a couple 3-4 hour sessions and it performs like a champ.
