B & G Irons? any one have any expierence"

I have been looking into these machines on kingpin supply, they look pretty nice...but can anyone vouch for them? how do they stack up agaisnt, mickey sharpz, or lets say... pulse machines?

Just being serious regarding your question: Are you asking because you are a tattoo artist and want to know more about those machines, or simply because your search for "good tattoo machines" popped in google with some names such Sharpz and Pulse and you want to see if a real pro opinion is a hint to purchase your first machines? just get ready for some feedback, it's just a matter of time.

you're an idiot, I have been tattooing for a while, it was a simple question, has anyone used them and would you reccomend them....nothing else should make a difference to you.

hey Bud, no need for insults, but apparently you are not very familiar with the amount of people coming to this site to get some feedback about machines to start scratching upon the first direction. You have a nice year as well. What shop do you work for?

I've also seen them, and have looked into them. Unfortunately, I haven't come across too much info on them.. If you do business with Kingpin, then obviously you know what your doing since they don't just sell to anyone! I know, for a fact, the Danny Knight machines and the Tom Hlavaty are some pretty wicked nice machines to work with since I have a couple of their machnes. If you ever watch Miami Ink, you can see the crew tattooing with some of these machines from time to time, so if you are planning to make a purchase of a B & G Iron, please let me know what you think. By the way, what are you using right now?

they're all (atleast most of them, from what i can see) two-piece welded frames or cast iron.. from what i know a one-piece bent frame is better for guiding the current through the frame, and the weight of the yoke is also of importance in relation to the coil-core for optimal magnetism.. some don't have a yoke and use the frame for this purpose (so the weight is off).. check out danny fowlers website, he has lots of good info on what (and why) is best for a good harmony in all parts of the machine.. (www.atimemachine.com in the articles section) some people don't like his machines because there is too much adjustment possible, but i think this will only make you're machine more you. but it's not for the beginner, unless maybe there is somebody who can adjust it for you.. i just bought the flatline liner, and am very happy with it..

actually they're one piece cast bronze frames. they're highly cunductive frames. mine run at a less than a third of an amp and between 5 and 9 volts (liner/shader) they are great machines for my style of tattooing, but i'm sure some would not agree as all artists tattoo differently ( for example, i hate bent frames, and can't stand danny fowler machines, but the fellow above likes them) and have different preferences. they are strong punchy machines, and they run a little slower which is how i like it. so for me i use them every day. hope this helps

Where does conductivity mater on the frame besides the spring deck? All other electrical connections are isolated from the frame.
