TATTOO's and tattoo art
i recently (today) gave myself a tattoo (the wonders of valium...) anyway i did it with some black ink and a sewing needle and put the black ink on my skin and then stabed my skin with the needle in the desired pattern i had no idea if this would work but i was crusing on valium like i said and so i didn't even care well app it looks like it worked i'm going to wait a few days to see if it stays or if it washes out but i was wondering about this techince and so i looked up home tattooing and i found this Make a Tattoo Gun I've personally used this so I know it works... Things you'll need: * bic pen (this is your tube that houses the needle) * 4 or 5" section of guitar string ,second one from the smallest. ( this is your needle) * tooth brush ( this gets bent like a "7" and joins the pen to the motor) * an eraser from a pencil (this joins the shaft of the motor to the needle/guitar string) * small battery operated motor (from a "walkman" or a hand held fan) * some tape (to join everything together) Putting the pieces together: 1. Take the guitar string and bend a little bit of the end down or up. 2. Take out the ink tube of the pen, and cut it to about a 3 or 4" length, now file down the brass tip of the pen to get the ball out, make the hole big enough to allow passage of the needle. 3. Insert the needle into the pen. 4. Now take the tooth brush and cut off the bristles making it about 4" long. Heat it up in the middle with a lighter and bend it in to a "7" and hold in place untill stiff. 5. Join/tape the pen needle assembly to the tooth brush. 6. Now take the eraser from the pencil and shove it onto the shaft of the motor, try to get it as dead center as possible. Join the pen/needle/tooth brush to the motor/eraser assembly, tape the brush to the motor. 7. Take the bent part of the needle/guitar stirng and stick it into the eraser, IMPORTANT- the needle must be purposely OFF CENTER. 8. Now all that is left to do is find a power source, I used the plug-in adapter frrom a cd player. i guess you could hook up some batteries to a switch and then to the contacts of the motor. ... i think next time i feel like giving myself a tattoo i'll do it this was PLUS if it actually works i can give other people tattoos people have said they would like to get a tattoo from me so thats cool anyway i'm just curios wheater this thing will stay or is just visting (thats the current tattoo i have) it's a small sun on my upper forefinger right hand btw nothing elaborate just a circle anyway bleah!

Right well this promotes something at little off, but I won't be the one to try it out. And a sun? What a sissy tatoo.
