Tons to do all kinds of new things in the works, been tattooing like crazy! And doing some kool things to the shop will keep you people posted!

Tattooed today

Well did a couple of tattoo's today and filled some orders. made some kool machine parts. Pretty average day.

What a weekend!

So the drive out to the show was.....let's see.... I missed the turn off to Portland and had to back track a little, but we got there! Set up booth and sold a machine right off the bat! I like that feeling. I love going to shows to meet people and bullshit, the stories we get to swap are great! In this top pic is Nick from SuperGenius tattoo in Seattle.

 Here is Damon Conklin, The owner of SuperGenius doing some oil painting.

 After the show we took off to Bend, Oregon to see our buddies Ed and Chad at Monolith Tattoo Studio, Chad did Ian's neck and after words did my neck. What a night! Got done around 2 in the morning.

Well we stayed the night and hit the road in the morning.....well guess who didn't pay attention again on the road back home? You guessed it me! So we had to take some back roads to get back on track but we did make it home.

Well tomorrow is a full day of filling orders and building machines!

New parts!

Well I have Plain Jane base plates ready to go on the website now.

 Left handed base plates! Got to have those!

Well taking off in the morning for Portland!!

Busy!

 My mind is going nuts right now! To much going on!

 I did get some new binders made up in Iron!

 I did build 7 machines in 2 days! Have all my stuff packed for the show. If  any of you are in Portland this weekend you better head to the show. http://www.portlandtattooexpo.com/home.html

Well I'm doing the Portland show this coming weekend so i have a lot to get done! I have like 6 machines to finish up, load up all my tools and parts....plus I'm booked up for a few days for tattooing! Let the stress begin! Hung out with my kids this weekend, Love those guys like crazy!

Bead blasted some frames today, made some skull contact screws! That's about it, except for a half sleeve tattoo I did. Then picked up the kids for the weekend! So I will be back on Monday to leave a post of my day!

Oh Yes!

Some new builds today.

Not much today.

Well I filled orders today, did some rearranging in the shop area and that's about it. Had the kids today! Way more important then work! I did post some pics on my Facebook page http://www.facebook.com/#!/flyingirons And I do have a Facebook "Like" page for Flying Irons. http://www.facebook.com/pages/Flying-Irons/156655424383402

This picture of the #5 machine is one of my favorites.

I'm always drawing up ideas for machines designs, well I'm drawing one up now. But I'm not going to post it on here, I have a secret book for that! But when I build them I will post them. Well keeping it short tonight. I need my beauty rest for more machine building tomorrow.

Built some machines today.

I did get a lot done today, started some builds I haven't touched for years and now getting around to them. Finished up a couple of machine's. Hopefully I will get some more done tomorrow!

Ummm?

I'm not much of a writer, but I do love building anything mechanical. If I'm not tattooing or hanging with my kids, or girlfriend.... I will be building tattoo machines. I tried to do a blog a few years ago and that worked out for like a month. Well this time I'm going to make it priority, more for the sake of recording my life as a machine builder. I will post as many pictures and let you know when I'm at an upcoming tattoo convention...expo. Whats fun is Blogging on here.....I'm sure it I won't get a follower for a while but that is fine with me.
