Woo wood the acus m1 is top level and it's just keeps getting better and better ❤❤

[@1Dantrn]

I like the heavy rod guide with the disposable grip. But I also added that hole in the original rod guide. It's aluminum so it's easy to drill through. Definitely need the 4.1 brass cam.

[@zacpedrosa1203]

@@1Dantrn what size bit you use to make the hole I was thinking same

[@1Dantrn]

@@zacpedrosa1203 1/16. It's a lil larger than theirs but it works.

[@zacpedrosa1203]

Oh hell yeah 😎 I'm interested in the brass cam I'm already rocking the 4.1 cam for everything smooth 😎 👌

[@redgiesoulwisetattoo8963]

Kia ora Adam. Hope you well. I'm mainly doing Māori tattoo also called Tā Moko back home here in New Zealand which is mainly linework. I'm currently trialing those cams for Acus too... so.... for someone who mainly does line work these have made the Acus next level. Still yet to trial the 1 Dot but the 2 dot so far has done very thing I need to throw at the work needed for what I do. Who knows what they will do next... M1 - the gift that keeps on giving

[@adamdarklord]

lol secret prototypes are not so secret apparently. Dot 1 is my favorite

[@redgiesoulwisetattoo8963]

@@adamdarklord Yeah, the brother from the other page let that slip BUT he wasn't to know. Infact it will only cause more intrigue for these Machines. Im certain that Acus will be the go top Pen Machine like you and the bro have said many times too. To the people eyeing up the ACUS M1 -I been pulling lines with 11rl like a dream and I am used to 5mm punching in BUT being 4.1 has been fantastic. 4.1 mm plunger bar too my suprise has not been much of an adjustment at all

[@jdwellsart5104]

What is the Dot 1 and Dot 2 you guys are referring to ? A new product coming out by ACUS??!

[@adamdarklord]

@ yes dot 1 is code name for the prototype of the 4.1 heavy cam and Dot 2 is the 4.1 super heavy cam

[@inkbyhero]

I love the Acus, but I feel like regardless of which stroke I use its lining capabilities leave room for improvement. I have tried lining with the 3.7 through the 5.0 and it doesn’t put lines in quite how I’d like. The sol nova unlimited puts lines in much faster and more efficiently in my opinion but maybe its user error.

[@bullsheeptattoo]

Bro, it would be super cool to have a comparison between the Acus M1 "now 😉" and other machines known for lining. What do you think?

[@adamdarklord]

The video needs to be made! The shit thing is that now as im back making videos the stack of review products is getting bigger so I got to bust all those videos out before I can make a video that I can have fun with 😭

[@bullsheeptattoo]

​@@adamdarklord It’s a video that I'd love to watch, but I understand your stance.

[@dominickwilkes2662]

It is not great for lining period. I’ve put it up against all my machines and even the cheaper machines p3pro turbo lines circles around the machine, but I don’t believe this machine was really meant for lining. The sharp 5.0 and the p3 turbo will line with anything even 18rs no struggle

[@bullsheeptattoo]

​@@dominickwilkes2662 Well that seems a bit dramatic doesn't it? Acus can line like any other tattoo machine, but if you want a proper liner you must go for a Dan Kubin. I just got mine and nothing, specially pen machines, compares to it! It's just another level!

[@bullsheeptattoo]

Dot 1 crazy good! 😉😂

[@redgiesoulwisetattoo8963]

My man! Ive only done the Dot 2. With that you were right not to even be concerned about it not being a 5mm... it does all I need dude. I love it! MAn, I wish Portugal and New Zealand were neighbours. I'd sit an chat all day with ya bara!

[@bullsheeptattoo]

@@redgiesoulwisetattoo8963 My friend, you gotta try the dot 1. A lot less vibration but the punch is there the same. Game changer no doubts. Cheers mate, who knows if one day we see each other personally

[@adamdarklord]

Dot 1 is my main cam rn! 🙌

[@bullsheeptattoo]

@@adamdarklordmine too. Game changer!

[@redgiesoulwisetattoo8963]

Hey boys! I finally tried the dot 1. Yes it's bad ass BUT even though there's a lil vibration in the dot 2 - dot 2 is my favorite. It kinda reminds me of a coil-ish! Quote 'ish" for what I do. Line fast-ish all lines... unless I'm doing normal tattoo but ai can run that thing at m0, m1 or m2 and ai love it. So for me when doing Tā Moko Tattoo it's the dot 2 all the ways BUT I love the standard cams even the ymm for all other work because all I gotta do it turn down the hit BUT for anything Māori it's the DOT 2. I believe this tattoo machine will be leading in the market as it's so versatile. With no other machine being able to change EvERyTHINg on it like this kn with all external parts being 100 percent autoclavable.... these other machines need to step up to the plate especially when they are charging the earth for machines that do one job, cost an Arm and a leg and have their main parts being plastic leading people to believe this b.s spray and walk away means you gitba clean machine..... no no no. There's a reason as apprentices we scrubbed cleaned old school tubes and autoclaved em. Cos that shit actually got cleaned between clients. And clink wrap... doest keep a tattoo clean in-between tattooes. For it's money... worth every penny. New Zealand!

You can also buy the disposable grips from element tattoo supply

[@jayxboy5946]

Im after a new machine and your videos have helped sooo much. I normally run a sol nova from cheyenne with a steel grip.. Iv nailed it down to my top 3 . Love using 4/4.2 stroke machines . Tattooing both traditional, neo trad , solid black work In your opinion what would you rate these machines . From 1 to 3 , 1 being the top choice. - critical torque ( unfortunately no steel grips) - Neuma 5 flex - bishop wand Thanks dude !

[@adamdarklord]

I’d do Neuma 5 -packs color and lines good Torque 4.2 stroke - colors and lines good Packer wand - can do b&g and color With Neuma being the top of the list. The only thing with that machine is that it’s loud and lots of vibration. I don’t use it with 3rl because I prefer the Acus for that. But it packs color faster than any machine I’ve ever used and can do fat lines

[@jayxboy5946]

@@adamdarklord dude sick! Thanks so much for your input. I normally run my 3.5 unlimited for anything under a 1205rl so the vibration wouldn't be a problem.. owwweee looks like I'm getting new toys !!

[@mephistosteiner8064]

I'm a beginner and want to do black and grey realism and horror. Should I get the 4.1 over the 3.7?

[@adamdarklord]

4.1 for sure!

[@madbrah8361]

Bro! Mine came in today. Only had an hour to test run it, but man it’s insanely consistent. What do you find your favorite setting for stippling and lining to be? I want to try out some configurations. Running the 4.1mm stroke

[@adamdarklord]

I run 4.1 m2 94hz for everything and if I stipple I bring it down all the way or to 54hz somewhere in there Try all M modes tho I just set it at M2 and try to forget about it. The brass cams are magic… hopefully they release them and soon

[@danielrodrigues3418]

Anybody tried the 5mm stroke? I do blackwork and im thinking in buying one but I saw some people saying it doesn’t hit like a bishop linner

[@adamdarklord]

5mm stroke works good. Acus is dropping new heavy and super heavy cams soon so you can make it hit crazy hard in any stroke length

[@AndrueSOCAL]

So dope

[@adonisbonilla6279]

What setting do you guys use for the Acus, when pulling lines ??? I struggle to pull lines with it

[@adamdarklord]

4.1 m2 94hz I can pull lines with 14rs all day. Machine is smooth that’s why it feels soft but it’s actually very powerful

[@HereJohnyIs]

4.1 m+2 130-140hz on 18rs, 11rl can do lines fast in one pass. If less hz - it's need heavy or super heavy cams on my opinion. On 130-140 hz still not over traumatize skin, if you'll do it fast.
