The 5 on that is the size of the tip. Like you said the bug pin 7 is the size of a 5. So they pair it with a 5 tip.
So a bugpin 7rl is like a standard 1205round liner. Which a standard rl is a 0.35 mm correct? So if I were to buy a bugpin 0.25mm 7rl you are saying to turn down the voltage on the tat pen because it will shred the skin more ? What voltage should I set it at ?
This taught me a lot that being said shoutout that akatsuki cloud
What power do you use on standards?
Do they make any difference for stick n poke?
What voltage do you use with your standards, I want to know the difference between your usage of standard to big pins.

I was also curious. You stated you turned it down to 7 for the buggies. Were you at 8 for the standards? Thanks brotha
thank you very much for the video :) i have a question 😅 isnt it so that there is not a huge difference if you choose a standard 12 03RL or for example a 10 05RL? i mean they make both about the same thick lines right? so is it better to have a thicker gauge but less needles, or a thinner gauge but with more needles? :)

I notice that I get better lines using a 10 07 RS opposed to a 12 05 RL . So I always use 10 7 RS 9 and 11 . I use bugpins for shading ( b & g stuff) as in curve magnums 08 13 RM and up And for colours I use 10 RM . I think that 12 RL RS and RM are too much for skin tho they are good for traditional tattoos

But then again I think is a matter of personal choice 🤔
Maybe go over all needle types and what they mean and are used for?

By bugpin you mean 8 or 10? And how would this rule of (-2) size points work with 8/12 and 10/12?

10s are technically called double zeros but mostly all tattoo artist call 10s bug pins
Im having difficulty tattooing the meaty parts of the body like the upper arm, stomach, and thigh. I try to line with a 9rl with my voltage set at 10 and it seems that my needle doesnt penetrate the skin well. Any tips?

it all comes down to the stretch, if you can get them in a postiion that part of the body is naturally stretched out, it helps a lot

The five might be the tube size the needle is sitting in possibly.
U said not Amazon for beginning what u think
What voltage should I use for lining and what voltage for packing colour.
Can I ask for a tattoo machine?
Hey, so for fineline and tiny tattoos you'd rather use bugpins?

For the outline you wanna use 12’s but you could def work a small tattoo with a bug pin
I found that bug pen needles cut fake skin really easy

So when using a bug pin I need to turn my speed down to make it not cut through the fakeskin

THis vid is a bit confusing, first you said if you want more saturated thin lines use bugpin, and later if you want more saturated lines use standart, which one gives you more saturation then in comparable sizes lest say 7 standart vs 9 bugpin should be roughly same size line?
@Tattooing101

It depends on you look you are trying to get big pins work great for small groupings but I’ve never issue a bugpin bigger than a 7. From there you can use a regular liner just fine. I mainly use bugpins for my mags doing more black and gray styles

@@Tattooing101 But im trying to figure out if it make sense to use bugpins at all as liners, they damage skin more, you gotta slow down hand speed, and they are less forgiving and you can achieve pretty much the same with standart size, looks like its better to just line with 0.35 all the time and shade with bugpins.

@ripper9112 they don't necessarily damage the skin more running single pass lines. A bugpin 5rl will make a more saturated line the size of a standard 3rl, but since there's more needles in the same size area, there will be more skin resistance when running the bugpins, so they don't cut through as easily.

@ripper9112 I use 10 gauge 3rl for everything though. Lining and shading.
