Step 8Finishing touches
Finishing touches
It's coming to an end! In this step we will be doing the more pointless stuff to make it look pretty and commutable ect.
Grips:
Grab some of the happiest colours you can find in your shrink-wrap collection and place them in descending order smallest to biggest (be sure that the smallest can fit over the tube) cut each one wider then the first one shorter... get it? Put a small amount of glue on the tube to prevent them slipping off and put the first layer on and hole it over a lighter. Repeat for all the other layers. You should end up with a very colourful grip.
Box:
Since the gun I'm making is portable I decide to make a box for it. Place the gun over a block of wood and trace around it, do the same for the battery pack and make a small space for a switch. Router out all the coloured spaces and there you have it a nice storage box. *I ran out of stuff to make a battery cover out of!
Practice:
You should get as much practice done as possible before using it on living things. Ask your local butcher if he has any pig skin laying around it's a great equivalent to human skin. And get some practice done.
Thank you for reading my first instructable
I'm more then open to any pointers ect.
I am not liable for any damage you cause and all that crap, I mean if you actual build a homemade tattoo gun off my instructions and manage to screw yourself up then that's your fault. I'm merely writing this as a guide or the sharing of ideas and stuff.
