To whomever uses this. I hope your enjoy the HEP C and MRSA that comes along with scratcher tattoos I know this site has allot of content and they can't always thin out the garbage but this should be common sense. If you are wanting a tattoo get it done buy an artist. Don't try to haggle with them about the price. You get what you pay for and a $50 is going to look like a $50 tattoo. So I leave you all with this image and hope it makes you think

i would advise against using a guitar string as a needle. they simply arent sanitary, Ive gotten an infection twice from a high e string poking me, and going under my skin. use a sterilized needle.

Tattoo needles are really cheap-$1-$3 dollars on the internet. Just cut to size. Better than a quitar string, and has a better point.

no no no never ever ever let the needle go so far in that the ink goes into your blood stream, your aiming for just under the skin layers its a skill to get it just right, thats why people go to tattoo shops, if you make this it should be for fun and to try on fruit or a leg of pork. real ink should be done by an artist after much thinking. not being a kill joy just as someone who spent thousands having ink removed that seemed like a good idea at the time :)
