Graphak writes – “Using the motor from almost any remote control car/boat/airplane, a toothbrush, Bic Pen, tape, and other random stuff around the house, you can make a real tattto gun. This is similar to the kind that prison inmates make.”Link. Oh…Don’t build this, unless you tattoo MAKE on your arm or something, thanks.

    Just what i want, an inmate-grade tattoo gun. No need for ink, just let the infection do its thing!

    It would be less insulting to call your mother a whore than to call a machine of art, a gun.

    Congrats – another posting so stupidly dangerous that it shouldn’t have made it past the common sense meters and onto the blog. Right up there with the razor blade throwing stars.

    i think it’s ok to post humor, and that’s what this is.

    the razor blade throwing stars required a welder, so far the death toll has been at a steady zero – people are smart and responsible – not sure i’d like to turn make in to a nanny-nation style blog :(

    Brilliant! The person advocating ingenuity can’t figure out how to post a comment!! A “talented artist”, tattoo artist anyway, would never in a million years use this “gun”!

  17. Tattoo Artist says:

    I can’t believe people seriously trust that hunk o’ crap to make tattoos on their skin.

  18. Tattoo Artist says:

    Dude. I’m 14, and I’m probably smarter than you are… so shut the f*** up about how “our youth iz so stupid now days.” And don’t forget to work on your grammar and spelling.

  19. Y0sh! says:
