The modern tattoo machine has taken many forms as of late. As science finds more funding from the privet sector and better communication between artists has brought technical information closer to the tattoo industry we have seen the method of depositing ink into the skin change. This article will discuss the power settings for both line work and shading. The modern two coil tattoo machine is the most widely used machine today, all in all a proved work horse in today's shop. This is tho machine I dicuss.
First off I cannot stress enough the importance of having the proper capacitor for the job, to high of a volt failure listing can really effect the fine tuning and power set up for your machine.
Most tattoo machines use a 12 volt system and a rheostat controls the base power output of the power supply. The clip cord (The wire that runs from power source to the machine) is polarity constant, that is to say one wire is + the other is - this is important as the capacitor can heat up and explode, Ive never seen this but hear of it from time to time. As most supply houses do not typically mark the polarity of the clip cord an easy way to find out is to hook up the machine and let it run for a few seconds and touch the capacitor, if it is hot or warm switch the polarity and mark one for the front of the machine.
Next off an adjustment to the contact screw and point on the spring need to be made. Back in the late 1970s "Dime for a line, nickel for a shade." was a jingle we often heard and still stands in my book. This meaning with the armature bar fully depressed to the coil a dime thickness between the contact point on the spring and the end of the contact screw is a good place to start the tuning process. Now set your power supply on the low end abuot 10 volts and depress the foot switch, Listen for "stops" and increase power slowely "stops are when the capacitor is not relesing power at a stedy rate this sounds like sputtering or "stops". stop the power increase

if you go to the town map, click on the salon and go to it, once there, go down to the basement and there should be a tattoo chair, click it and choose get tattoo, your Sim will then ask to get a tattoo and will shortly get one. you can also buy a digital tattoo applicator from the buy menu and you can then tattoo yourself on your home lot.
I think you have to go to the beauty salon thing...you know, where people go to get makeovers...anyways, go to the basement (or wherever the tattoo chair is) and click on it. It should say remove tattoo. Or you can buy a tattoo chair from the hobbies and skills section in buy mode and do it that way. Hope this helped!! :)

There are many settings that you can get to while on the Xbox 360 that will allow you to see family settings and parental controls. To get there, you can go to the settings screen in the console control section.
To become a tattoo artist you need to have the sims 3 base game and buy the expansion pack-sims3 ambitions. The expansion pack includes new jobs (careers) one of the careers is the tattoo artist.
