Dan Kubin V3R Sidewinder - Black Brass

Dan Kubin V3/23 Sidewinder - Black Brass: The Ultimate Hybrid Tattoo Machine

Are you looking for a tattoo machine that blends the power of coils with the smoothness of a rotary? The Dan Kubin V3/23 Sidewinder in Black Brass is the perfect hybrid that gives you the best of both worlds. Designed by one of the most innovative minds in tattooing, Dan Kubin, this machine is crafted to give professional artists precision, strength, and comfort.

Why the Dan Kubin V3/23 Sidewinder Stands Out

This isn’t just any tattoo machine; the V3/23 Sidewinder has been fine-tuned to perfection through years of development. Here’s why it’s a game-changer:

• Hybrid Power: The V3/23 Sidewinder packs the punch of a coil machine with the smooth efficiency of a rotary. Whether you’re outlining sharp, crisp lines or shading smooth gradients, this machine is built to handle it all. The hybrid mechanism ensures the perfect balance of strength and fluidity in every stroke.

• Solid Black Brass Frame: Not only does the Black Brass finish give it a sleek, professional look, but it also provides the weight and durability you need for long tattoo sessions. The brass gives it a heavier, solid feel, which helps in maintaining control and consistency throughout your work.

• Adjustable Hit: The Sidewinder V3/23 allows you to customise the hardness of the hit. You can easily dial in for softer shading or crank it up for harder, bolder lines. This versatility means it suits a wide range of styles, from fine line work to traditional tattooing.

• Balanced for Comfort: Tattooing for hours can take a toll on your hands. The V3/23 Sidewinder is designed with optimal weight distribution to reduce hand fatigue, so you can tattoo longer without losing precision. It’s ideal for those long, detailed pieces where endurance is key.

Perfect for Both Lining and Shading

One of the standout features of the Dan Kubin Sidewinder is its versatility. Whether you’re working on fine line details, bold outlines, or smooth shading, this machine can adapt. The adjustable hit mechanism means you can switch from lining to shading without missing a beat. For artists who want a single machine that can do it all, the V3/23 Sidewinder is the ultimate tool.

Why Choose the Dan Kubin V3/23 Sidewinder?

Machine specifications:

• Black oxide brass frame.
• The renowned rotary plotter. Effortlessly sinks any size of line just by rubbing the skin.
• The motor is the same as the Sidewinder V2-V4, which has stood the test of time. It has been a lifelong favourite of Sidewinder collectors.
• Vice-Lock it tightens easily on almost any pipe.
• Ideal for all varieties of line work or as a quick shader/packer.
• Timing mark on cam and frame to adjust the impact screw (same as V5 and V6).
• Numbered stroke dial so you can easily play with the stroke without fear of missing that sweet spot. Can't go too long or too short.

Machine configuration:

Standard needle on bar: wrap a thick rubber band around the engine cover and across the front of the machine to add tension to the needle bar. Thick rubber bands and Dan's Perfect nipples are recommended.

Cartridges: Wrap a rubber band around the engine cover and over the top of the armature bar to counteract the upward tension of the cartridge. Both thick and standard rubber bands will work, it will just depend on the tension of the cartridge membrane or rubber band to determine which rubber band provides adequate counter resistance.
