For those contemplating seeing Jared for ink, get off your ass and do it. One of the best guys I have met, lives in a beautiful part of CO, and cooks some fucking amazing food!!! I still need to go back and see him to finish my other sleeve.

J

 

He drew my big arm piece. smile.png

Thanks for the kind words J. I look forward to putting the finishing touches on the one sleeve and jamming out the other arm!

 

Aaron, I wish I could of done the tattoo for you also. I have visions of a b&g super realistic one up the back of the other arm! 

 

As I started tattoo'ing out of enjoyment and to be that guy that tatt'ed up all his friends and family. I love leaving a piece of me on people for life and also their souls. biggrin.png

 

I am honestly considering doing another one on the left arm.  This one took 14 hours.  But then again, a sleeve is something in the back of my mind also.

Not to say homie was slow but I personally could of done it in quite a bit less time. I am VERY deliberate and don't mess around as time is money. With that being said, I will tell you the same I told Jordan. A plane ticket, rental car and hotel are probably less than paying someone to do 8-12 hrs of tatt work on you as I would do the work for free if you make it here.
 

I can't accept free work.

Meh. I usually tell friends and fam to just pay enough to cover supplies and overhead. I would already have done a cross country trek to ink and meet all the SSA brothers, but life has not permitted it. 

Aaron,

Take the time to take this man up on the offer. I am hoping to make the trip in May or June for my next session. Bring the lady along to see CO too.

J

If its meant to happen, it will happen. The offer is there for you Aaron. I know how you are about taking things for free as you wouldn't even let me give your boy Lego's without giving something in return. Which btw was worth about double what I sent you. 

 

I don't accept free, Neal has really tested me.  wink.png  I forgot what I sent you, but Arthur loves the legos and builds with them often.  smile.png  As for coming out, travel for me is relative based on stored up vacation time based on time elapsed from layoff/new job turnover.  In all honesty, I'm so programmed to not take any time off whatsoever as to be prepped for the next layoff to carry me over until I find a new job.  

I understand the probability is unlikely due to life's circumstances. As far as payment, bring Arthur with you as I have about a hundred pounds of Lego's that need sorted and built into sets. lol

 

I still have quite a few states back east I need to travel to so you never know. :)

Rebuilt 2 material elevators, limit switchs must go bad in pairs. Just hearing the chain hit the floor makes me kringe.

 

Debulking, press roll bearing locked up. Rather large OD 9.5" ID 2 5/16 W 3.5"

 

Tonight needs to be much less hands on for me.

Most everything we have is Banner photo eyes, but these elevators came with a mechanical limit switch.

I have to move to a warmer, far less congested, far lower cost of living area. Sadly, that's Florida.

Fuck Volkswagen. It took me ~25 hours to do a 20 hour job. 2004 1.8 Turbo Jetta, Turbocharger, Timing belt; cam and crank seals, valve cover gasket, Spark plugs, oil pan gasket, axle, axle seal, hub, bearing, PCV valve assembly, vent pipes, breather tube, air filter, oil change... The turbo paid 6.5 hours and took me 8.5. Just a total nightmare.
