I want to learn everything about tattoo guns , but I don't want to burn one up...so what I need is a breakdown of the assembly of a tattoo gun {exactly what goes where} ....I have a complete set of parts ...coils , frame and a rebuild kit and 18 g and 20 g springs .I also want to set this gun up as permantly as a liner.I don't want to buy another gun just yet to see how it's assembled so I can put this one together , thats why I hope someone here can help.

Do you have another machine to compare it to? If not Pm me and we will set up a time to meet on msn messenger or somewhere and we will assemble a machine together step by step. if you have a web cam and microphone it would be cool because you could see what im doing instead of trying to read my krunkie typing.

hey filelicker,
I have no doubts gremlin can help, but just for personal reference and general knowledge, check out this link: http://www.machinegunmagazine.com/MGM_HTML/MachineParts/machine_parts.html
they have exploded views and assembled views with parts descriptions. I do feel that walking through it with gremlin would also be very beneficial as well.
Not flaming, but Lyle Tuttle says "It is better to call your mother a whore than to refer to a tattoo MACHINE as a GUN.

to me a tattoo machine is a professional piece of equipment, and a tattoo gun is cobbled from a bic pen and tape player motor, and usually found in prisons..... lol (just my definitions though)
filelicker, what i had planned to do on a webcam confrence if you wanted was go over each part of the machine with you by name and what each parts job is, as I completely dissassemble one of my machines, then as i re-assemble it you can assemble yours at the same time, then we will set it up as a line or shader which ever you wanted. :D
