I havent been on in a while...because i've been busy. I have been working full time at Sailors and Saints tattoo in waterbury, CT. All of the help I had recieved on the forum paid off and I have been steadily learning and moving forward in the industry. I have made several connections and have made even more friends.
Yesterday as I arrived to the shop I noticed it had been broken into....everything taken...(all 5 of my machines, clave, power supplies, tubes, etc)
I had put lots of time and money into my machines and my heart is completely broken.
If anyone has any frames they could donate/sell...or tubes/grips...please contact me.
We are trying to do a benefit, but I am hoping I can get back on my feet sooner.
thank you for your time,
Eric Wilcox

Damn sorry to here 'bout that... the world is full o' assholes.
If I had a shop , I would definantly help. I dont keep but minimal supplies 'round here. I always believe in helping out wherever I can, especially under circumstances like that. But, surely someone 'round here can help out. Keep pushing on though, the sun will still rise tommarrow.
Peace Brother R.:cool:

O.K. people ...
i just spoke to Eric ..
he said he's good on ink .
someone sent him a liner a liner so i'm going to hook him up with a shader ..
Jerred is going to donate some 1 ' grips
the guys at the shop are going to put some stuff together ..
even though he asked ,now I'm asking ,,,
we need some tubes & tips for him ..
ansd if any of you guys got extra frames or clunkers (working or not) doing nothing but laying around ...i'm willing to do my best to get them up & running to send to him ..i will post pics of everything that is sent & that will be sent ...
he was'nt the only one hit by this robbery ...he said theres a another artist that got jacked too ,and she needs a machine or two also..
look around ...see what you got extra taking up space ...
i also
if you aint got no extra shit ...i can order (next day from kingpin ) if you want to put together something we can figure it out...(i will put exactly what was sent & who sent it up ..just so you guys know theres no funny shit going on + a detailed list of what was ordered ..)
or you can just send him the stuff ...
between Jerreds grips &the shader &the stuff from the guys here at the shop ..it'll be a heavy package ...i think someone should put up the shipping costs for us ...10.00$
thanx
let me know what you guys think ....
consider if you were in their shoes ...i did...
peace & blessings
Andy

I dont really have anything (good) to donate- but I can Paypal $5 to cover the costs involved or if there is a fund to get him kitted with stuff.

Andy.............or lotsix,
email me.... inkspressit@gmail.com
I got a few tips and back stems and maybe some other shit i can whack out after the 15th.
I hate when shit gets ripped but its an unfortunate part of life sometimes, always up to do what little i can, if i wasn't so constipated with machines i'd help there too.

What about flash? I keep it pretty lean as far as extra equipment laying around, but I can send you copies of my new set of flash or something.
