MojoSlider
(DK Small Batch)
The Mojoslider is the first product in the DK Small Batch project. This machine is a slider all on its own, completely unique to any other slider on the market. The Mojoslider is an impact with dampening style rotary, similar to the concept of the Mojobox and Sidewider. It is a good all around machine with solid saturation with any sized mag, and 1-11 round liners. Will run ideally between 4-7 volts.
It can be run with standard needles or cartridges. If using cartridges, I highly recommend using a rubber band style cartridge, or a low tension membrane. Most membrane cartridges have too much tension to work with such an aggressive, punchy action.
There are 2 different ways to modify the hit. 1. Flipping the polarity changes the hit from sharp the slightly more “dull,” which is great for shading/blending or solid fill work on tight skin. Positive up will hit sharper, ideal for lining or heavier shading. Positive down will be the slightly more “dull” hit. 2. The artist can use their rubber band to position over or under the protruding post on the slide to change the force and dampening of the hit. (Please see the Mojoslider set up video)
The binding posts on the thumbscrews cam be secured on either side of the frame. This machine weighs 5 oz/143 g. The center of mass being low and forward for a very stable, ergonomic feel in the hand.
Please keep lubricants to a minimum. It can actually run dry, but I like to put a single drop of Tri-Flo or Superlube on the slide rails once a month or it is seems to act sluggish. Wipe off the exess. Too much oil is like too much ointment on a fresh tattoo. -Your customers think it’s the best way, while we know that’s the worst thing to do! -Enjoy!
