Your needle bend and neuma setup??

Posted by Dimethyl on 05.19.08ohio

Hey Mike just wanted to see what kinda needle bends you run on your neuma and what grommet/nipple setup you run.. Also you mod your machines at all?? And lastly you had any problems with machines spitting or lining poorly?

In my new book there is a picture of the exact needle bend i do,its pretty slight,i just use those rubber grommets with the neumas,i dont mod them at all,and yeah every so often the machine will spit with thin colors,i think more of a bend in the bar could help that,maybe an extra rubberband.when that happens ill just play with it for a minute and usually move things around untill it stops.

Alrite, well how do you feel about the liner, i realise you don't ecorporate alot of lines in your work but do you seem to have any problems?? The needle regardless of what grouping seems to jump around in the tip alot creating alot of inconsistency. What do you think?

as far as the liner jumpin around,again try a little more bend in the bar,maybe just at the needles,and if that doesnt do it,try another rubberband,if your using the #8s from neuma dont exceed 4 rubberbands i usually use 2..
