Dan Kubin V3/23 Sidewinder - Gold x Black CC Workhorse Irons

NEW Dan Kubin V3/23 Sidewinder!

"The V3/23 follows the same concept as the past V3r, but focusing on what makes a Sidewinder a Sidewinder. It hits hard, effortlessly and fast. -Intended for experienced artists who don't want to mess around.

The Model 23 is more reminiscent of the original 2019 V3r, but with some improvements in tuning longevity.

We stripped it down a little further and added the additional performance.

The stroke wheel has been simplified with 3 timing marks instead of numbers. The marks are of different lengths, with the longest mark signifying the longest stroke range, a middle mark being the default setting, and a short mark to signify the shortest stroke range.the sound of the machine has been improved compared to the 2nd and 3rd V3r variation. In addition, the machine is now a little lower, which provides more ergonomics".

Thanks for watching - Dan.

Machine specifications:

24-carat gold-plated brass frame and motor cover with black hardware (*Finish may vary)

DK Thumbscrew, new armature bar and updated running wheel for improved performance.

The renowned rotary plotter. Effortlessly sinks any size of line by simply brushing against the skin.

The engine is the same as the Sidewinder V2-V4 and V7, which has stood the test of time. It has been a lifelong favourite of Sidewinder collectors.

Vice-Lock that tightens easily on almost any pipe

Excellent for all varieties of in-line work or as a quick shader/bundler

Timing mark on cam and frame to adjust the impact screw (same as V5 and V6)

Dialed stroke dial so you can easily play with the stroke without fear of losing that sweet spot. You can't make it too long or too short.

Machine configuration:

Standard needle on bar: Wrap a thick rubber band around the motor cover and across the front of the machine to add tension to the needle bar. Thick rubber bands and Dan's Perfect nipples are recommended.
Cartridges: Wrap a rubber band around the motor cover and over the top of the armature rod to counteract the upward tension of the cartridge. Both thick and standard rubber bands will work, it will just depend on the tension of the cartridge membrane or rubber band to determine which rubber band provides adequate counter resistance.
