SPENDING TIME AT DESIGNMASTER'S TATTOO 12-21-11

On Wednesday. 12-21-11, I rode the Harley down to see TATU at Designmasters Tattoo Studio here in Wichita Falls Texas. After calling TATU first, he told me that GUNNER and his son Joshua were heading down to the Studio from Lawton Oklahoma. Scroll down and check out Designmaster's Tattoo Studio and see who was there during my visit.  REMEMBER: IF YOU WANT TO SEE THE PICTURE BIGGER, JUST CLICK ON THE PICTURE.


This is the Designmaster's Tattoo sign located out in front of the business. The address is 3502B Sheppard Access Rd Wichita Falls Texas and the phone number is: 940-733-9151. (The studio is located a couple blocks South of the main gate of Sheppard AFB).


This is the studio building. Joshua's truck is the white truck and TATU's is the silver truck.

This GUNNER and his son, Joshua. Joshua is home on leave from he US NAVY and is assigned to a Nimitz class aircraft carrier. His next port of call is Japan. And girls, Joshua is single... GUNNER is the Vice President of the Red River Chapter of the Guardians  Of The Children. See this link for info o n the Nimitz Class Carriers:  http://www.naval-technology.com/projects/nimitz/ and this link for the US Navy: http://www.navy.mil/swf/index.asp

This is our back patch for our Chapter of the Guardians Of The Children. Unfortunately, this will be the last posting of anything to due with the GOC on FaceBook. I Just received an e-mail from the upper echelon that we are no longer to post GOC business on FB... for more info on the Red River Chapter of the GOC, see this link: http://rrgoc5.blogspot.com/.  For more on the GOC, see this link: http://www.guardiansofthechildren.com/


This is TATU. He is the one that does my ink. If you are in the area and are thinking about getting a new tattoo, stop by and see TATU for all your inking needs. If he isn't there, see Stone, Jason or Sean. All are excellent artists. TATU is also our GOC-Red River Chapter's  National Rep and he sponsored me in to the GOC.

This is Jason, one of the other artists at Designmasters Tattoo Studio. I have watched Jason work and he is very, very good. Plus he is an interesting guy to talk to. He makes my visits extra enjoyable. Plus, he allows me to take pics of him applying ink.

GUNNER at Designmasters Tattoo Studio.

This is the screen saver on TATU's computer. It's either his computer or the studio's computer.
Lubriderm Lotion is what you put on your tattoo to keep it from drying out and cracking. You use this AFTER the initial period when you get your tattoo. Immediately after, you put Aquafor on it to help with the healing and irritation to the skin that getting ink causes.
This stuffed bobcat with the reading glasses gets a laugh out of most customers.
Looking at the work areas. From closest to farthest: Sean's chair, TATU's new creme colored chair, Stone's chair and down by the window is Jason's chair. Jason was working on the lady, seen here in the sweats. She was getting a design on her right side to her hip. Since it was rather large, Jason was letting her get up and stretch before continuing
Joshua gets ready to receive his new ink and TATU prepares the necessary equipment & ink that he'll need.

GUNNER waiting patiently for his turn in TATU's chair...


Joshua is ready and Tatu applies the outline to Joshua's left upper arm. (THE REMAINING PHOTO'S WERE TAKEN BY GUNNER AND SENT TO ME WITH HIS PERMISSION TO USE THEM TO FINISH THIS POST). I had to leave to take care of some family business and could not take any more photos for this post. Thanks GUNNER!!

TATU working on Joshua's ink. I think he was getting a tribal band and Eagle.
Joshua watches as TATU works on his arm

Hey Joshua!!! Does it sting?  His reply....Nope, not at all....(photo taken by Snapshot (me) )

Good looking tattoo. TATU is doing a great job, as usual.


TATU is putting the final touches to Joshua's tattoo.


And here is the finished tattoo.

A closer view of Joshua's new ink. Outstanding job TATU and a great looking tattoo, Joshua.


Now, it's GUNNER's turn to get some additional work done on his tattoo.
TATU working on GUNNER's tattoo.
I believe that TATU does all of GUNNER's ink also. Great lookin' tiger,.
TATU working on GUNNER"S tattoo.


And here is the finished tattoo. Another great job by TATU and some great additions to an already great looking tattoo. With this photo, this post will conclude.

It was great hangin' at Designmasters Tattoo Studio today and seeing TATU, GUNNER, Jason and meeting Joshua. Ya'll pray for Joshua as he does his tour of duty with the Navy. He messes with demolitions so he will sure need your prayers for safety.

RED RIVER HARLEY DAVIDSON 12-16-2011

Yesterday, Friday, 12-16-2011, I finally got on the Harley and rode out to Red River Harley Davidson, here in Wichita Falls, Texas. I hadn't been to the dealership or ridden the Harley since 8-26-2011 due to a surgery and it sure felt good to ride the bike and see the folks again down at RRHD, even if it was a short ride (18 miles round trip) and a short visit. So, scroll down and check out this brief post and REMEMBER: IF YOU WANT TO SEE THE PICTURE BIGGER, JUST CLICK ON THE PICTURE.


Welcome to Red River Harley Davidson, located here in Wichita Falls Texas. It is at 4514 Northwest Freeway (US287N/City View Drive) and the phone number is: 940-264-7743. For more info, see this link: http://www.redriverharley-davidson.com/

Looking at the Red River Harley Davidson "Pegasus" out in front of the dealership. Many businesses have purchased the horse sculptures from the Mane Event as part of an advertising gimmick. Prices for the horses can be as high as $100,000, according to one report. For more info on the Mane Event, see this link:  http://www.themaneevent.org/

This is Terri and that's Darren in the background. They work the Parts & Accessories. Terri also does an outstanding job at sewing patches onto vests and vest alterations.

Here is Charlie hard at work. Most of you regular viewers will remember Charlie as the Manager of Four Stars Motorcycle Ranch in Henrietta Texas. Charlie moved to RED RIVER HARLEY DAVIDSON when Four Stars Auto Ranch shut down the Motorcycle Ranch.

Two of the working Sales girls in the motor clothing section.  Casey is on the left and my favorite salesgirl, Ginger, is on the right. All of the motor clothing sales staff are my favorites but Ginger is currently my #1.


Some of the new 2012 Harley's. The red bike is a Street Glide

The orange bike is a 2012 Harley Road Glide...

 
                               

Another picture of Casey &Ginger.                                                                                  

Here is the 8 in 1 Harley Screwdriver set that I got. I needed the star shaped end so I can tighten up any loose bolts on the Harley. I found out an Allen wrench doesn't hack the program.

RRHD currently has a rack of brand new t-shirts with sizes ranging from small to 5x, for $13 plus chump change for tax. Here is the front of one I bought
Here is the back

And here is the front of the other one I got today. Tell ya what, these shirts usually run $25 or more at Harley dealerships and to find them at $13 is a real deal. I plan on getting a couple more.
After paying for my stuff and saying good-bye to my friends there, I headed out to the bike to head to the house., Here is a pic of my Harley Road King parked out in the parking lot. All the other bikes you see are the used big Harley cruisers they have for sales. The Dyna's, Heritages , Sportsters and others are also parked out front and wrap around the East side of the building. So, if you're looking for a new or used Harley, RRHD is the place to go because they have plenty of both.

I enjoyed riding the bike today and seeing all the folks at RRHD and I look forward to going there again real soon.

TONY DOES MY NEW INK 12-1-11

TODAY, THURSDAY 12-1-11, I DROVE DOWN TO DESIGNMASTERS TATTOO STUDIO HERE IN WICHITA FALLS TEXAS TO SEE MY GOOD FRIEND, TATTOO ARTIST GREAT, TONY BASS, TO GET SOME MORE INK. AS USUAL, I HAD MY CAMERA WITH ME AND TOOK PICTURES OF EVERYTHING, SO SCROLL DOWN AND CHECK OUT TONY AS HE WORKS HIS MAGIC ON MY LEFT INSIDE FOREARM AND REMEMBER: IF YOU WANT TO SEE THE PICTURE BIGGER, JUST CLICK ON THE PICTURE.


HERE IS A COPY OF THE BUSINESS CARD FROM DESIGNMASTERS TATTOO STUDIO HERE IN WICHITA FALLS. THEY ARE LOCATED AT 3502 SHEPPARD ACCESS RD WICHITA FALLS TEXAS. YOU CAN CONTACT TONY AT 940-232-1825, IF YOU LIKE WHAT YOU SEE. I HAVE OTHER POSTS OF OTHER INK THAT TONY HAS APPLIED ON ME. CHECK THOSE OUT TOO.

AS I PULLED INTO THE PARKING LOT, TONY WAS OUT SITTING ON THE STEPS WAITING FOR ME. I HAD CALLED AND TOLD HIM I WAS ON MY WAY. TONY ALSO, WAS MY SPONSOR INTO THE GUARDIANS OF THE CHILDREN-RED RIVER CHAPTER, A WHILE BACK. I AM A PATCHED MEMBER NOW AND TONY IS OUR NATIONAL REP. CHECK OUT THE NATIONAL G.O.C. SITE AT THIS LINK: http://www.guardiansofthechildren.com/AboutUs.htm
ANOTHER PICTURE OF TONY RESTING ON THE STEPS.


THEY HAD JUST REMODELED THE STUDIO. THE CHAIRS &  AREAS BELONG TO: JASON (BEHIND ME), STONE, TONY AND THE FAR END IS SEAN'S AREA
TONY DID THE VINYL AND JASON DID THE REST OF THE ARTWORK ON THIS PROJECT FOR THE WICHITA COUNTY HUMANE SOCIETY. THE FOLKS AT DESIGNMASTERS TATTOO STUDIO DO MORE THAN TATTOO'S, THEY ALSO HELP OUT ON COMMUNITY PROJECTS
LOOKING OUT THE FRONT WINDOW AT MY TRUCK. THAT IS SEAN OUT FRONT.

LOOKING AT THE WORK AREA FROM TONY'S DESK AREA. TONY IS ALSO THE STUDIO MANAGER. THE OWNER IS GERALD BUT HE AND LISA, (HIS WIFE), ARE BUSY GETTING ANOTHER TATTOO STUDIO READY FOR OPENING ON 12-5-11 (TENTATIVELY SCHEDULED, THAT IS). IT WILL BE LOCATED ON KEMP AND I TALKED TO LISA TODAY AND I WILL DRIVE OUT THERE TOMORROW AND GET SOME PICTURES AND GIVE YA ALL A SNEAK PEAK AT THE NEW SHOP. AS IT STANDS NOW, I BELIEVE GERALD & LISA ARE ALSO GOING TO BE THE OWNER/MANAGERS.  MORE TOMORROW.

HERE IS TONY LOOKING UP SOME INFO IN ONE OF THE MANY CATALOGS THAT THE STUDIO HAS. THE DESKTOP PICTURE ON THE COMPUTER OF HIM ON HIS BIKE, WAS TAKEN BY ME ON ONE OF OUR RUNS UP TO OKLAHOMA.
AS I WAITED AND TALKED TO TONY, STEVE CAME IN AND WANTED TONY TO DO SOME LETTERING ON HIS ARM. WHEN I SAW HIS INK WAS GOING TO BE "GATTIS" I TOLD HIM I HAD SEEN THAT BEFORE ON SOMEONE EITHER HERE AT THE SHOP OR OUT AND ABOUT. HE TOLD ME THAT IT WAS PROBABLY HIS SON.


HERE IS STEVE WITH THE LETTERS STENCILED ON HIS ARM. I HAD TO LEAVE AND DRIVE UP TO IOWA PARK TEXAS AND MEET JANICE, OUR DAUGHTER AMY & OUR GRANDSON, KYLE, AT THE HIGHWAY GRILL FOR DINNER. AS A RESULT, I DID NOT GET ANY PICTURES OF TONY WORKING ON STEVE'S ARM..
HERE IS OUR GRANDSON KYLE, ZONKED OUT AND CATCHING A FEW Z'S IN THE RESTAURANT. HE IS 3 WEEKS OLD TODAY..


ANOTHER VIEW OF KYLE, JUST OPENING HIS EYES TO SEE WHAT GRANDPA WAS UP TO NOW...

AFTER DINNER, I WENT BACK TO DESIGNMASTERS TATTOO STUDIO AND STEVE HAD GONE. TONY DREW UP THE TATTOO AND PUT THE OUTLINE ON MY ARM. IT WILL BE COLORED IN LIKE THE TEXAS FLAG WITH WICHITA FALLS RUNNING ACROSS THE TOP IN AN ARC.
AND HERE IS TONY WORKING ON THE OUTLINE.


HERE IS TONY WORKING ON THE LETTERING. THEY SAY THE INSIDE PART OF YOUR ARM IS SENSITIVE. THEY ARE RIGHT BUT IT WAS ONLY A STINGING SENSATION WITH NO REAL PAIN TO TALK ABOUT. SO IF YOU ARE WORRIED ABOUT PAIN, THERE ARE SOME PLACES ON THE BODY THAT FOLKS GET TATTOOED, THAT IF I WERE TO GET ONE IN THE SAME PLACE, I'D BE HOWLING AT THE MOON. BUT, KEEP IN MIND, EVERYONE HAS A DIFFERENT TOLERANCE FOR PAIN. I HAVE TATTOO'S ON BOTH ARMS AND MY CHEST AND NONE HURT WHEN I GOT THEM. JUST A LITTLE STINGING. I WOULD ALSO HAVE TO SAY IT IS ALSO THE EQUIPMENT AND ARTIST AND HOW HE ACTUALLY DOES THE TATTOO THAT REALLY DETERMINES WHETHER YOU HURT OR NOT. TONY USES GOOD EQUIPMENT AND KEEPS HIS EQUIPMENT STERILE. PLUS, HE HAS BEEN DOING TATTOO'S FOR A LONG TIME AND HE ISN'T ROUGH OR CLUMSY AND DOES NOT USE A LOT OF NOTICEABLE PRESSURE LIKE SOME DO AND THAT IS WHERE YOU BLEED AND HURT. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND TONY AS THE MAN TO USE IN THE WICHITA FALLS AREA FOR YOUR INK NEEDS. AND IF HE IS ON DAYS OFF, I RECOMMEND ANY OF THE OTHERS AT DESIGNMASTERS. ALL DO EXCEPTIONAL JOBS AND THIS INCLUDES: GERALD, JASON AND STONE.. TO BE HONEST, I CAN'T SAY AYE OR NAY ABOUT SEAN YET BECAUSE I HAVEN'T SEEN ANY OF HIS WORK. BUT, GERALD WOULD NOT HIRE ANYONE THAT WOULD GIVE A NEGATIVE OUTLOOK ON THE BUSINESS.
HERE IS THE OUTLINE OF MY NEW INK. I CAN'T WAIT TO SEE IT WITH COLOR AND I KNOW TONY IS GOING TO DO A GREAT JOB THERE, ALSO
AND, HERE IT IS, COMPLETED. OUTSTANDING!!


I GOT UP AND WENT TO USE THE SINK AND I AM ALWAYS LOOKING FOR STUFF TO TAKE PICTURES OF. THIS WAS UP ON THE WALL ABOVE THE TOILET AND I COULDN'T RESIST GETTING A PICTURE OF IT..

HERE IS THE TATTOO COVERED OVER AFTER THE OINTMENT/SALVE WAS APPLIED. I WAS TO REMOVE IT IN A COUPLE OF HOURS AND THEN USE AND PUT AQUAPHOR HEALING OINTMENT ON THE INK 3-4 TIMES A DAY.
AND HERE IS THE TATTOO, SEVERAL HOURS LATER WITH AQUAPHOR RUBBED ON IT. AGAIN AN OUTSTANDING JOB BY TONY BESS AT DESIGNMASTERS TATTOO STUDIO IN WICHITA FALLS TEXAS.  HERE IS THE LINK WITH THE INFO ON AQUAPHOR OINTMENT & USE WITH TATTOO'S:     http://www.squidoo.com/aquaphor-tattoo-care
THIS WILL CONCLUDE THIS POST.

I ENJOYED VISITING DESIGNMASTERS TATTOO STUDIO AGAIN AND SEEING TONY, JASON AND MEETING SEAN AND STEVE. I ONLY HAVE ONE MORE, POSSIBLY TWO, TATTOO'S TO GET AND TONY WILL BE THE ONE I USE. AGAIN, I HIGHLY RECOMMEND TONY, SO GIVE HIM A CALL FOR YOUR TATTOO NEEDS, WHETHER IT BE A NEW TATTOO, AN OLD TATTOO THAT NEEDS SERVICING OR IF YOU WANT ONE COVERED UP. AGAIN HIS NUMBER IS; 940-232-1825. IF YOU NEED VINYL DONE OR SIGNS LIKE THEY DID FOR THE WICHITA COUNTY HUMANE SOCIETY OR WHATEVER YOUR NEEDS CALL DESIGNMASTERS TATTOO STUDIO TODAY.

BILL'S 52' BSA "GOLDEN FLASH" BOBBER 11-30-11

EVERY YEAR I TRY TO RIDE THE BIKE OUT TO TUCSON ARIZONA AND VISIT MY BEST FRIEND, BILL, WHO I MET AT SHAW AFB, SOUTH CAROLINA WHERE I WAS SENT TDY FROM GEORGIA. WE BOTH WERE THEN SHIPPED OVERSEAS TO THAILAND, TO A          SUPPORT BASE, DURING THE VIETNAM WAR WINDDOWN. WE BOTH LOVE                      MOTORCYCLES AND RIDING AND THAT HAS KEPT THIS FRIENDSHIP TOGETHER FOR ALMOST 40 YEARS OR SO. BILL SENT ME SOME PICTURES OF HIS "NEW" BIKE AND I SCANNED THEM AND TOLD HIM I WOULD MAKE A POST ON THE BLOG FOR HIM. SO, WITH HIS PERMISSION I MAKE THIS HIS POST. ALL PICTURES WERE TAKEN BY BILL OR HIS OTHER HALF, GINA. SCROLL DOWN AND CHECK OUT HIS "NEW" BIKE AND REMEMBER: IF YOU WANT TO SEE THE PICTURES BIGGER, JUST CLICK ON THE PICTURE.



THIS IS BILL'S 1952 BSA "GOLDEN FLASH" BOBBER. THE GAS TANK IS FROM AN OLD 1950'S MUSTANG SCOOTER WITH "ROAD ROCKET"ON IT. SINCE I HAD NEVER HEARD OF A MUSTANG SCOOTER, I FIGURED A LOT OF YOU HADN'T EITHER. SO HERE IS TE LINK TO THE MUSTANG M/C CLUB OF AMERICA:  http://mmcoa.org

THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE BSA. BILL SAYS THE FRONT BRAKE IS ROUGHLY A 5" DRUM AND THE REAR BRAKE IS ROUGHLY A 7" DRUM. HE ALSO SAYS YOU CAN DRAG YOUR FEET (FLINTSTONE STYLE) AND STOP THE BIKE FASTER THAN IF YOU HIT THE BRAKES

 I TOLD BILL I WAS GOING TO USE MY PAINT SHOP AND BLOCK OUT HIS TAG NUMBER BUT HE SAID TO LEAVE IT IN. SO, I DID. BY THE WAY, THE TAILLIGHT IS FROM A 1932 CHEVY. YOU CAN CHECK THIS LINK AND SEE THAT IT IS ACTUALLY THE RIGHT TAILLIGHT: www.1932chevrolet.com/roadster.htm

NOW FOR SOMETHING I DIDN'T KNOW. THE STACKED RIFLES (RED) ON THE TIMING COVER ARE THE SYMBOL OF BSA. BSA STANDS FOR BIRMINGHAM SMALL ARMS CO. (ENGLAND).BSA HAS BEEN MAKING WEAPONS SINCE THE 1800'S AND ROLLED OUT THE FIRST BSA BIKE IN 1909. FOR THE HISTORY OF BSA, SEE THE FOLLOWING LINK: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Birmingham_Small_Arms_Company

THIS IS BILL AND HIS YOUNGEST, LANDON ON THE BOBBER. THE REAR END OF THE BOBBER IS CALLED A PLUNGER REAR END AND IT HAS TWO SPRINGS ON TOP OF EACH OTHER. BILL ALSO SAYS THE PISTONS ARE BORED OUT .040 OVER AND IT HAS A BSA "SPITFIRE" CAM. TO SEE THE SPITFIRE CAM CHECK OUT THIS LINK: http://www.srmclassicbikes.com/catalogue/index.php?target=products&product_id=79

ANOTHER PICTURE OF BILL & LANDON. I HAVE TO SAY THAT LANDON, IN MY OPINION LOOKS MORE LIKE GINA THAN BILL. GINA TELLS ME I AM THE ONLY ONE THAT SAYS THAT. (SORRY BILL) BILL TOLD ME THAT HE HAS ENTERED THE BSA  IN 3 TUCSON BIKE SHOWS AND HAS TAKEN 4 TROPHIES: 3 FIRST PLACE  AND 1 FIRST PLACE FOR FOREIGN CUSTOM. THAT IS ONE GOOD LOOKING BIKE, BILL. YA DONE GOOD.

FOR MORE ON THE BSA GOLDEN FLASH, SEE THIS LINK: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BSA_Golden_Flash  
THIS WILL CONCLUDE THIS POST.

I ENJOYED GETTING THE PICTURES AND DOING THIS POST FOR BILL. I WILL BE RIDING THE HARLEY TO TUCSON, NON-STOP IN THE SPRING 2012 AND IN ADDITION TO THE GOOD TIME WE ALWAYS HAVE WHEN WE GET TOGETHER, I ALSO WANT TO SEE IF I CAN GET THERE QUICKER ON THE HARLEY THAN I DID ON THE VULCAN IN 2008 & 2009. I THINK THAT MAY BE IN THE REALM OF A POSSIBILITY.
