Hi,

I'd like to see a pic of your tat when it's done.

Just one proviso...this is not going to go on top of that other tube,is it?

What about a simple electronic triode symbol?

Pic on rq.

A couple of years ago I had a transistor symbol tattoo on my left forearm. Unfortunately the tattooist didn´t do a very good job so I covered it up later. For the last year I´ve been building with tubes instead so now I´m (too) thinking of a triode tattoo.

Should also mention that I´m not stealing anyones ideas here, since ìve had this in mind for quite some time.(long before I read this thread) Can´t think of anything lower than stealing someones tattoo

something looking like a technical drawing of a valve would even suffice... the simpler the better.

I'm just trying to get some ideas for a new tattoo. If you've got something that would be cool, please post
thanks,

The one of the chick straddling the valve....cool idea, but i dont think that valve could look more like a sex toy.

While i'm all for the notion of girls straddling just about anything, this one i'm going to have to nix.

The RCA on the left side of the above picture is exactly what i am looking for. Thank you
