1. Use clean, sterile materials (see note below), put on a paper mask and gloves. 2. Mix until clear: about 7/8 quart vodka, 1 tablespoon glycerine, and 1 tablespoon propylene glycol. 3. In blender or jar that fits on blender, add an inch or two of powdered pigment and stir in enough liquid from step 2 to create a slurry. 4. Blend on a low speed for about 15 minutes, then on a medium speed for an hour. If you are using a jar on the blender, release pressure buildup every fifteen minutes or so. 5. Use a baster to siphon ink or pour it through a funnel into ink bottles. You may add a sterile marble to each bottle to aid in mixing. 6. Store the ink away from sunlight or fluorescent lighting, since ultraviolet radiation will alter some pigments. 7. Keeping track of the amounts of liquid and powdered pigment will help you make consistent batches and improve your technique. 8. You can use smaller amounts of glycerine and propylene glycol, but probably not larger amounts. Too much glycerine will make the ink oily and too much glycol will form a hard shell on top of the ink. 9. If you are not conversant with aseptic techniques, don't make your own ink!

If your too cheap to get a $6.50 bottle of tattoo ink then you can buy the powder mix and mix your own. You need a blender to mix it properly. Be safe and either buy the 1 ounce bottle of ink for $6.50 or mix your own from the proper materials. You can find them for sell online at just about any tattoo supply company.
