will this work?

Thanks Markrob I will do it that way. Two questions. just to be sure: 1) About the 180 Watt Pure Sine Power Inverter with USB Port by AIMS this should be output 120 Volts ac right? output 220 will not work? (theres plenty of them at my country) 2) About the 12Vdc powersupply I found at my country: h...

thanks all of you for your answers. I think I wont buy it. Seems I will be working on my computer and send songs right to the record cutter after EQ and edition on adobe audition. So, when a preamp is required in recording with a lathe? Just when you record directly to the record cutter? I mean just...

so the better idea should be to use a shaft adapter or to change idlers right? About the idlers...I noticed 78rpm are smaller than 33rpm. so if this will run slower at 50hz I will need to reduce the idlers size I have, for them to run faster and run at right speed?

now this says 220V
2.1 MFD

this seems to be a fuse camera due to in the metal part it reads: 3A 125V

3 amps OK but 125 volts? is because it is from the US?
