Installing new stylus on vinylrecorder

[The Shank]

But I belive that you don't know this : http://www.indiamart.com/sonitools/diamond-plates.html#diamond-stylus-cutter

The producer of there stylus is Sonitools, India.

Yes I know him very well, this guy Malay, make synthetic diamonds but can't do stylus for cutting... No knowledge about that and only failed with test. He kept this article because I'm in touch with him and knows I can do some if he gets some requests. We talk together every weeks.

And about boron nitride ? Seems be very hard this material...

where I can find long shank sapphire or ruby (not diamond because I am EMBOSSING) styli besides Apollo (preferably in the states)?

I personally don't know of anyone besides Apollo who sells new ruby/sapphire stylus in the US.

I can have them made. With burnishing facets. But, no one would pay the price. Since I'm not also selling a lot of lacquers to offset the subsidizing of styli, They would cost closer to what it actually costs to produce them which is more than you pay for a new one from Apollo.

Yes, you pay less to Apollo for a stylus than it costs to make.
