The Secret Society of Lathe Trolls

Keep this thread alive. Ive got a pestle and mortar going 24/7 grindin up old Lps into powder. Where my dreamers at?

Kunaki offers this already at a ridiculous price but hey its available. I swear its someone from this board.

Hello, I was curious what everyone thought of the 3in record? Looks like they are lathe cuts. Do you think this will only be a Crosley thing or will other manufacturers pick up on it? Anyone know who makes them? Also, I tried to do a cut on 3in CDR but my lathe(ROK M5) won't go that small, so that r...

yeah, I want a stereo cutter head as well. I swear if someone buys one for me I will cut cheap dubs, no problem. Ive spent over ten years saving and scraping shit together to even attempt this hobby. never thought about begging for it from folks wanting the same thing.

Many thanks markrob! In theory it seems like it would work. Would you actually try it with your own gear if you were me? Im still a noob at all of this

I dont know the difference between 8A and 8b but I just posted the schematic for an 8A in schematics section. cheers

My small contribution. Stolen from Ebay

No this isnt a link to a porn....Lol Curious if it is possible to run two 8 ohm cutterheads (presto 1d & Audax) with a Rekokut R8a amp? On the back of the amp there is a 16 ohm output, could I run them parallel off the amp?

Much respect to those that contribute to this board.

Thanks! Will investigate.I thought with the thread title it might help others.

The search engine sucks or I am a retard.
Please share for this newbie what vacuum system to use, quality over price. Don't care about a plastic aquarium pump conversion. Need something pro and feel like I am wasting time navigating the site.

Do you have a needle on your playback arm?

Thanks Techie. That has helped me narrow it down. I still don't know what it looks like, and I don't want to play 78's. Does anyone think this might work for playback even though it says it for 45 playback? http://www.needles4jukeboxes.com/IMG_4032.JPG

At the very least does anyone have a picture of one of theirs?

Hello folks, Anyone know the model# for the Audax playback arm on a Presto K8? Do you know of a place to purchase a needle besides eBay? The numbskull I bought the lathe from had left both needles installed when he shipped it. I have no clue what the playback needle looks like. Really appreciate thi...

Alright I now have a 210 feedscrew. I have a 120 lpi if interested(doubt it)

i have an m-5(16") that has 120 O.I leadscrew. I want a 180. Can figure out how to get the screw out, without breaking it. I have a machinist friend that might be able to make one for me. Anyone have suggestions for me?

thanks for the heads up on this post. I live in wichita and salina is an hour or so away. Salina has a converted church that mostly host blues music festivals but is also a recording studio and of course has a bad ass neumann lathe(which when I saw it looked a little dusty to me). Kansas doesnt have...
