And are they of the same quality? I've read somewhere Souri's blanks were from Bayer.

Re: Scully lathe in Portugal

I have a ton of gear from the 80's that was kept well. Very little has had to be done to these items. They work like champs. Yeah, i know what you mean. I have a Revox A77 mk4 that is still working very well! Anyway, where can i find some manuals / schematics about this Scully? I'll try to talk wit...

Re: Scully lathe in Portugal

I have no idea why you would say that. It look like it was very well taken care of. I've seen ones in a horrible state. That one looks great. Of course I can't see any of the internals or the back. But, what is pictured looks fantastic. As far as restorations are concerned, it doesn't seem like thi...

Re: Scully lathe in Portugal

I guess it could, but i'm sure it will need too much investment.
Anyone know how much could it be worth?

Re: Scully lathe in Portugal

It's not in use anymore. It's exposed at a record shop in Lisbon. It was from an old label called Orfeu from Porto. The record shop where it's now exposed is also called Orfeu. The person whom i talked to about it says it doesn't work, but judging by the photos it's in good aesthetic shape.

Re: Rev 2 of my DIY Stereo Cutterhead

Well, made some progress this week. I believe my recording head is done, except for the cones, the rods, and the stylus mount. Shouldn't be too hard, but I don't yet have the super-duper $300 ruby cutting stylus yet. Not sure when I will have one. Need to find an alternative. For now, I will be wor...
