The Secret Society of Lathe Trolls

Hi,

check Magnetic Fidelity: https://www.magneticfidelity.com/

a few words for anyone thinking about this head so head is mounted to my sondisko lathe and i did some test cuts .. its phenomenal !!! the sound compared to my sondisko is obviously a HUGE increase... there was still some surface noise, but after talking to mike @piaptk and adjusting the back angle...

Did you ever though about getting a stampers and make records instead of blanks?

I make mine on glossy photo water resisting paper printing with ink-jet photo printer and they look great. I had a big order that wanted custom shaped labels so I bought a plotter and this brought the opportunity to test with whatever I have in the local shops. Curious to try with matte paper but wi...

So in best case we need some oil that does not get affected by the temperature?

Hello trolls! Is anyone interested in Technics SP-15? The TT has enough torque to cut whatever you wish. I'm cutting mostly loud and bassy hip-hop with fat drums and it works great. I have no actual reason to sell it, I'm happy with it, it's just I have a great deal on SP-10 so thought someone else ...

after your music program ends continue by hand to turn the black wheel in the same direction until you reach the position close to the label. while you are turning the black wheel switch off the overhead motor. when you reach the desired position of the locked groove stop turning the wheel and wait ...

That looks great! Congratulations! Would you share the exact model of the motor and the driver? I've powering the overhead of my lathe with stepper motor and would like to try 'the proper way'. I remember this was somewhere on the forum but cant find it now

the guy's username here is opcode66 but as far as i know no longer on the forum. search also for 'deep grooves mastering'

A couple of quick questions for the 'stepper brain trust' if I might. In the cases cited here, is the stepper coupled directly to the leadscrew, or is there either a gear train or belt between the motor and the load? Also, regarding those Zeelo 'vibration dampers,' do they simply isolate motor vibr...

Souri's pump looks exactly the same but all marks cleared.

Thank You!
Then I'll order one and test it. I'll start small - with 80 m³/h and 370W

Good luck! Please let us know what are the results after that.

As I understand this is the cylinder that goes inside this bearing?

Another part ID for you: the clutch bearing inside the brass housing is a INA HF0406 Needle Roller Clutch 4x8x6mm

Thanks handcut!

Due to language barrier Im not sure I understand where this exactly fits. Is it right next to the black wheel and you see it after the wheel is removed?

Thanks,
Bob

Has anyone seen this?

I love how it looks like he is making the records in his living room. Definitely worths trying!

Bob

Impressive ideas guys! Looks like this is a great candidate for mods! The same happened with Numark PT01 and the world exploded Good job!

contact them on instagram, @myshank_diamonds

I've tried to order a couple of times and the last reply I got was 'we will prepare your invoice' and then nothing for one year.

I think that if you are sure you want to cut instead of emboss then go directly to cutting. If you go to embossing first you will spend time and money to learn it until the moment you want to switch to cutting and then you have to start to learn again. I was browsing the forum for a couple of years ...
