The Secret Society of Lathe Trolls

i think there is need to investigate the difference between incadenscent lamp and IR. I haven't done any tests but at the moment i use incandescent lamp. This is for light that I need and it heats... i heard that some materials does not take that heat as good as others. this is what wiki says. I thi...

interesting idea but it could be done better. i see it as it was just a design of cutting peaces of vinyl not the music itself. maybe they could do something more realistic in sounds than totally unknown results.

nice try...

hey everything is possible. nothing extraterrestrial. Humans created lathes and stylus. You just need some equipment which is expensive and of course some knowledge and working skills and you are good to go. :) There are too few specialists and manufacturers of record cutting equipment and accessori...

thanks for sharing. very interesting to see what was offered before.

Hey

ok.. then maybe someone can help me with used saphire cutters for tests? I just ran out of stock did some stupid mistakes lately. thanks god that it wasnt new diamond.

Hi

would like to buy one saphire stylus with neuman shank. I know I can order from blanx-uk but the shipping is 30 pounds to Lithuania for one stylus. It is too expensive for me to do some test cuts.

Can anybody share with me one stylus? Best would be from EU

Dovilis

that is really a shame. I have found that a lot of listeners really use concords night club. But why???? They are not like dj's or smth... but they use it... maybe they get it when they buy technivs 1210 or similar model. What I remember that testes was done with concorde on laquers. With normal hif...

oh my god. that is one true machine. Very good looking. Should work nice like it looks.

one thing is that it seams to me the overhead system is not horizontally flat or it is just a picture distortion here.

yep very nice. make your own machine. make your own standards. produce YOUR standard and then puff.... play hide and seek. very nice...

of course i could make some pictures but i do not thing it would be any good for you. I did not a good job. but it works. when i got another cutter i just put audax aside. two things to mention is that you have replace rubber damping with some sort of rubber. when I tried silicon rubber of 1mm it se...

i have got blown mine. it was h-4 audax. the problem was that the support was holding on very old rubber. it just stopped cutter to vibrate. First I didn't knew that and gave too much power like you did. rewinded by myself without any problem to 8 ohm's. changes the rubbers I had. The sound went up ...

Hey

this is a very nive effort. I would add some too. Depends on the price tag.

I have discussed this with Flo and it was quite high. So I am into making some by myself. and I am almost there. Just do not have time for this at the moment.

Will write here any results.

yep. page 201

thank you very much. it is worth waiting.

hey i remember i have read in the red book about finding the right angle. the aluminum tools were used. it has to be the height of a stylus with the conical shank as stylus and with a bar is couple of cm long. It should lay down on the plater and thats how you get 90 degrees. i don't know if I am cl...

hey

Flo, it would be great to get the schematics for this preamp

hey very nice things you have done. congrats. about fuse I think here is an answer: https://lathetrolls.com/viewtopic.php?t=2483&highlight=protection+fuse&mforum=lathetrolls btw, i am confused about fuse usage. not on the presto cutter but on ortofon ds522. it says that this head should not exceed 2...

what is the general price for this kind of lathe?
I am on tight budget but would like yo get something like presto 6n or similar in europe.

yep. I asked him a year ago, and the only answer was - This is avalible only to registered users.

then i wrote that i want to register. hehe

never got the answer

hey, i have some very old russian made flexis. light blue in color. if you really want to hear I can probably rip to mp3 or similar to listen to. all flexis that i have are used... most of them from the magazines and books. i have one red colored from the book about space where Yuri Gagarin is lifti...
