Where are people located? For meeting up and/or classes

This is where record cutters raise questions about cutting, and trade wisdom and experiment results. We love Scully, Neumann, Presto, & Rek-O-Kut lathes and Wilcox-Gay Recordios (among others). We are excited by the various modern pro and semi-pro systems, too, in production and development. We use strange, extinct disc-based dictation machines. And other stuff, too.

Hi! I'm wondering where people are around the country that I could maybe visit to see what you do and how to get into vinyl cutting myself. Or does anyone do classes?

I'm located in Western Colorado (Durango), so looking for people around here (Denver, Grand Junction, etc.) or maybe near Seattle/Western Washington. Anyone?

I also thought it might be useful for folks to share this in general for others.

I've been going to Durango and Ouray since I was a kid! Love that area! I do classes in Tucson (www.lathecutcamp.com) and we used to have a yearly Record Cutters Gathering in Ouray, which sort of died out during Covid. MEEP Records is in Denver, and I sold a lathe to someone in Saguache a while back.
