air mounts

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.

air mounts

Currently my Fairchild lathe is on casters (which is what it came with) but as the floors in my studio are just hardwood with little isolation, and I'm close to a 4 lane street with heavy traffic I know I'm going to have to pull the lathe off of the casters do some additional isolation. My tech thought the best solution rather than building a platform was just to get some air mounts for each of these legs.

I'm looking for something that can handle the 200+ lbs weight of the cabinet, excellent low frequency rejection, that can be height adjusted to allow for easy leveling, and hopefully isn't that expensive (although I don't need or plan to cheap out on this).

Any suggestions for something that fills the above requirements is appreciated!!!
