Hey everyone, I just launched http://www.RecordLatheParts.com, which is a site to sell, uhhh... record lathe parts. I will be eventually putting up lathes, cutter heads, additional supplies, etc as I get them going, but for now we've got:

Sapphire Embossing Styli (long and short shank)
Presto 6n/8n Feedscrews
CD-Record adapters (allows you to center a CD on a turntable spindle)
Presto 6d/"Presto Recorder" Feedscrews

If you've bought some of these things from me in the past, please leave a review in this thread. Thanks! Mike.

Ok. Sorry about that. I think it will work. Try again.

If you are outside of the US, Please let me know if it doesn't work. I'm not seeing any international payment options in there. (this is why I prefer 1940s technology).

Got 3 sapphires from Mike few mnths ago to give embossing another try. Still on my 1st styli after 40 +cuts. I like the fact that i dont really have to change the cutting weight too much as i change from cutting with myshank diamonds to embossing ,just a very slight leanback angle,much less then embossing with the tungsten cones.Worked great on pc,and petg and myshank blanks.
The sound? I think its deffinitely an upgrade from the tungsten but slightly less volume and overall fidelity than cutting with diamonds. Great option to have when i want to do a less critical,lofi sounding record with that vintage vibe,and i can prolong the cutting hrs of my diamond styli by using it more for some music that demands a higher quality sound,certain kinds of music just doesnt translate aswell with embossing,but alot does!
Maximum respect,
Patrick
