Re: just look this fine unit....artfull
Nice! For archival purposes, I'm attaching the photo to the thread. Links disappear over time.
This rings a bell, and maybe it has been discussed here before.
Ah ha! yes, indeed, here's the original thread. Its maker posts here as "folk":

One thing I wonder about is the torque of a belt driven TT. How well is that working? I know Flo set up his 6N to be belt-driven.
Here is a link to the original external article:
http://folktek.com/instruments/unfit/record-lathe
Record Cutter (Lathe) constructed by me (Arius Blaze). The plinth (box) and top panel are creamy and delicious walnut with oak splines, DB meter to check incoming level, heated stylus with milla-amp meter and adjustment control, stand-off motor with adjustable belt tension, built-on heat lamp, rek-o-kut cutterhead assembly with freshly re-wound Audax cutterhead, cork covered platter, antique silver ins and connections and all cloth covered cables.
First cuts have proven successful.
This will be used in the production of short run record releases for my upcoming label "Folktek Records" - be on the lookout.
Piece by Arius Blaze.
Release date: 01-19-2012
Price: N/A
