Welcome aboard Are you III at the Slutz? Or is it a coincidence
I am sure you will enjoy your stay here, a little more specific to cutting quite broad as there are a lot of cutters that use real early stuff and their input is quite interesting
Cheers

Dont know. You might ask why do I ask that question? Because VMS80 serial number 008 was "stolen" through fraud. Some guy in the Midlands UK bought it from Festival Records Australia and never paid for it. You might ask, "who would send a VMS80 overseas without seeing the money first?" but its true.Third wrote: i have no idea what the serial number is, where do i find it?, i've looked

Hi all,
I am new to this forum- which looks like fun!
I have a Westerex 3D head with the 1700 series electronics, set up on a Scully lathe. Its taken a bit to get the thing going- I had to create a belt (thanks to Len Horowitz for that) and I had a seized bearing which I got sorted out.
Then I had to set up the vacuum system. 3M made a portable vaccum for electronics technicians for servicing photocopiers. It seems like a perfect fit and it was cheap at the 3M employee store. Someone had jury rigged the heater circuit, so I set that up to run off the supply offered by the electronics. My plan is to set up a meter panel and a control so I can set the current- sounds like that will help keep noise down.
I'm almost ready to go, but with initial tests it seems that the threads want to advance the cutter a lot faster than I am used to seeing LPs advance! Under the platter is the pulley for the thread drive belt- its set on the smaller of the two settings. Do I need different threads?? or is there another way to slow down the advance- or am I imagining things??
Thanks
