Anyone making Souri Vinyl Recorder Style Torque Tubes?

[leemichael]

Building a temporary stereo head for testing purposes and need some tubes.

I have everything else to build a head ready to go.

Anyone made or able to make?

Thanks

are these holes conical? on neumann SX68/74 heads, this hole is conical, so the stylus just sits in there,
with a little pressure. the cone is 1:20, the spec sheet is still online:

Thanks Andy, yes they are.
Thanks for the info. Might see if I can get some machined.

Hi

I make cutting heads similar to T560.. Here's the part I make...

Neo V1 Build (105).jpg

They have a straight tube, then I use a tiny round file to slightly taper the edge of the opening and get it to exact size,
If this would suit yours ? (the ones I make now are chunkier where the shank mounts)

I'm in New Zealand though so would take time to make and send... when I get some spare time

Cheers
