Re: KNOP lathe DIY build
A smooth motion would not be a big issue for me since I would just use the knob to position the cutter head at the beginning of the record. I keeped an eye on THK sliders for some time I'm thinking to buy on, but first I'd like to know if the carriage movement is really smooth and precise. Is the st...

Re: KNOP lathe DIY build
Hello KNOP, nice and very clean work! Can you tell me the sizes of the aluminium profiles you used for your lathe? Another question... I know that the kind of THK slider you used has a kind of rod that comes out from the back of the stepper motor. Can you attach some kind of wheel knob to it to manu...

Re: Who can help me with my VR T560 cutterhead?
Hi cosmO_O, I have some questions for you. Where does the sapphire stylus come from? Where can I buy a good and cheap one for testing? What are those "cones" behind the drivers, connected by the 2 rods? I know they should have the same function they have in Sauri's vinylrecord, but I figure out what...

Re: Steel-Stylus - noisy days
@Andrea: In the pictures it seems, they are grinded like a drill. Only one edge will cut. They made for rotation, or I'm wrong? Fat Yes, they are made to rotate, but I'm not sure if there is one edge sharper than the other one because of this, or if it's due to the manufacturing. Anyway I'll give i...

Hi Bryan, I'm following this thread since a long time, and I'd like to thank you for all the culture you are spreading with your updates. Your work will help me a lot as reference to build my cutting head, and I'd like to ask you why you chose 3mm as push rods diameter, and how this size affects the...

Hello, I'm glad to be one of you!
Hello, I'm Andrea and I'm an italian filmmaker, but I studied electronics and telecommunication. I discovered this forum a few months ago surfing the web in search of information to build the DIY lathe cutter I'm dreaming of since I a child. Am I the only italian troll here? I hope there are others....
