The Secret Society of Lathe Trolls

Just posted on eBay so contact me ASAP if you are interested.

Hi guys! I have simply not enough time in the day to continue "lathing". That being said I need to sell my very rare Presto 8C. This item was bought last year from Mike Dixon of LatheCuts.com. The unit was completely overhauled as as well as the Presto 1D cutting head. Attached are details and the a...

thank you!

Here is a video and photo of my latest creation. LOTS of trial and error.

I suggest this one and here is why. https://www.amazon.co.uk/MICHELL-Michell-Turntable-Clamp/dp/B00AISN3BW If you want to cut closer to the center of your blank, you can unscrew the top and replace the round black puck with a certain size nut and use that just like the clamp and not take up so much ...

Mine comes from the back like this:

Nice.. yeah I have a 45rpm adapter and having a new screw made for micro groove since we could not figure out the complicated pulley system. I have a vacuum plate but no clue how to connect it etc. I will probably PM you. thanks!

Drove for 14 hours each way to pick up this beauty this weekend... Upgraded from a K8 to a 8C... apparently a prototype and only two known to exist. http://i1202.photobucket.com/albums/bb361/yourbedhead/Lathe/IMG_2557_zpshdsyoecy.jpg http://i1202.photobucket.com/albums/bb361/yourbedhead/Lathe/IMG_25...

Put a bead of Bondic material around the same sanded portions. (Except for a small opening) Great idea there. UV cured ...

Sorry, trade secret. No, here is what I did: 1. Cut my poly sheet into two round pieces 2. Sanded the edge and around the hole lightly where my bonding material will go on one side of both pieces. 3. Put a bead of Bondic material around the same sanded portions. (Except for a small opening) 4. Laid ...

Anyone know why the YOUTUBE2 code does not work?

I recorded before, would hate to put all that together and have a bad cut. Joined two together except for just a small opening, filled then sealed the remaining hole.

This is a proof of concept I just did for a liquid filled lathe-cut record. This will be for my record label's record club. The band is named "Bloody Knives" hence the red liquid. ;) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lHazrCUbLTM http://i1202.photobucket.com/albums/bb361/yourbedhead/Lathe/IMG_2141_zpsw...

are the edges perfectly smooth?

Just once then you can bend and break on the seam. Just be careful not the overland and warp the PC. I suggest the .30 over the thicker material.
