The Secret Society of Lathe Trolls

Hey all,

Im putting together a list of all the Scully lathes still out there.

So far I’ve tracked down 55, with 48 of those verified and cataloged.

Confident I haven’t foubd them all yet.

If I haven’t contacted you yet please reach out, I would love to chat.

Thanks—Steph

I won't buy anything from this forum from someone I don't already know IRL

Sample size of one

Hey all, looking for any information on the ultimate disposition of the above referenced Scully lathes.

Any information appreciated, please DM - it will not be shared publicly

Thanks--Steph

Update: Flo FTW, all covered.

Flo is uncertain he has chips to make me one, anyone have one of these to sell?

Thanks—Steph

Anyone have one of these they want to part with?

Many thanks

I have a decent stash of original cloth belts, marsh little squiggle symbol marshmastering dot com if you want to chat

I've got a 2b that I've been looking for a reason to mount on my Scully...but I want to put together a separate mono cutting rack for it first.

Marsh Mastering / The Lathe Room Los Angeles, CA Scully 501 w Pitch 18 ('The Doll Lathe' - full overhaul in 2018) 2 x 3DII, 1 x 3DIIA, 1 x 2B Mono Westrex 1700 rack (full rebuild of all components w/ Horowitz mods, added depth input) Maselec/EAR/Inward Connections cutting room chain 2 x Studer A80RC...

Looking for a spare 1700 rack to experiment with - can be an A or an original and it doesn't have to work, complete would be nice.

...and yes -I know Kim has that one up on ebay again but that price is bonkers IMO and I don't need the head

Anybody got one gathering dust?

Was contact by a friend with a restored 601/1700 setup he's getting ready to list for sale. System is currently fully-functional and operating privately in the UK, not in a commercial space. This is a full-OG resto so original belt drive platter/feedscrew motor, no automated pitch computer (it's man...

One of my 3D heads came without the box, would love to get the proper Westrex train case for it one of these days should anyone encounter one.

Looks like Carl Rowatti is selling a 1574 rack, Haeco SC-2 head and a Haeco suspension on ebay for anyone interested

Manual lift-drop head suspension for head with westrex style tailpiece. Includes complete adjustable spring tension, drop lever and dashpot assembly as pictured. The main block appears to be machined for mounting an auto lift-drop, not certain though. I recently replaced this on my lathe with an aut...

Nothing that I know of at this time but I'll keep me ear open. the only mothballed lathe I know of in LA is the old precision VMS80 which I don't think Marcussen ever got going again. Certainly there are others better informed than me on here though.

Hi Folks - long time lurker, first time poster. Anyone out there looking to step-up to all-analog cutting or maybe in need of a spare? I'm primarily a digital mastering engineer here in Los Angeles but, I also rebuild/restore Studer tape machines. To that end......... I'm currently re-working on a p...
