Hi! Please see photos. Main rotating components are Presto K8 K10. This has a ROK transformer and an unknown (to me) overhead.

Hello Lathetrolls! I have a Presto K8 for sale. Everything works and I’ve used this unit to emboss on polycarbonate. I’ve even cut some old recordio-type blanks with a cutting needle.

Two black wires are going to a Brush Crystal Cutter head.

Is this designed to take a ‘regular’ 8 Ohm signal and make it Crystal-head friendly?

Thanks for the response.

On the ‘red wire’ side there is COM, then a pair for 8 Ohm, then a pair for 500 Ohm.

On the ‘black wire’ side, it says CUTTER.

Good day Trolls! I hope you, your family and friends are well… I’m mostly familiar with Presto K8, but have recently received a cutter with a ROK T-45 box that I am unfamiliar with. Would you happen to have info on what this box does? I see a 500 Ohm and 8 Ohm pair of connects on the top side in the...

I recently had a distortion issue with my 1C. I sent it to Mike and he worked some magic and it is as good as ever.

Alexdw5- Here are a few photos of a K8 ‘opened up’ as you were considering... No need to remove the playback arm or the cutting arm; they should stay affixed to the metal ‘table’. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20190919/7e082eae41970ade3a2e5a148b14ca72.jpg https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20190919...
