Re: New: Phonocut Desktop Disc Cutter

So, what do we think? I think it sounds pretty good. I liked hearing the Neumann sample in there and I appreciate that they included the v.1.0 prototype as well.

Awesome. How thick is that biscuit? I've never seen a vinyl record that small. I dig it. Pocket size, like a business card.

Curious to know, if you don't mind sharing, is this the same lathe you had posted about selling a few days prior? Change of heart?
