The Secret Society of Lathe Trolls

There have been around 25 this year thus far on ebay. guessing more will be coming. I think there are two atm even.

There might be problems with heat though.
overheating the head as there would be no escape... yet that depends on usage.

interesting thought.

The bay is a tricky thing for sure. lots ov overpriced things yet for sure there are deals to be had too. as seen here... yes just the workmanship that went into this unit calls for a higher price. i think even a starting bid ov 2g wouldve been fair. p.s. fyi the web page has a mobile issue. when pr...

If at first you don't sell a RIDICULOUSLY over priced unit. Don't drop the price!!! Raise it another 1500 XD

such amusement...

What a steal!!!

I would imagine yes.
As the recording being projected
is mechanical. no air is needed.

Could be the cutting needle?
Is it fresh and installed probably?
Is yr head positioned correctly?
weight/depth correct etc.?

sounds like it could be these...

cheers

Are you trying to determin the shape ov a note? Still I think the variants due to the striking ov the note. which piano type or other instrument "type" & recording equipment used etc. etc. would cause variants. now electronicly produced waves/test record might be something you would find interesting...

P.s.

That is like decoding every finger print ever made an to be made. why does it form in a spiral? Science can "TRY" to define it. yet that it only tell you human perceptions. as been said. it is what it is due to the sound. the vibrations which cause the waves in the air "pressure". I could say hello ...

What determines the groove shape is the sound from which is projected, its tone/volume etc....

It doesn't make much sense, yet maybe their belief is that the documents are what brings up the price & nobody gets them, less they pay the full asking price. I could imagine someone thinking in those terms. Yet that's not to say it makes any sense. though how many human actions do? I once asked a s...

P.s.

Everything we sense is a vibration, reflection then perception...

Even humans perceive thing differently.
Both sight and sound...

Your questions might be better answered by Neurology...

cheers

Yes to ALL yr inquiries. :) Tis the same manner in which our ears move. like a speaker or microphone... just a different mechanical process. why & how this is the way sound works [in a waveform] can only be speculated yet is the manner in which WE perceive sound. other animals &/or "beings" perceive...

I guess what is new from the first listing is the addition ov so disks...

but oh geese that price jump is insane...

I hear you loud & Clear Steve...

I asked upon a model a member was selling here as I had never seen it... they never responded... *facepalm* i guess because i wasn't interested in buying it. (I thought it way overpriced) yet an interesting looking item for archives.

Well put indeed.
tis something which needs repeating
from time to time.

the Music/Art world...

cheers

This one looks even cleaner & with disks etc. hmmm...

Why not just have them supply $$$$$$$$$ to exp. / R&D

If they are serious...

I'm always amazed at the progresses and shear amount that you do. rock on Todd...
