It’s in France, not in the us...

And if you want fast delivery, get in touch with a producer directly....not a reseller.

Re: VR T560 head weight/dashpot adjustment issue

Check the spring around the dashpot, it starts to be maybe tired or not in his place. 45g to 50g for the counterweight. And check if the daspot is free of move on his brass cylinder

Re: Souri doesnt manufacture VR anymore?

Re: New cutter problem with VR :(

I think "pararell-to-the-blank cuttrhead" is a myth with dynamic cutterhead. Diamond stylus gets its movement from speaker coil attachment, so the angle has nothing to do with that. bullshit! By standing the head parallel or with a small angle is a best for the stone... The crystal lattice of a dia...
