audax rh5 diy repair assistance?

This is where record cutters raise questions about cutting, and trade wisdom and experiment results. We love Scully, Neumann, Presto, & Rek-O-Kut lathes and Wilcox-Gay Recordios (among others). We are excited by the various modern pro and semi-pro systems, too, in production and development. We use strange, extinct disc-based dictation machines. And other stuff, too.

of course i could make some pictures but i do not thing it would be any good for you. I did not a good job. but it works. when i got another cutter i just put audax aside. two things to mention is that you have replace rubber damping with some sort of rubber. when I tried silicon rubber of 1mm it seamed like it is not very firm as the high frequency went down at about 7-8 khz. when i took shrinkable isolation and made two layers on each side of damper where the rubber must go it got better. but then I stoped testing it. so that would be the start. maybe someone here can help you on that more.

anyway is is not a very big deal to fix that head.... i think ;)
