My Cutter Head prototype

Anything goes! Inventors! Artists! Cutting edge solutions to old problems. But also non-commercial usage of record cutting. Cost- effective, cost-ineffective, nutso, brilliant, terribly fabulous and sometimes fabulously terrible ideas.

Is it made out of metal or plastic?
Does it have feedback?

Interested in sound samples and frequency curves...

All the best,

new update at my head prototype

Now I add a system for variable depth at the top of the head
it passes right through the torque tube without touching,
this is made with a tip of pencil but it can be changed easily by glass or ruby.
(the ball in the pen not scratch the material looking at microscopy this is a 0,3mm)

this stage on plastic prototype is finished successfully, now IM waiting for the
aluminum parts of the coils and the rest of the head to make a complete semi-pro version.

the size of the head now is more small.


sorry for my inglish.
