Re: Laser cut records
OK, now I want one!
Not likely to cut playable grooves though.

As forum members know Austrian Company Rebeat Digital has an interesting project: (http://www.digitalmusicnews.com/2016/03/15/high-definition-vinyl-will-soon-become-a-reality/) Of course i don't know if Glowforge is better than their equipment. If it were, that would be great for record industry

It's a solution looking for a problem. Cutting the groove isn't the limiting factor.

some students have used a laser to etch grooves into a record
