The Secret Society of Lathe Trolls

I made a donation myself. Good call, Mike. Thanks to Steve and all the trolls who I constantly learn things from.

I am looking at purchasing Souri's lathe as well- Does he still make you come to Germany or does he now have an American rep? You still must travel to Germany and train on the unit. I just purchased a T560 from him in November of 2019 so he is definitely still active. Great machine. Souri is a grea...

That is a pretty big topic to hope to be solved in one thread. However, there are a lot of previous threads on this forum about operating a k8 and general cutting and testing methods. Use the search button to search for k8. Also search for the newbie starter guide i wrote. It will answer a lot of q...

Thank you so much for your advices! briefly, - Herr Souri is a very specific person), he don't give concrete answer since january...(so I ask T560 at the forum). Well..., so of cause I'll hope and wait when Herr Souri "come down from his Olympus" and answer something. - The variant to search on tra...

are there no alternative and real proposals? (((( is it realy wait for offers...or search everywhere&anywhere? You can: *Contact Souri directly *Wait for one to become available secondhand via the forums/reverb/interwebs *Build your own *Go with a different, non-stereo lathe (of which there are man...

Ok, thank you Discomo, for clarification. In fact, it was the first time, that I saw on the VR website that an angle of 0 degrees ist recommended to be best. I had a look at my handwritten notes from the training in late 2018: the angle shall be approx. 10 degrees. I fully agree that the cutting an...

Noises exist from the fact that the groove speed controller is also powered by the heater stylus power. If you see my thread on self powering them, POOF.. The sounds are gone. . Interesting. Can you give a link to this thread? Thanks. Looks like you use a computer ATX power supply (12v plug) and co...

Not sure if it is the same thing:

I have had this happen as well. Super, super intermittent. Unfortunately, I do not know the cause or solution. I'd love to find out what the actual deal is.

Hope this helps. I don't even use the little pot he sent. Shrugs.

I have a Reitschle VTE-8 rotary pump which I love. Pretty quiet and very strong suction. Came from Souri but not a side-channel blower.

The dimensions and function of the T560 are very well adapted in combination with the SL1200. Can anyone say what needs to be modified to use the T560 with the SP10 -only height adjustment of the cutterhead or further modifications? Thank you I can't speak to the SP-10 specifically aside from knowi...

Nice Wu shirt!

Good work.

The adapters allow the lamps to work on 110V? Or does it still require a transformer?
