The Secret Society of Lathe Trolls

Wow! Looks Fabulous! Is that an Arduino Mega that you are controlling your stepper motors with? I've been exploring the Arduino world and have some UNO's on order to play with. How did programming go for you? This looks complicated for sure. I'm guessing each button control is for each cutting arm f...

Wanted to share some pics of the rare find from an estate sale recently. It's an LK-1 turntable from Audionics of Oregon. It has a Signet XK50 tonearm which alone was worth the $80 I paid for it. I believe it's the same as the Audio Technica AT-1000. The power plug and feet were missing and the meta...

Hey Trolls, It may have been posted here before, but I thought I'd share a great resource for old archived audio publications that I recently ran across. Very thorough for sure. It's World Radio History, there is a great section for Audio Engineers publications that is quite extensive. Really great ...

Hi Spiff, I'm learning too. The easiest route into cutting on a low budget I have found is starting out with a mono cutter to get familiar with the process. I have gone the route of portable Japanese cutters from the 80's. I started out with a Hara M-180 which I miraculously found for $20 as a junk ...

Still available, I spoke too soon.
Very nice head Brandon!

First is a Denon DP-1000 direct drive turntable I just received. Rebuilt before purchasing, runs like a dream. Just need to build a plinth for it now. Second was a ...

This Post inspired me to do some searching on the Googles... Just wanted to let you all know what I found and that there are escrow programs out there.

Thanks for the information.

Hello Everybody, I recently acquired a Hara HF-200 and while I'm relieved and happy that it rotates, head tracks and audio is AOK. It had a "thump, thump" in the rotation. 11ce263.png So I removed the head assembly and pulled the platter to find the idler wheel has a flat spot on it. About 2mm long ...

Hello Lathe Trolls,

I recently acquired a Hara M-180. I was hoping to find an operation manual for it. It's a fairly simple unit, but I want to make sure I know how to use it properly.

Thanks for your help...
