The Secret Society of Lathe Trolls

yes yes, very nice indeed!

I just hope this will become annual (without "almost") event to meet all you freaks once a year... at least

The pussies are great! ...and dave too of course!

no, man! You're no the only one who cares about that! I also noticed that. usually these are the presses with single coloured labels, labels are off center... I can somehow recognise the bootleg... at least those obvious ones. otherwise as subkontrabob wrote: its better to find someone to make you p...

about the quality / performance / personal issues / other stuff almost everything was said just use the "search" function.

If you'll use 1200MKII you will have flutter regardless of the system. Precision plate solves that.

@opcode66
why exactly it wouldn't be wise to record to tape and then to disc?

25k € ???? WOW!

last time I saw VMS80 for sale it went for 60k GBP!

You probably know this but anyway... after typing all the keywords in the "search" box you choose "Search for all terms" option and you get exactly what you are searching for. here are two results: Souri's "vinylrecorder" machine https://lathetrolls.com/viewtopic.php?t=1167&highlight=vinylium+vinylr...

so... I had to drill the screw cap off. with a drilling machine, very slowly, taking the filings wth a small magnet.
but I did it and everything is working properly now.
yeeeee!!!

I think this is taken from "Studio One Story" movie...

It is indeed caribbean, more precisely jamaican.

I think Summerjam in Cologne is still the biggest in europe...... :wink: in a way you're right because this year it will be 25th edition of Summerjam and "only" 17th of Rototom Sunsplash... ...but if you see how many days it lasts and how many visitors come: Sunsplash 2009 - around 150.000 (10 days...

I see the only solution is the screw extractor...

I guess I'll finish tomorrow.

Maybe this is funny question but I'll ask anyway... Today I wanted to change my SL1200 Technics' tonearm. Maybe I was uncareful or there was some preexisting damage. The problem is I destroyed the cap of the screw for the tonearm bearnig mechanism. One screw went out smoothly but I've stucked with t...

I don't know about the spring but I think the round disc (you painted the disc and the pot blue) should fit INTO the dash pot. You fill the pot with oil and it works as damping system. maybe then the mistery of the spring solves by itself... maybe not, you'll see. about the tension I don't know. hop...

aha, that makes sense as I have 8D.

sorry for the confusion!

Presto has a special clutch where you set the rotation of the feedscrew.

I don't think you have inside-out and outside-in feedscrews.
Maybe some other company but not Presto.

hmmmmm.... maybe.... but its soooo far....

Nice!

You lucky bastards! This year you (Spain) will host the biggest reggae festival in Europe - Rototom Reggae Sunsplash... lucky lucky you...

for me... like markrob said: short shank style for Grampian head.

I'm looking forward!

emmmm...
I'm Bancho... but anyway...

It's nice to see you managed to pimp it! Well done!

WOW!
