Hello Everybody,

It is true the shaver was originally made for 4 mintues recording outfits but, no aspect of it's design prevents it from being used for a blank that you intend to record two minutes on. The recording and playing time makes no difference when it comes to shaving

I think the single blade design might just be too much for the softer 2 minute cylinders.

I think you have right. Because i have broke 2 cylinders... :cry: (2 reproduction of Paul Morris).
But i think the blade is to hard.
Thanks for your information

Dear Sir,

I don't want to make auction. I know the functionement of the Yankee Trader. I forgot the little word "INQUIRE". But, seriously, i don't know the real value so i prefer that a honnest person give to me a honnest offer. It is simple.
