Evidently, somebody in Japan has brought out a disk cutter for the home. Can a revival of the Recordio Disk company be far behind?

Good Grief- NO! A loudspeaker voice coil coupled to a incisor rod of some type ? A sonic abomination !

Re: Return of the home record cutter
Well this is the Victrola forum; what we call awesome is pretty much everyone else's idea of a "sonic abomination" too.
The little Gakken machine sounds better than their last one (which was a front-mounted windup machine.) I'm glad records are getting more popular.

Probably could be made to run at 78, but steel playback needles would cut the discs to ribbons.dzavracky wrote:Interesting! I wonder if it could be modified to make 78's

I’ve got an electric turntable, but even then I’m sure they don’t sound good
