Where to buy blanks?

Post by EdisonWizard »

Since paul is out of commission for a while, does anyone know where I can get a few blanks? Maybe even some moldy ones or old dictation cylinders? I'm itching to try my shaver and my new recorder coming in! I want to practice enough so when my boy has his party I can record as much as I like of his 1st birthday and all the people there on Cylinders for fun.

You could use cut and shaven dictaphone blanks, but they were made to be played only once or twice, so they don't last long. But if you want something to record to for fun, that'd be it.

Yeah that would be good too. Can't seem to find any though. I thought you could get more out of them than that...quite unfortunate.
