So seems there are one or two "missing" based on that list. Anyone care to fill in the blanks? |

I'm not sure where the now defunct Master Cutting Room's lathe went |

BTW it looks like the incomplete spare lathe from Europadisk is well on it's way to being resurected. |

It was broken up. |

The lathe cabinet went to Korea to be used as a turntable. |

The rack is being rebuilt and the cutterhead is sitting on a shelf. |

Al is working on the rack? |

I edited the above post because I didn't realize you thought it went with the other one. There was no cutting rack with the spare and only one good cutterhead that was part of the complete package. The other cutterhead has been converted to a lacquer cutterhead. So I don't know what they plan on doing for a cutting rack and cutterhead. I know they are currently using a grampian. It would be pretty funny to have a grampian on a VMS-82. |

So a guy from the Ministry of Defence, of all places, borrowed one off Sean and reverse engineered it, and built us a new one...fun times! |

Kind of the equivalent of putting a 57 Strat behind glass instead of having some gifted musician make beautiful sounds with it. |
