Do you by any chance have a spec for cutter dimensions? I don't
suppose they just sharpen them up on an old bit of emery board. I'm
thinking particularly of the trailing edge. It can't be designed to
"get out of the way" quickly, as that would result in an unstable tool
that chattered, so there must be an angle there with enough meat to
support the cutting edge. i wonder if that is more limiting than a
playing stylus?

ahem Read next month's Hi Fi News. :-)

Update on the above topic.

The next issue of HFN is apparently a special 'annual' one and this means
the regular articles I have been writing have been pushed back to make
space for some other things. Also one of the 'special' articles may then
also extend over two months. So the LP ones probabaly won't appear for
another month or three. i.e. when the editor decides. :-) Hence the info I
was referring to may not turn up for a while in the mag.

Slainte,

Jim
