I saw the story first on Tracking Angle website then checked Agnew Analog page. A new lathe is designed from ground up and available for ordering. I wonder how does it perform against Neumann and Scully lahes.

The mechanical aspect is the smallest part of a lathe's sonic impact on a cut. The head and electronics are everything. I haven't seen what Jesus proposes or built for those parts of a cutting system. Cutter heads are tough to make; at least great ones are.
