Are you turning those cactus shafts on a lathe and polishing them or are they in their natural state? They look amazingly straight and round.
Joseph, you're right, I make a cantilever of the size I need from a cactus needle. The material is very easy to process and polish. |

Satin M-14   I love all Satins, especially M-15L. I heard about the existence of M-21P and M-18ВP, but never held them in my hands. |

The simplicity of the design has its advantages - accuracy. I was amazed by the phasing of the channels, it is beyond praise.    |

The magnets in AT's mm styli are positioned just like that. Regards, Anwesh |

Similarities with AT are definitely visible. But you must agree that this is an original solution. The Alnico magnet is closed at the bottom of the cartridge and does not lose its strength during maintenance and repair of the cartridge.    |
