    World's First laser-cut wooden LP.

    Pretty cool! Sounds like shit.... but pretty cool still none-the-less.

    Cool, but sounds horrible. Can't be good for the stylus either.

    That first record was awfully warped too.

    I'm not sure where 3d printing comes into play though, since you can't 3d print wood. Now 3d printing a vinyl (or plastic) record, would probably yield better results than wood.

        I'll have to check the video when I get home and see how it sounds! Probably better than wood!

          Having been an extremely frugal music listener-mainly due to financial reasons-it has been difficult throughout the years to satisfy my want of good sound. I've typically either bought used gear, waited for something to pop up on the interweb, or used various employee discounts to buy the next piece of the audio nirvana pie. Thus it was outside my typical comfort zone when I purchased a brand new pair of Magnepan 1.7s two months ago. For that story, see this thread:

          Hi,

          Anybody had an experience on how the rollers of the 802D can damage (or not) a wooden floor?

          I'm about to move them in a new place and would like to know before making any scratches or anything else that would definitively lower my waf... ...
