great article on record pressing. just the right amount of detail and
length. all i can say is: what a freakin' complicated and obscure
process it is!

in the back of my mind i thought you could scrounge up and old record
lathe and cut some records in a back room if you had the time and
inclination. but it's so much more complicated than that. so, so, so
much more complicated and resource-intensive.

clearly this is something to be left in the hands of dedicated
experts.
