Video on a wax cylinder !
Posted: Fri Aug 10, 2007 12:15 am
I have made the first attempts at putting NBTV pictures onto a wax cylinder as per my Edikow machine suggestions.
First two tries shown here. I cannot seem to play it back with a 78 stylus as the stylus seems to want to recut the grooves instead of playing them!
The first is badly over modulated as you can see but the second looks good under a magnifying glass.
So more work to be done still, but the NBTV signal has definately been recorded onto a wax cylinder for the first time!
