@slyka@pawb.fun @miunau@meow.social I like this. But I have a few questions. 1.does it still read in a pc? 2. Doesn't the engraving arm have to much limited movement because of its size not letting it get closer to the middle/end of the disk?

    @Bit_form@corteximplant.com CDs read from the inside out, so yes, theoretically that works as long as there is no data in the part that has the grooves. Cutting into a CD is mostly a gimmick and is basically already beyond the inner limit for what's on spec for a real vinyl record. My automatic turn table won't even play these cause it thinks it's already beyond the edge of the record and immediately stops…

    @Bit_form@corteximplant.com @slyka@pawb.fun @miunau@meow.social the laser for a CD focuses below the transparent outer layer so that's how they can work with scratches on them
