Got wood?

Maybe the days are over for those that have a "black crack" habit. Seems as though someone has devised a technique to cut records to wood instead of vinyl and/or acetate.

Ignoring the newspaper the report is filed from, it still makes for an interesting read and brings a new angle to things. Best of all you can apparently cut your own records....

Although I wouldn't suggest using an MP3 as your "master" to cut from, I'm not sure if this is a limitation of the code that was developed to perform the process....


 Hopefully this might lead to some record labels doing limited runs of certain tunes on wood, which I think is a really cool concept. As a record collector myself, I'm a sucker for anything that's remotely limited or special, and would love to own a version of a song from one of my favorite labels cut to wood.
