He did all that to make elevator music,...What`s the thing really sound like ?
I don't understand any of this...
Nice. How much did that run you?
I'll try to help - as long as I understand it myself. The video and the text on there was confusing to me as well - so Orange is no idiot (no implications here) - I think the video or the description could have been clearer.
My understanding is that what we are watching/listening to is the AFTER of each cymbal - you'll see that the description tells of 3 cymbals that were modified....and only 3 sections of video - apparently no video of the BEFORES.
My favorite is the first one - sounds much better - very classy and downright pretty, compared to the other two. Though I would agree that all three sound great.
I would like to see some before and HEAR some befores, then the afters....especially if it was done with a real budget line cymbal....a tribute to the lathing skills alone and not a result of superior composition.
Next, I would like to see a cymbal made purely from the lathed scraps alone - melted down and made into a cymbal before our very eyes.
Clapping Happy2 - do another trick for us Mr. Paiste!!! :p

Bingo!
Give that man a Havanna cigar.
And if he doesn't smoke....then give it to me.

I replied with biting sarcasm; that's true.
But I really didn't mean to cast any aspersions or make any insinuendos.
The heavy/thick cymbal (sewer cover) is turnned and material is removed completely changeing the sound and weight without damageing the cymbal.
Most people couldn`t tell it was done. I just wish the tube file went further into the sound it will create !! (he didn`t wack it !!)
