Rake angle

SirAnthony,

Rake angle applies when the contact area is taller than wide, and therefore represents a sort of line on the wall. The contact area runs up and down each 45 degree wall, but will appear almost vertical when viewed from the side. The deviation from vertical is the rake angle. Records must be cut with the stylus at an angle, so the SRA is usually around 18-22 degrees.
