James, thanks for being so comforting! Do you know that "garden bird" means chicken and "auto cycle" means a car in Japanese? I think I better stick to English language articles as I do not intend to put my SP10 MKII on the line so soon.
thanx. ckt |

diyman,
I have posted five pictures of my Technics SP10 truntable and EMT air bearing tone arm I promised you. I hope these help you figure out how to mount an EMT on your base if you get one. I would suggest making a new base to get the locations right before drilling holes in your stone base. I will redo my base when time allows but the truntable does not get much use right now so there is no hurry.

You could use a big slab of Lucite...

Grey,
Actually I don't know what I will use for a base when I redo it. Right now I'am just to busy with other things and this coming summer I will be tied up with doing more work on our house addition that we started last summer. So I have a lots of time to think about the best way to make a new base. I'am not familiar with Lucite but have kicked around various ideas with other materials. John |

John,
Some of my friends who built the TERES DIY turntable used acrylic(30mm thick!) laminated to about 2.5 / 3 inches total thickness to a very good effect. We have compared a few materials and found the acrylic gave fairly good acoustic results and is also cosmetically good! ckt |

ckt,
Do you or your friends have a source for the thick acrylic that could cut some for me? If so I would arrange to buy some. I read something about acrylic in the past and that article also stated if was a good material to use. John |
