Finally, an affordable CD Transport: the Shigaclone story

[kanifee]

Long legs to the voltage side of the circuit and short to the earth (-)

Today I took some time to get an idea how the transport will be build....

I used MDF to get a feel of proportion.....and low costs before I start hacking away with acryl and the likes.....

It wil look like the Metronome Kalista...well that is the idea..

[Erik van Voorst]

After drawing quite a few circles I placed the assembly just on a feel right basis...

[Erik van Voorst]

After that it is sawing time so I can take a look how the form flows..

[Erik van Voorst]

Mounted a second one on top with round wooden spacers and assembled a kind of foot....to get a height idea...

[Erik van Voorst]

...and my overall look....I am not really disapointed about my first
attempt....

Looks like a nice set up, very nice shape to.

In the past Elso has sold clock kits c/w parts and PCB. I put one in my CD67SE about two years ago.

Had to make adjustments to the enclosure...I am glad it is still mdf which is an equivalent to cardboard...
