THANKSImpressive craftsmanship doitmyself...bravo!
Very funny: "I'd rather have a bottle in front of me than a frontal lobotomy". I like it, and keep it in my mind.
Don't be jealous, I can let for you some works if you want (cause still a lot to do).AHHHHH! Seeing those lathe pictures makes me really jealous!
Woho! big stuff thanks for posting doitmyself, one can see you are a real professional machine builder. Will become a nice piece of machinery.Part 3: surfacing the plan and 5mm on the diameter:
I don't think many make Inox turn tables.
Hi Andy5112405,I can see balancing being the final issue.
How are you approaching the fine balancing that modern engineering principles achieve through fine and repetitive CNC tooling ?
I'm really sorry, but I don't understant what you mean, my English is not as good as that I would like. Can you ask with simple words? Thanks
Hi,
a Q or remark to the tonearm design. As I understand the vertical bearing looks like it is of underhung style. Arm wand and counter weight find themselves below the vertical pivot. This introduces a additional movement of the stylus tip along the axis of the arm wand when riding warped records. Shouldn´t it be better to have the axis of the arm wand pass straight through the vertical pivot instead of passing off of centre?
Impressive work though, especially the rather unconventional platter construction and the bearing.

Yes, good remark. I must think about, and draw again. Thanks.
Yes I understand the meaning of each words, but the sens of the second sentence. I think I understand what he means. The platter is not finished yet, still a great lathe work. Stainless steel has enough regular density. If I take a care while lathering, I don't think I'll have balancing problems (the platter turns at 33 rpm, and see the bearings).équilibrage

Balancing is not difficult a precise ax through the platter. place it vertical with the ax on two bearings right and left. Like a balancing of a motorcycle wheel. When you turn it slow and let it come to stand still the heavy part is at the bottom. Then drill a small hole and turn it again till it has no preference in witch position it ends up.
An externally hosted image should be here but it was not working when we last tested it.
I have such a wheel balancer you can come to Winterswijk and use it.
Unfortunately, that's static balancing only.
