Well you said "feel free to comment".
My hacksaw would be at the arm mounting arms like a shot,
but I presume you want the option of mounting longer arms.
Personally I'd give this up . The Alphason is really nice.

Looks great!
Is the bearing and platter homemade as well?
what's the red thing under the motorpod?

A work of art. That red thing looks like one of those fancy optical bench up/down tables. Is this a permanent need? Any info on the motor and supply?
Some answers and thanks for the coments

Yep! My 15' DIY arm is still in construction.

The bearing is made on a profesionell tool machine by a friend at Schütte .The platter is made by a friend at Bayer and finaly the red thing is a "Swiss Boy 110" from Rudolf Grauer AG (second adjustabile arm base?!?).
What material is used in the base???
Polymer concrete made in one casting
Any info on the motor and supply?
Case is Transrotor with Papst AC motor (standard) with simple transforner
Source for Phillips Dc motor (Linn LP12,Platine Verdier) ?????

This is a pasteup from another thread....
http://www.diyaudio.com/forums/showthread.php?threadid=4578&perpage=15&highlight=&pagenumber=10
This page #10 also gives details on a US Maxxon motor suitable for the task
This is the motor from the original "Platine Verdier"
For European TT builders it might be easier to get motors from this company in Holland..'
http://www.premotec.com/product_catalogue.html
The CL series ( 29 or 40 series ) should be very good for the task, being Coreless DC motors .
These are the motors used in "Le Platine Verdier". Originally it was made by Philips so I guess Premotec is a Philips offspring....
BTW-- do you have a german source for the polymer concrete???

Hi Posthorn, really nice work!
Maxon motors are actually easy to get in germany. I just bought one, as i plan to change the drive-unit of my Scheu-TT from string-drive to tape- drive.
Hopefully it will be completed within the next weeks- you are welcome to have al look at it; I live in cologne too.
Regards, Boris

My source for polyner concrete went out of business (He is 72 now).If you can't get it in Norway i search a new for you.
Please post what for what purpose you need it.

my purpose is exactly same as yours!! Been thinking about it for quite some time. An aquaintance of mine used to run a small co. making headstones (!) with this stuff, but I have lost track of the suppliers.
I have collegues in several places i Germany, from Hamburg to Munich, who travels here frequently..shipment no problem..

If you post an dxf file or painting or whatever to give a closer look at your plans I make some calls on manday.
Neighbour!
What PSU will it be?
Where do you get the maxon?

Posthorn,
I got the maxon-motor from maxon germany in munich. Since it was no stock-type it had to be build in swiss, what took about three months or so.
My present PSU is build with a L200-Voltageregulator (as described in the L200-designers guide from SGS). It works pretty good, but in future I will test several others designs....
