Sorry Bksabath, like all good ideas, someone always beats you (me) to it, Google Void turntable, I have the baby Valdi, the Reference used three motors.
Close but not there
3 motors just to complicate things still mounted on botom frame which then got platter palava armand balancing dudas mounted on spring of this.
2HP in motor power must be shaking tose springs a fair bit
Consider cheap and nasty 1 motor and Idler Flywheel on single totaly independent floating cradle.
Big heavy platter to take care of inertial forces thing. Fly wheel to shift resonant frequency I can put 2 extra motors on it but that to me is just marketing ploy
Well being very bright I devised the drive system shown below as I really hate non-current drive devices. Plays a Handel record very well....sounds very realistic!🙂😎
You got it
Handel be absolute bliss.😀

Ya dummy - only haz to be size of fridge - anything else larger is wasted.... 😀😀😀
🙄🙄Don't be to stupid.....that white thing behind it IS a fridge - ever since the price of heating oil went up to present levels and I spent my pension fund buying a Mississippi steamer for the engine....when I have the other one fitted I will be able to play that new fangled 'stereo' someone told me about. At present I am looking for a wealthy gf (MUST be able to cook and clear water weed from the paddles.)with a totally deaf left ear so that we can hear REAL stereo. 😀
Must go and take a pic of the heavy weight platter for you to drool over!
Just found one taken when I was young!

PS: the record above was from the Stonehenge tour....think they made a film about it.
Like the arm and stylus? Great tracing ability and low mass too and sooo compliant - as must be the gf sought in the above post.

EXACTLY why I kept so quite until now about my favourite TT. In fact I am rather proud of it and want to build a compact travel version for when I go jogging....So I did make a prototype but got banned from the road as the horn speakers were beyond the max width allowed on the narrow UK roads.😡😡
I also made a more normal version for A/V use but was told that I looked so bright that I was once mistaken for Marty Feldmann.🙄

Nawww. THAT is my brother's touring bike version I made for him. He sold it (immediately) to the guy in the background in the pic. Ungrateful little b**ger!😡😡
Because I was not allowed to use my jogging prototype on UK roads, I started a one man band. Rehearsals were every friday night but no one bothered to turn up. So I went to Oakland by myself - with my kit - and entered the "Jessie Fuller Look-a-like" Competition! Judges threw me out just as I got to the "meanwhile in another city..." line. 😡😡 They said that I just looked so obviously stupid and pale that they took it as an insult to Jessie and a danger to my health..😱 I remonstrated to such an extent that they paid my fare back across the pond.😀😀

@ZM - Sales Enquiry....
I am moving back to Ireland...Do I get a better discount there than in Great Britain??😛😛😀
Now here is a real heatsink for really fast amps. And the second pic is the portable jogging horn with the one-man-band which didn't turn up to rehearse!!😎

Nahh.....he is part of an Irish ambulance "get out of the way" kit!

Or another possibility is that he is a band teacher in the Salvation Army down in NO.
