Turntable fabric dust cover - any recommendations?

Hi I would really like a black fabric cover for a turntable, seen loads on eBay, but no idea of quality. Has anyone purchased such a thing (or have one they no longer use and would sell on maybe?
 
Might be worth approaching a local soft furnishings supplier, someone who makes curtains, pillows etc. Very easy for someone with a sewing machine to run up a cover. Four corner seams and hem round the edges.
 
I got one of these a few months back and for the price paid I'm very pleased with it:

It's a cheap and cheerful soft fleece material. You supply the desired dimensions to the seller who makes it to order.
(No connection to the seller other than as a satisfied customer).

Aha! Thanks. Was loooking at that seller, thought it was good value.. do you have a pic? Is it a tight(ish) fit?

The seller asks you to supply the dimensions you want so the fit is as tight as you want it to be. I added a cm in each dimension to mine so that it's easy to slip on and off. They also made me one for the power supply for a few quid more.
If I can get a pic sorted I'll post it later.
 
Years ago, I just bought a piece of black felt. I 'hemmed' the 4 sides, sized for the exact size of the lid top surface, on the basis that most dust gathers on horizontal surfaces.

I don't bother with it now. I just dust over with a fluffy duster every once in a while, sweeping across (not circular motion), 3 sweeps is enough to do the lid on the RP6.

Occasionally use a cellulose sponge dampened with hot water and washing up liquid solution, again only sweeping across in one direction.

After 8 years or so, the lid is still blemish free.

You could get a custom sized perspex sheet from eBay and put silicon/rubber feet on them.
That wouldn't change the look much.
