I am about to make a Turntable from a Connoisseur BD1 Kit I salvaged from another turntable. I want to mount the motor, platter and SME 3009 S2 Improved arm on the same piece of wood so I would like it to have musical properties. I have heard that Maple is a good choice and also Bamboo is a 'dead wood'. I will use 3 feet on it to give it ground clearance of at least 2 inches so recommendations for these will also be welcome.
I don't expect this deck to be a world beater just an enjoyable project that may make good music that makes me smile.
Thanks for any suggestions.
Alan.
P.S. And yes I have tried searching but perhaps I didn't phrase my search properly.
