I've not come across one of those before, but it certainly looks the business!
I believe the TT dates back to the 80's. Designed by George Merrill in the USA who did a lot of AR TT mods and put all off his modding experience into this table when he designed and build it.

Mine... DIY I made a music controller a few years back that was destroyed by water in the fire, I used the body as a basis for a 2-armed 9" and 12" turntable using aftermarket upgrade parts and kit parts.
It sounds really good, nice balance and no rumble or noise, but I would say that having built it.

Cute, but nah, I'm done naming things. It clearly "is what it is"... I can barely name my own compositions these days. I have about 15 that I just cannot work out if I can be bothered to call them anything... Autechre random hitting of keyboard?
Anyway Glad you like the design. Mix of accident and what I already had. I decided bevels a la pink triangle PT TOO were a theme I would run with, while everyone is going all blobby and curvy I decided a return to angularity and bevels was in order, simplifies a lot of things and reduces waste.
It has immense torque, Triple banded subplatter... I could have bought a record player but where is the fun in that?
This was what I made... That was the v3 controller, an OSC usb control surface fire performing with...
This is what I made second
The deets are in /diy it kept me out of trouble and not getting into circular arguments

I agree, I diy'd an arm tube, polished and drilled to the AM recipe but the bare metal didn't stay shiny for long.
Mine (on the right) is a couple of years old and is still looking as new.
The other one's recently been upgraded with the Micrometer VTA, just a week out of service, great service from Jeff. Sounds bloody good too ;-)
