Our condolences ray, its never easy

Given how nice this project 9cc arm is im intrigued by the 12" 12cc, 10.5 g effective mass for that one.
Id be willing to bet it would be an absolute cracker
How to justify 800 quid...........

After several more arguments with she who must be obeyed about the amount of turntables I have it has been decreed that this deck has to be sold. Not particularly happy, but in the interests of my own physical safety, i have agreed to let this one go..... Very Reluctantly..... I would rather keep th...

put my eroica in it, ran it into a little bear t8-1 fet head amp and into the benedict audio phono stage rather than digging out the xlps. The little bear is surprisingly good straight out of the box, I can't really hear it much. Doesn't seem to be adding or taking much of anything away, might take ...

That advert forever ruined that song

Ta, wasn't as simple as it should have been, but got there in the end. Im seriously having to think about what decks to keep though, SWMBO has allowed 3, one automatic for her, the jbe which I won't let go ever, and one other. I do have 8 here though, I didn't think that was an unreasonable number b...

all done took some fettling to get the finish right, its had a matt clear lacquer over the top of everything so that the change from veneer to paint from the sides to to edge is seamless. https://farm2.staticflickr.com/1910/45448830451_7d9ff3f0d7_k.jpg Make your own g88 by anthony cresswell , on Fli...

Ive got a third edition around here somewhere if you want to borrow it stu

Those ones on the mini beast get hotter than I would like, id be inclined to make a mesh cage rather than potting them. Looking at the cct it looks like rozenblit runs this amp around the max ratings for the supplied tx. Nowt wrong with that, I just get nervy when there is more heat than I like. Its...

bit more done on it, though not through choice. i was inclined to keep the walnut in its bare colour, but that was not to be as son number one managed to get something on the veneer that marked it. in the end i had to darken the finish to even it all out. This was the idea in the first place, but i ...

got a load more done, got the plinth painted to seal it all before veneer and an arm board made https://farm2.staticflickr.com/1977/45293624731_dd8564d9eb_k.jpg Make your own g88 by anthony cresswell , on Flickr the arm board is a piece of solid oak with a walnut veneer applied to the top face. This...

more routering and the plinth machining is now all done. i took the arm board cutout further forward to clear the arm rest and made it look ok by cutting it in line with the speed marker. and added a toggle switch for power https://farm2.staticflickr.com/1916/43395120990_d7cd7540ca_k.jpg Make your o...

on offering it up, the arm needed to be lower so ive hacked out a deeper section than usual for the arm board. https://farm2.staticflickr.com/1931/31313033098_53bfe507fe_k.jpg Make your own g88 by anthony cresswell , on Flickr it was going to be 12mm deep so that the arm board wold sit flush with th...

did a load of routering, and hacked the actual plinth out of the rough glued up block https://farm2.staticflickr.com/1976/31280403128_2e4fef9287_k.jpg Make your own g88 by anthony cresswell , on Flickr then offered up the deck and the project 9cc arm wot i bought for it https://farm2.staticflickr.co...
