Any update on this?

I'd love to see how the mechanism to engage/disengage the feedscrew was constructed.

Why does it have to be red? The simple fact it's a lot of hassle for just one record. Having to order a sheet of red PVC for just one record is a waste of money. Not to mention making it into a cutable sandwich. The work involved is not cost effective from a cutters side of things. If you order more...

I am not sure if Adi is here or not. But here is a little overview of a great project he is involved in. We need to see more of this stuff documented.

I have all the original Docs. here if you ever need them.

Nice F760!

For anyone needing their rubber puck redone, i had mine done with terry's rubber rollers to excellent success. I could not find the original measurements anywhere, from anybody, so i measured the gap from the capstan motor to the filter disk and added a millimeter. 1" 22/32nds worked pretty good fo...

Yet to be proven in real world scenario, but if Todds work is anything to go by it will be worth the wait
You can follow his progress on the usual social platforms.

Beautiful machine Pete. Best of luck with the sale.

Looks like a fun project.

One thing, I wouldn't use wood to carry the over head. The mechanical movement could cause movement overtime in the support.

I was thinking further of this. You could use Wayne Kirkwood's boards to build a little unit for yourself. EEQ, stereo control, MS Function, flip relays, line drivers. Insert board have to be found yourself but they are everywhere. There are boards around for a Harrison ford HPF/LPF out of the old H...

That's great news Todd. Looking forward to the metal version.

Some helpful hints with a controller would be great.

Paint by numbers is not really our thing.

Stop, start, mark and runout would be perfect.
They way I have it in my head is with arduino boards.
but its a bit messy.
A simplified version would be great.

I shall keep searching.

Chiming in as I also is searching for a speed motor.

Has anyone considered a maxon motor for this scenario.

Any thoughts??
