Doing a mock up. Getting ready to cut quarter round. That will give me 3/4 top. Was going to recess the TT. That would throw my VTA way off.

Found a pretty cool protractor a few minutes a go. Anyone have one? Would you pay that much for one especially made for your table tone arm combination. Welp here it is what you have been waiting on. We now go to a word from our sponsors. At volume of Mach 3. Have you noticed the commercials aren't as loud. I think the limit now is 2 or 3 dbs higher than the program. Doing a great job Mr. Pres. You have done something I liked. LOL http://k2radio.com/wyoming-house-bill-no-hb0104-firearm-protection-act/ may have to move there. Oh here is the protractor. Please hold for the next available operator. Music Ladeda Do you know the way to San Jose Ladeda. Over and over and over again. You just want to buy a GPS unit for her. Well on the plinth. Mean while Granny is back home beating off the indians single handed. Ladeda Do you know the way to San Jose Ladeda. Your estimated wait time is 4 minutes. Do you know the way to San Jose. Your estimated wait time is 6 miutes. Ladeda Rain drops keep falling on my head. Ladeda You are now number 2. Your estimated wait time is 7 minutes. Up Down Spinin wheels going around and round.

Should have been an lol after that one....
Nope. In the old days a sailor had nothing on me letting them fly. Was rare. I usually took a break. I don't think my plainer would like Bentonite to much. Trying to remember if Micro Balloons would make it denser yet lighter. This is experimenting 101. If I had a vacuum setup. I would lay cloth.Fiberglass. No carbon or kevlar. Going to use sorbothane for a gasket material between the plinth and arm board. Can cut it with the table saw. Hey Jerry I should have it done mostly by the next time I see you. The red you saw was white resin and red pigment. Candy Apple Red would look very nice in the well wouldn't it. making an arm board mold out of a 6X12 inch box. My drill press has a laser. Didn't know it did.

The candy apple would like really nice.. but like I was saying on the vertical edges only and leave the horizontal surfaces black.

But you know I was thinking.... if the platter is in place, who's going to see it??? :scratch:

Here is the arm board mold with Teflon sprayed on it. See if it works. Think I'll do a pour tonight. Joe can you give me your dimensions and color again.

001.jpg Armboard 001.jpg 002.jpg Getting there. Have to cut inner board. The arm board is mocked up in last pic. Made the arm board larger in the 1st 2 pics so I can customize it. Will plane it down. There is Cherry veneer stuck to the bottom. LOL Will veneer it with purple heart. The armboard that is. LOL
