Thanks for the additional detail! The SDF-10 tonearm is a model from Shure, known for its high-quality design and performance. It's often used in professional audio setups and high-end turntables.

That threaded rod lift point screams home-brew. As does the pivot "design".

More pictures from more angles please!

The head shell edges look like they were hand filed.
I can't find a match using Google Lens.
It may have sapphire cups installed for the pivots, one of the things done when upgrading the AR tonearm.
Really interesting!

I'll try and get some more photos. For even more interesting stuff about this turntable, check out the win labs SDT 10 cartridge.. LOL
