Albert Porters after market panzerholz plinths

I would like to hear from anyone that has purchased a panzerholz plinth from Porter Audio or a panzerholz DIY project.
Reading through all that I could find on this subject it's obvious Mr. Porter did his home work on his design.
My question to those of you whom refurbished, replinth and rearmed some of these direct drives has it advanced analog playback for you?

Dear Lewm: My experiences are very similar and that's why I'm asking. That very high torque looks that is no linear to DD quality performance at all.

regards and enjoy the music,
raul.

Thank you, Albert. I'm hoping that this thread will get back on track, where we can discuss what you do, which types of wood/finishes are available, and if you have tried various woods, what were the sonic characteristics of each?

Thank you.

Raul is there anyway of seeing pictures of your nude sp10?
Looking at this whole project of vintage DDs from a first time perspective further research I gather Steve Dobbins and Albert Porter chose their plinth material for very specific reasons that go beyond a knuckle wrap test.

Soft slate for Mr.Dobbins design and panzerholz plywood for Mr.Porter. My question did you guys use any sciencetific tests choosing this material?
