Gadfly.... you have totally lost me, LOST me. I was remarking on you and Jejune's back and forth, nothing more. I really, really do not understand your last post, the reasoning behind it, and what exactly you are trying to say, other than you don't like idlers, which we ALL know anyways! so, ...... your point?
Building high-end 'tables cheap at Home Despot II
“For those who want the moon but can't afford it or those who can afford it but like to have fun and work with their hands, I'm willing to give out a recipe for a true high-end 'table which is easy to do, and fun to make as sky's the limit on design/creativity! The cost of materials, including 'table, is roughly $200 (depending, more or less), and add to that a Rega tonearm. The results are astonishing. I'll even tell/show you how to make chipboard look like marble and fool and impress all your friends. If there's interest I'll get on with this project, if not, I'll just continue making them in my basement. The next one I make will have a Corian top and have a zebra stripe pattern! Fun! Any takers?”

I have a Thorns TD111 I rehabbed and like it very much. I am not anti-idler. They do have a "hip to be square" aesthetic, don't you think? "why not buzz off.." Why do you guys get so emotional over very very little? I watch the thread to see if there is anything to learn regarding rehabbing idlers. Sadly, there is a high degree of misinformation, mutual back slapping, and an obnoxious amount of self-love. But the fooles parade marches on. |
Gad, Is the Thorens TD-111 an idler? Have you restored or repaired it? If so, why not enlighten us? Perhaps you have something to teach us, other than how to make snide remarks. I can't recall your ever having made a useful contribution here, but perhaps I am wrong, since I am a late-comer to the faith. |
snide remarks is what the internet is all about, amigo. here is my page: http://home.comcast.net/~omaille/audio/TD111/TD111.html |
