I used to make and sell a record clamp that comprised a 4-inch maple disc with three 1 1/2” Gabon ebony discs on top. Since the ebony discs are directional 🔛 the correct direction of each ebony disc had to be obtained experimentally and positioned accordingly on the maple disc. ↗️ ↘️ ↙️ So cool! 🤗
Nobsound Record Clamp
In short DO NOT buy it. It is a knock off on the Michell clamp but only 35$ on Amazon. So, I decided to check it out.
The collet is made of cheap aluminum which easily bends. It will work harden and snap in short order. It is difficult to get off. The collet spins with the knob and you can not loosen it so you just have to pull it off. The collet should have had a key way. All this pushing and pulling is not good for your bearing. SME and SOTA have it right. This is a poor execution with poor materials.
