l want to build a solid wood turntable

And solid cherry for the plinth...

Look at wooden lazy susans: they have nice round rotating platters.

I've seen a few handmade tone arms. Wood seems to be a favorite. Oak Apatong, Cherry, Black walnut, birds eye maple, all kinds of plastic, type products too.  I saw one guy use Glass, sample draw tubes (open at both ends) 18-24" long about 1/2" OD. He used a propane torch to do his shaping, and welding. Some type of glue for the metal hinge points that were attached. Sure looked cool. No idea how it sounded or worked...

WOOD, is a good material for a platter, tonearms, bearing or bushing housings (like platters axle or spindles).  Plinths and or cabinet style enclosures, EX; Roll top, fliptop, vertical pocket style doors (like a roll top only vertical, Doors bi or single.

If you think soaking wood in whatever you're gonna soak it in is gonna change something, you might want to rethink that one.  You still have to finish the pieces out (sand and fit). Then, protect or cover them with at least OIL, or a clear coat of something. How much of what you soaked it in is still gonna be there? JUST ASKIN', after you get all the parts nice flat, smooth and covered with polished urethane, THEN add a mat of some kind.... You see my point?

It's not "rocket science", but it's not everyone's cup of tea either. No simple task, to say the least..

Sam here and i had the idea to possible use quartz crystal for the tone arm because it's the most powerful earth crystal and maybe make the stylus cartridge in the shape of a pyramid the goal being to get the most resonant tone

Why are any of you responding as if he's serious? This is like an episode of the Twilight Zone.
And Sam, you don't always have to say "Sam here"...we can see your screen name on your post.
