l want to build a solid wood turntable

Sam here again and roxy 54 just can't except my forward ideas.the audio industry: lf it ain't broke guitar sam: i want tone i gotta step outside the box.

If you ever took wilderness survival training you'll know why not to use wood for the spindle and bearing.

Once fully soaked/saturated the wood would require a minimum of 2 years (per 1" thickness) to air dry and become stable.

Perhaps less time if the larger surface area of the wood (cut considerably oversized to be cut/milled later on) is end grain, I would guess.

Faster/higher temperature curing can be/generally is problematic unless precisely/knowledgeably controlled.

If you are considering soaking/deeply saturating a "log" then plan on a decade, or more, of proper drying/curing.

Just something to think about.

How about something faster/easier to work with (like depleted uranium waste solids and/or plastic masses retrieved/cleaned from our oceans)?

DeKay

use quartz crystal for the tone arm because it's the most powerful earth crystal

Lost me.

Sam here and if i use a kiln or sun lamp would i be able to dry the wood faster?
