DIY TT

I am looking at the Denon DP-3000, which appears like it might be able to slide out and mount into a homemade base?

Basically I am looking for a dual arm setup.

Also my existing TT only takes 1 arm, and it is limited in which arms lengths it can support. 

Or are there other drive units which might be better suited to such a scheme?

It contains images that will surely get the creative thoughts working overtime.

…

The Through Section of the JVC shows a substantial material has been selected for the Chassis and the walls and base of the Recessed Bowl.

Reminds me of a hemispheric resonator gyroscope.

Looks like the study of the Vintage Models has brought the 'Trekkie' fan out as well 😀

Townshend Audio offered their damping trough separately in the late-80's/early-90's. I've never seen one for sale used, but one could be taken off a "sacrificial" Townshend Rock table and used on any other design. The cheapest Rock to find used is the Mk.3.

Not a Trekkie, but more of a techie maybe?

The plywood board has been replaced with a 1 3/4" maple platform spiked to the wall shelf.  It had some scraps around that just happened to fit, and was intended to be  temporary. 

The second piece of acrylic was also the temporary shelf material.  I have not decided what to replace it with  It is too thin to support the weight of the new wooden platform and the heavier plinth without bowing slightly.  But that's more of a practical issue than an isolation issue, I'm not having any issues at all with any structural vibrations reaching the plinth.
