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?”

Oregon,

" Maybe its time to end Da Thread, Lenco Heaven and Lenco Lovers?"

Why??? As long as Lenco Lovers is concerned, we are having a lot of fun, and if you would pay a visit, you would see that the last and final word on plinths has not been said yet!

Regards,

Francois,
Just joking.
This is an excellent thread. Sometimes things get a little rocky.
I am familiar with Lenco Lovers and it is fantastic!

Oregon,

You may have been joking, but you have a point though as many times, instead of building and testing, there is a bit too much theoretical discussions just going nowhere, but still something can be taken out of all the digressions and "mad scientist" considerations ;-)

Yes, Francois.
Unfortunately, you are correct.
Here's a question to the Lenco Brethren:
Which is your best arm/cart combo with the mighty L75 replinth?

Though I don't use a L75 (GL55 with heavy platter mod) , my favourite combo, so far is Schick+SPU, but it's only a matter of personal taste in the end ;-)
