Have not heard from you recently. How is your project going. I just purchase a used signature and have recieved part of it today. I will comment (similar to piedpiper) that the plinth on the signature is a much more professional piece of work. This machine will require some work to get it up and running well. In particular, i am interested in your approach to the center pin replacement. The center pin in this one is shot. I believe there is a replacement in the spare parts box that has not arrived yet. I looked at the thread several times but can not find the reference to the center pin. I believe you were going to replace with delrin versus teflon or plastic.
I will also replace the stock leveling spikes with valid points or still points as the existing spikes are deformed due to the weight of the table. Also, the tonearm is kind interesting. It is more stable that the one on my reference table but it is not a thing of beauty. It appears that an aluminum tube was pressed to form a headshell that that became the armwand. I will try it out before I modify it, but I like my method of adjusting vta on the fly and the overall appearance of the carbon fiber arm and wood headshell. Also, this table does not appear to have a tonearm lift so i will need to make one for it. I shake too much to handle the arm directly
Overall, it is a beautiful table that i will enjoy modifying. I will post some pics as i get this one up and running
