Dust cover ???????

I went to a plastics factory,where they make acrylic display cases from covering models to cake displays ect.
I had them cut the top cover about 2/3 back so I could change the LP with ease and when I lift up the lid she rests on the rest of the lid(acrylic hinges also).the top face is slanted down as I have a Clearaudio championII on a 4 shelf stand.
It is a lot easier to change the LP as my racks are quite high.I payed 170.00 for a custom made cover and she looks way better than just the square cover(no lid),as you would have to lift up the whole cover to change an LP out.I think she was cheap and I got exactly what I wanted and needed(convenience).

save your money! no need for a dust cover! you will never use it!

DrummerMitchel,

could you post a picture of this?

I was thinking of having something like this made.

... then a dust cover is a really good investment. In fact, if you employ a cleaner, then get one too. I lost the stylus from my Dyna Karat and my Micro Seiki LC80W over the years to a bit of rather zealous dusting!!!!

We have cats and 3 kids. I bought a custom cover for my Platine Verdier; as a result my Allaerts cartridge has remained intact.

If all you have is a cheap 30 dollar MM, then who cares. If you have a 2500 dollar cart, then it's a really big deal.
