Restoring a Transrotor Skeleton...help

Thanks for the responses, again I apologize for the mistake I made in the correct name. I've got custom tapered, etched glass with a blue tint in it installed all the way around. It's striking to look at by itself. Now I have ventured to below the tone arm mount to see exactly what's going on there. Seems the wires to the arm are disconnected and the pins removed for some reason. It may need a complete rewire. The arm looks very good though, and moves quietly and freely, up, down and horizontily to the center towards the spindle. The record supports are in fine shape too but the rubber ends look worn or just old, the alien looking platter spins freely with the power off and continues to spin as I write this with no signs of slowing down eluding to a bearing in healthy condition...I hope. The control board and controls all look to be in very good shape, there might be a diamond in the rough here, if not a nice CZ. I may opt to remove it from the glass housing and instead mount it to a thick acrylic base. I've got a few arms laying around I'm not using that might be a better match for it, (SME Series 3S, Grace 707, Audio Technica), give me some input guys, thanks.

I have just gotten hold of a Transcriptors Skeleton turntable, and the tonearm and the various pieces associated with it are in a Zip-Loc® bag inside. I have contacted Transcriptors (Michael Gammon) for information but only get cryptic, untimely responses. Can someone lead me to some restoration info, either established or from personal experience, on putting this thing back together? I have downloaded the manual (such as it is) already. Thanks.

I believe the founder of Transrotor worked for an designed some of the Transcriptor tables, then had a falling out and started his own company.

I sold Transcriptor TTs when they were originally imported. Send me a message via Agon or post here with your questions.

Phil, I sent you an email; perhaps it didn't make it through your junk mail filter. Repeated below...

Thanks! I found the Skeleton with the tonearm and (presumably) all the essential parts in a bag inside. I've downloaded the manual off of vinylengine, and though the manual refers to the tonearm coming in a separate package, requiring installation, the instructions to do so seem sketchy. Moreover, the instructions (such as they are) refer to the use of an included template to align the vestigal/cartridge mounting, but no such template was included with the unit. Is there an alternative template available, e.g., downloaded from vinylengine, that would suffice? Is there a specific type/brand of oil I should use on the spindle bearing (I know NOT to use 3-in-1 oil)? Overall, are there any "gotcha's" that I should know about prior to proceeding? Anything you can tell me now would be appreciated, and I promise not to bother you unless I absolutely get stuck. FYI, I have contacted Michael Gammon at Transcriptors twice with a few specific questions, getting responses like, 'We're here,' or 'Send me the unit,' rather than answering the questions. Thank you very much!
