VPI Scoutmaster and Target Wall Shelf

VPI recommends a thick maple block under their tables. Bearpaws are even better. Corian is good...Ultima is even better, though very expensive.

Turntable measures about 19.5 x 14 (with motor sticking out)
Where the feet are I think I can fit onto an 118.5x14 platform. The right side of the turntable may have to extended out on that side. I think I'll go with the Target 2 shelf unit so for when I add the SDS later down the road. I also plan to order the 2" mapleshade platform upgrade ($245) and isoblocks to mount it to the wall shelf. Later I will add the bearclaws or mapleshade brass footers to replace the stock metal cone feet.

Oops, that should be 18.5x14 platform in my previous post.

Be careful, my Scout just fits comfortably on the oversized PS-1. You need room for the motor to extend beyond the side of the turntable plus it is nice to have a little extra space for stylus cleaning fluid, record brush, etc. If you add an SDS later the cable is plenty long to place it on your rack nearby. I took a close look at the smaller Target shelf and decided it was going to be a VERY tight fit--too close for comfort. Just MHO.

I took the plunge and ordered the larger single shelf model. I'd like to replace the stock MDF board with maple later. Also would like to change the stock cone feet on the Scoutmaster to some mapleshade heavyfeet. But I'll start with the shelf first and tweak one step at a time.
