Teres update

okay...fine. I am game. But what is all the other...stuff...warnings, etc. that came with the link?

You should give us all a pop up blocker. ;) I do like the ebony. That should prove interesting. If the plinth isn't cut yet I have a recommendation for you.

Lugnut,

What's your recommendation? Sorry about the freewebspace popups. I am CONSIDERABLY better at wood than the web! I am trying to fix the site this AM.

Jphii,

I was just ribbing you about the pop ups. The recommendation is to have two bolts for the armboard. Both bolt threads should be in the armboard, one for pivot, one for true locking. The plinth shape would need to change at this area and the plinth would need an arched slot to accomodate the pivot. It's way to easy to bump the armboard with the one bolt doing dual purpose. This design change would also allow you to place a cone more directly under the arm tube center which would assist any vibration on its way to earth.
