Thanks Claus!!


Barry - its not a million miles away from your Souther!!

Clone of this arm:

Its been getting very good notices and its easy to build. I thought it would be worth trying it out against the air bearing arm. That arm is excellent, but the air pump is a pain. If you could get that sound without the air.....

Waiting on some ceramic bearings for the carriage.....


How are things?

I would love in time to get a parallel tracking arm, they seem to make logical sense!! That version you are looking at sounds really well.
