[COLOR="Purple"]Hello again, as you can see, at the moment I use a Linn Basik turntable with an Alphason Xenon MCS arm which, to some degree, I'd like to keep. I am thinking however that I would like to modify the Linn with a new plinth. The intention is to make a new massive structure from one inch thick ply laminated with PVA to form something around four inches thick with cutouts for the motor, bearing and arm. The whole thing is to be coated in matt black with spun aluminium fittings. So, if that's the picture, does anyone have any advice...???[/COLOR]
