Can a Micro Seiki MA-505M2 from a Micro Seiki DD8 fit on Luxman PD-310 TF-MT tonearm base


Bought a Micro Seiki MA505M2 from a MS DD-8 turntable thinking it would fit on my PD 310 with TF-MT base but it has a different and elevated base than a universal MA-505.  Seller will not take the arm back.  Do not want to cut up or drill the TF-MT base. Thinking I may have to get a base made to lower the arm and accommodate the lip with mounting bolt holes on the tonearm base.  Not sure about the geometry of the whole thing.  Before i start that adventure I was wondering if any of the more experienced here had tried this before or had any thoughts?

Thanks

Yes you are probably right thanks.  I may have to find a machinist one or someone who can do it with some wood.  I was hoping someone had tried before and would suggest replacing the tonearm removable base with something else that would work with the TF MT..  Wishful thinking I  guess.
Thanks BillWojo.  Looks good.  That is helpful.  I use such a tool to be more precise than just using the existing arm hole in the TF-MT as a guide.
