How to go about getting a new arm board for a new tonearm

I have a VPI TNT Jr. with the upgraded motor, super platter, motor controller, 10 inch JMW arm, peripheral ring.  It sounds decent enough but I hate the tonearm.  (The wobbly unipivot - just fed up with the design).  I would not get another VPI arm.  My question is, I have the VPI table with the rectangular arm board.  How do I go about getting a new arm board for a new tonearm?  I'd like a Tri-Planer or a Graham but not sure who to look at to get the armboard.  I doubt VPI would send me an armboard for another manufacturers arm.  I would love some direction.

Thanks guys!

There are shops which make all kinds of things from acrylic. Some

of them use laser to cut acrylic. They can make for you whatever

armboard you want. But you need to provide them with an example

of your armboard. You can also get whatever tickness you want.
