The problem for me with having it at chest high is having to lift up my arms to do the flipping. My shoulders are so messed up with arthritis, it makes it another problem. Bellybutton high is perfect for me, body straight, arms naturally down with...

@melmImaginative setup. My ring is a canadian Audio TTW, it is extremely thin over the record and is advertised as not hurting the stylus if accidentally dropped on it. Not going to test it but had it for about three years and never had an issue w...
