| Building high-end 'tables cheap at Home Despot II Hi Oregon and Marius,Thanks so much for the kind words.Marius, Sight unseen (I've got a new order in for a small, as well), I still think that the Lenco plinth build with the PCTP Mk II will be considerably easier than a build with the original Le... | |
| Building high-end 'tables cheap at Home Despot II In the vein of taking a Lenco to its limits, while still holding on to its Swiss engineering essence (who am I to attempt an improvement on this great drivetrain), I’ve finally finished up on the Interstate l-75.It incorporates high degrees idepen... | |
| Building high-end 'tables cheap at Home Despot II Hi Mosin,Your points are well taken and center in on the crux of the “growth pains” that have been simmering for quite some time on Project Lenco, that being - at what point does innovation, be it simple tweaks or redesign, take away (or add, for ... | |
| Building high-end 'tables cheap at Home Despot II Hi Chris,It’s an honor for many of us to have you post to this, the 2nd iteration of the “Home Despot” idler discussions, as well as your consideration of the possible candidacy of the Lenco as a platform for the Verus motor.After reading the Tere... | |
| Building high-end 'tables cheap at Home Despot II Hi Lewn,There's nothing "locking" about the bearing sleeve coupling. The top plate comes on and off just as it would with a free floating bearing. It's slips in and out of that 3/4 Baltic ply layer just a bit more snugly.- Mario | |
| Building high-end 'tables cheap at Home Despot II Hi Lewm,Actually, someone on the original “Home Despot” thread did exactly as you suggested. He clamped the bearing sleeve with wood. His work was in the back of my mind when I began experimenting with this version. (Actually, I tried it out first... | |
| Building high-end 'tables cheap at Home Despot II OK Gadfly, do as your handle implies and buzz off to snipe somewhere else. You’ve become repetative in your negativity, so maybe you’ve convinced yourself that there’s good reason to hate others more than yourself. Hi mrjstark,This link will take... | |
| Building high-end 'tables cheap at Home Despot II "Da Thread II" Year end Statistics:520 Posts76,267 ViewsNobody died.Now for something completely different: A new Lenco - "Interstate l-75" in "My System" - Mario | |
| Building high-end 'tables cheap at Home Despot II Lewm,It's quite possible we may be left with a "Who was that Masked Man?" situation with Mosin.But he did leave this part reveal about the "Backstage Pass" over at Lenco Lovers yesterday:Andy,Thanks for the kind remarks. I certainly appreciate the... | |
| Building high-end 'tables cheap at Home Despot II Wow Mosin! That’s the absolute tops of any homebrew turntable I’ve ever seen anywhere. And you accomplished this without a basement full of Chinese illegals? Absolutely stunning production quality (and I mean high-end production quality) in this b... | |
| Building high-end 'tables cheap at Home Despot II Hi Mosin,It would seem that there is little to be gained by splitting semantic hairs over the meaning of “discovered” – especially since you seem to be carrying some pain and anger over this for quite some time. Had Jean written “I discovered what... | |
| Building high-end 'tables cheap at Home Despot II Hi Jean,You’re quite the lightning rod, wherever in the world you are. To echo Grant’s sentiment – enjoy your travels and come back safe. Your point of where audio fits into life’s scheme is well taken. The welcoming smile from an unprestigious to... | |
| Building high-end 'tables cheap at Home Despot II Hi Mike!Glad to see you back. Missed your irreve"rant" ways on many a forum over the last few months. Whatcha been up to? Any progress on Peter's designed top plate?Mine is still mired in the design application phase -probably more dreaming than p... | |
| Building high-end 'tables cheap at Home Despot II Hi GP49,It's possible that Ed Crockett held onto the old PVC tire that I sent along to him for reference with mine last year. If not, it's not super critical especially if you can trace the "V" profile. Diameter can be an "in the ballpark" matter ... | |
| Building high-end 'tables cheap at Home Despot II GP49,Better late... I had Ed Crockett do a tire rebuild on my plastic idler from a Bogen-61 last year. Couldn't be happier. Firm, yet supple and at a very reasonable price. If you do decide to send it off to him, be sure to include as much of the ... |
