Gorgeous looking table - I'm sure it sounds just as good as it looks!

Thorens TD150 MkI re-plinth.

On the doktors table: Thorens TD150 MkI re-plinth.
This one came in without a plinth. The client brought me the turntable motor unit and some fittings. It's been a long journey and the result is excellent (if I might say so myself

).
I also serviced the turntable and re-set the suspension that was completely out of whack.
The plinth is a hefty Kiaat plinth that has been corner braced and with a solid 12mm baseboard. The finish is a satin poly-wax.

Adding finish

First 'fitting'

I hope you don't mind me posting these progress pics.

It does give some insight into the amount of elbow grease involved in getting to the final stunner.
