Idiots, they could have just used a rubber band and DC motor from ratshack

You can find some old accessory belts in an auto graveyard instead.

Perhaps used condoms and a pair of scissors?

Craig ended up getting a Maplenoll with the linear tracking arm, lead platter, and air bearings from a friend of his for $250. (His friend kept the VPI HR-X with the idler drive).

He might be interested in selling his Sony PSX700 biotracer table. Just keeping you guys posted. Craig has to rig up a compressed air system first before he can use the Maplenoll.

Okay, after lifting a record off of my basic bitch VPI mat and hearing all the static discharges, I really need to get something a little better. Recommendations?

Get rid of the mat completely? (Don't know if you can do that - don't forget to adjust VTA and VTF)
