In_shore,
There were some previous discussions here regarding cantilevered pivoted armboards attached to the armpods as per Corby's excellent example illustrated some pages back.
To me, there are three obstacles to this in relation to this thread:-
1) It requires even more expert machining and metalworking skills which puts it beyond the average DIY audiophile here.
2) It makes it more expensive
3) A cantilevered swiveling and/or height-adjustable mounting board attached to the armpod, has many risks regarding stability, movement and rigidity.
The prime requisite in my thesis on the armpod is that of utter solidity and stability.

Strangely enough.....moving the heavy armpods on spikes is not that difficult.
Without the spikes however......the pods can 'glide' across the shelf with alarming alacrity. Co-efficient of friction of the two smooth surfaces must be low?
