Building high-end 'tables cheap at Home Despot II


“For those who want the moon but can't afford it or those who can afford it but like to have fun and work with their hands, I'm willing to give out a recipe for a true high-end 'table which is easy to do, and fun to make as sky's the limit on design/creativity! The cost of materials, including 'table, is roughly $200 (depending, more or less), and add to that a Rega tonearm. The results are astonishing. I'll even tell/show you how to make chipboard look like marble and fool and impress all your friends. If there's interest I'll get on with this project, if not, I'll just continue making them in my basement. The next one I make will have a Corian top and have a zebra stripe pattern! Fun! Any takers?”

Michaels Shindo and Devore combination with the Giant Coupled lenco sounded very good. I beleive there are a few more you can add to the "Lenco Train" of musical enthusiasts

Hello
Not sure if this is the proper venue to post this but I am going to go ahead anyways because the praise is well deserved

I want to personally thank Jean Nantais for going out of his way to help me troubleshoot a squeak that was coming from the platter
Jean walked me through various tests to narrow down the issue. His last e mail for the night was at 9.00 pm
and he emailed me again this morning to see how I was getting on . I'm happy to report the source of the problem has been identified and the problem has been fixed

Thanks To Jean and others i'm happy to be spinning vinyl again without any noise interruptions. Jean your service is top notch and will continue to read with interest as the Lenco momentum moves forward
I'm having a hell of a time trying to register to the new Lenco proboards sight .it shouldn't be this hard ?
Thanks Mario for the explanation
I will hold off a little bit before I register to the new LL sight

Last I heard Jean is working on a bearing upgrade
and has discovered the ideal mat and clamp for our Lenco's
