Turntables, Tonearms: Rare Finds

this is the listing photo. Viewed as a thumbnail, I thought it was one plinth, then, viewing bigger, I see it’s just 5 stacked.

There, by god, is a dust cover, one of my pet peeves

This ends my daily finds, I never saw one of these, anybody own one? 240 volts

Dare I ask, what pray tell is one supposed to do with a dust cover such as that?  Upside down, out in the back yard it could be a birdy bath I suppose.  Expense waste of space if you ask me.

You are right about that.

Mine is big (small compared to that). You need a dedicated nearby location to place it when removing it, I have felt squares on the right edge I put on the floor, and felt squares on the face of the Reel to Reel cabinet where I lean the top of it.

See the tray of plants on the R2R deck. There are two of them, I painted the trays black and put felt feet on them. It moves, there for TT use, or on top of the dust cover on the TT when playing tapes.

When we bought that bentwood/glass shelves rack (floor model from J&R, NYC when going out of business), I promised Donna she could keep plants on top. All components were on the shelves below. 

Then, I came up with the tray idea so I could ’share’ the top. She waters away, I trust her, I had to keep my promise of course.
