No what I saw had no physical connection. It was totally levitating, it was about a four inch thick platter and just had a string belt for drive. I stuck my hand under the platter and through the field.

TubeDriver is correct, you are describing the Verdier TT. It's easy to miss the spindle and it appears like everything is floating without an axis. If there wasn't one the string would pull the platter and not work!

hmmm.... what you are describing sounds a lot like the Platine (which was Vu's reference table in the basement for years) but it does have a spindle/bearing. It has a 4-5" thick Al platter, outboard motor with string belt. All placed on a Vibraplane support. I worked there while in grad school and despite being a boutique item made by the French, the Platine Verdier was very reliable.
