WTRP and Shelter 501

I have a Well Tempered Record Player (comes with its own arm) and a Shelter 501, going into an AN step-up transformer then to the Seduction.

The WTRP sits on a homebuilt sandbox, this made a major improvement in sound.

My long term goal is to build my own TT and arm, currently its looking like a graphite platter (NOT carbon fiber) on aluminum base with the platter itself being the armature in a DC motor. I'm working on a cflex pivot tonearm which is going to look something like the inafamous golden gate tonearm, only made out of bamboo and toothpicks!

I'm working on a 3d triangular honeycomb made out of thin baltic birch plywood as the base.

It will probably take 5 years to get this thing built at the rate I'm going these days.
