Like why not? Why does no one make thes simple plastic gizmos?
I can see a plastic cap, which fitted over the arm 'locks in' the precise correct stylus location. They could even be made for the various
'geometries.. So you could swap them and with hardly any effort change the tracking geometry (like Berwald etc)
So.. what enterprising smarty will start up such an enterprise?I base this on remembering some TT I had which did include such a device...
So why don't more companies offer this? Or some tinker make them up?
Really if it is some issue why not, other than various 'alternate' tracking geometry, what is it?
It sure would make changing carts a Hell of a lot easier...
(or is that it, keep it as mysterious as possible?
