Re: Custom Made Armboards

Assuming the size and thickness fit your table, you could order a lead shot loaded, cocobolo armboard from Teres.

They'll drill it for most tonearms, and I'd let them do it if possible. Cocobolo is the devil to work with. It eats tools and won't cut/drill cleanly unless yours are razor sharp and diamond hard. Cocobolo is so dense it can actually be drilled and tapped for machine screws. Mine has three #10-32 tapped holes for my tonearm mounting screws.

You might also be able to order an armboard from Galibier. Theirs are made of metal, but I forget what kind(s).
