What a super cool idler project. I love it! You lucked out.I am not sure that the *remove paint* thing would be as good as just building a new plinth. Email me about this if you don't want to diy... I am building a new plinth and building two is about the same trouble as building one. I probably have enough left overs to not have to order a thing.
I love your Thorens! I bet it will sound nice too. Have you tried your Rega arm on the thing yet? How does the sound compare to that Rega table of yours?
I bet you are spinning it right now!
Hopefully the motor is running good. Just buy a can of electric motor cleaner from a auto supply store. At an electronics store you can buy contact cleaner which is what I have used on all my projects. I am using the cleaner without lubricant.
Cheers!
