We did something similar to you, see the link.
You don't have to machine the plinth, just drill three small holes and use a tap to thread them. Easy!

Unfortunately, I can't afford a Tri-planar at the moment. So I'm plumbing the market for an under-$2,000 arm that will help me achieve some of what you've been able to accomplish with yours!
Thanks!

Considering the budget you have, the Graham 2.2 is an excellent choice.
Again, I LOVE the Phantom, but my wallet does not.
Maybe if I sell some of the piles of vintage hi-fi stuff around here...
thanks for the recommendation! it means a lot coming from you! (Admire your posts)

Did you have to machine a "pocket" where the motor mounts so the spindle would have enough hight top side?

The plinth has the least amount of machining to accommodate the Empire parts- motor with mounts, power switch and platter bearing.

So are the motor mounts and the belt.
