I'm currently working with Mr. Dawley of D&R (the "D") to possibly start making a few tables again. It will be a slow limited # deal. I'm planning on making them with a higher mass platter, solid ply plinth, etc. but keep things very simple like the original design and use an AC synch motor as original, etc. trying to keep a real world price if it gets that far. I'm poor and build all my own stuff DIY so I can enjoy good sound, so it would go against my principals to do the typical hi-fi markup. Won't be quiting my day job etc. May or may not have something going a year from now.
Mr. Dawley is 92 and exited that I'm interested in his "old junk". He's sending me his personal table to go through and has given me permission to use his design. I'll update materials (no gold sorry) and add mass where it will help and use elastic instead of springs etc. But shooting for something affordable and tweakable.
If your interested in any of this stuff e-mail me.
