From time to time I see a question about storage for extra headshells. Recently looking online for my question below I've seen a new Audio-Technica product to store and protect three headshells for $30. Do a search.
My ?, I have a standard headshell with threaded hole to attach weights. I found a headshell with the weights but nothing for the weights separately. They were 2 and 4 g. Anyone know a source?
TIA

I made this cartridge/headshell holder out of a piece of 3/4" oak. I use the lid from a plastic lettuce container as a dustcover.
Very resourceful! A nice tidy job too - I like it :)

One can use an old CD case (the 50ct case is the perfect size) to print a base which can hold up to 6 bayonet type headshells:

That's awesome. It looks like you would need to swivel them, so there must an inner groove for that?
Might someone be willing to print and ship one to a fellow member for a small fee?
Which member would that be :)
Sure, zomax. Specify color, # of headshell slots (up to 6), a shipping address in a separate email, and I'll send it to you 1st class USPS no charge. Yes, once inserted you swivel the headshell 45 degrees to secure it.
They are available on eBay.
I'm not sure I understand what you're looking for, M3. It sounds like you're looking for something to store the auxiliary weights in. Is that right, or are you looking for the weights themselves? Or something else?

2. Seeking source to buy threaded headshell weights, 2 and 4 g.

I got some from aliexpress. https://www.aliexpress.com/w/wholesale-headshell-weights.html
Soundsmith has cartridge screws in various weights by material. They weren't long enough for my cartridge so check. I wound up cutting and drilling some 1/8" aluminum plate to add 4 gms.

...but try KAB. Technics had a model with screw in headshell weights, something like SL1200 MG, can't remember for sure. Kevin might sell the weights separately.
The blissful counterstroke-a considerable new message.
