Another option is to buy a refurbished Garrard 401 or 301 from Audiograil (Mathew Taylor) out of England. Mathew does excellent work and his tables look brand new when he is finished. I have only bought parts from Chris Harben and I hear he does great work but you will pay a premium.

Jim Campbell has done a lot of great looking plinths for the 301 or 401 at a decent price.

Attached is a photo of their work.

Chris at Woodsong Audio master woodworker and Garrard expert is who you want. Art Dudley reviewed a plinth of Chris. I've had Chris rebuild my 301 and build a plinth for me awhile back. Stunning work.
I live in Des Moines not far from you in Tacoma.

Woodsong in Sandpoint, ID is the best I can do in proximity. Chris does great work so worth the drive or shipping. Near Couer d'Alene.

agree re Woodsong. check out 401 with blue plinth on his website- that's mine.
