Beautiful! What wood is that? Looks like solid boards, yes? Are there other layers of materials or bracing inside? Regarding your comment about it not being as silent as your Lenco, I've not yet heard this model, but mine (different motor, different drive mechanism) responded very well to tuning the motor and putting the plinth on spikes. If you want to experiment further, in my modest experience experimentng with different mats and armboard materials can do wonderful things without robbing the alive qualities and impressive drive it has while playing LPs.Looks great!

This is what it looks like behind the bubinga.
Here you can see how the top and bottom layer fit into the grooves in the bubinga. All glued up, this thing is solid.
No kidding! Beautiful and painstaking work! Congrats and Bravo! Did you cut the dados in the frame pieces after assembling the inner layers?Humble regards,
Yes, the dados were cut after the internals were complete. After the dados were cut, I cut the rabbet that the table sets in and then I fine tuned the the heighth of the rabbet to be level with the lower part of the table top where the speed lever is.
