    Default Lenco GL75/78/70 MDF Plinths Bare MDF finished ready to paint 3 left

    I have a friend who owns a Wood Work "factory" out of Tottenham, and I left them with measurements for a GL75 plinth...low and behold, he's pumped out 10 for sale. 5 have been spoken for, and there's five left, (of which two have been undercoated and painted white).

    Can be light varnished, or sprayed over.

    No rear holes for IEC or Phono/earth..., DIY
    L75 top plate fits in perfectly (without tag board situated under platter...
    Has four stud holes to secure top plate + additional 2 holes for securing top plate by screws*

    They are £100 each plus postage...bare MDF only
    The painted ones in white are £140 each + postage
    : UK Post only.

    Always hovering over M25/M11 ...could organise a drop off point for single or multi drop...... or you could organise courier..
    I'm based in North London, near Turnpike Lane

    Those look excellent Don. I dont need one, but they look something of a bargain.

    Hi Chris, thanks for your reply. The remit was to produce a plinth that you could just throw your GL75/78 top plate into, keep existing wires in situ, screw it down and off you go.
    There are new Perspex Lids on the bay for £34 (Audio Technica Dust covers: they were £29 each, 2 weeks ago..doh) that will fit. and some Chrome isolation feet (pack of 3: easier to adjust level than four..) for about £13 (ebay) and that's it!
    Varnish it, paint it, gloss it or just leave it..low cost transformation..I should try and sell face lift products!

    Looks very good indeed , The ply would cost half of the amount asked , Is it done on a CNC router ?

    Nicely done. Tempted to get one and salt it away for next Lenco project (and there's always another one ...)

    Adam, if you've got the design, I'll submit them...and see what happens...it's all about demand, and whether the plinth needs to support two tonearms (which any good deck deserves...)?

    Who wants a MDF plinth for a 401?
