Garrard Zero 100 Project
I've finally started on my TT Project.
I ripped out all the Auto Mech stuff off the Garrard and along with the Jelco Toneram I got off here I've bought a Linn Sondek Black spindle bearing. I've now got some lathe time ahead of me!!!
I shall be building myself a new plinth too, but after I've made the new spindle bearing support and got the Toneram where it should be - on a suitable tonearm board too...

Is that an Amstrad head shell or Amstrad tonearm?

Oh my god! There's nothing wrong with the bidet is there?
“Nothing discloses real character like the use of power. It is easy for the weak to be gentle. Most people can bear adversity. But if you wish to know what a man really is, give him power. This is the supreme test. It is the glory of Lincoln that, having almost absolute power, he never abused it, except on the side of mercy".
“You see these dictators on their pedestals, surrounded by the bayonets of their soldiers and the truncheons of their police ... yet in their hearts there is unspoken fear. They are afraid of words and thoughts: words spoken abroad, thoughts stirring at home -- all the more powerful because forbidden -- terrify them. A little mouse of thought appears in the room, and even the mightiest potentates are thrown into panic.”
"You don't have free will. You have the appearance of free will.”
“There's a war out there, old friend. A world war. And it's not about who's got the most bullets. It's about who controls the information. What we see and hear, how we work, what we think... it's all about the information!”

Not quite sure what's going on here.
Looks a bit like one project I saw for cars - converting a Tesla to run on petrol, then driving it to a garage to fill up. Yep - it seems some people really did that!
I have some of the bits shown here - but I'd probably not want to do this conversion. Will be interested to see what happens, and also why!

Sometimes you just want to take something and push the limit to see how good it can be. The Zero 100 deck looks great in a 70s industrial/technology Tomorrow's World kind of way so to max it out is an interesting exercise.
Is it belt or idler drive?

I think the clue is in the photo with that big rubber wheel
I love Hendrix for so many reasons. He was so much more than just a blues guitarist - he played damn well any kind of guitar he wanted. In fact I'm not sure if he even played the guitar - he played music. - Stevie Ray Vaughan

Looks like the arm from an Amstrad TP12D turntable. The arm is as mentioned a Jelco product I believe and the turntable was built by Rega if I recall correctly. Not a bad unit actually.
It is impossible for anything digital to sound analogue, because it isn't analogue!
