Common sense isn't anymore!
Marco created this thread following my making him an ebony armboard for his superb SL-1210 deck.
There's a whole thread on that.
This thread is for counterweights and armboards and other things I hand craft.
Here is a little taster of the following pages of the products I make.
You can see more on my website (see link at the bottom).
No probs. If you weigh the lot and let me know.
I had a Techie here until recently but sold it due to SP-10.
I'll need to find out the arm tube dia at the back. Perhaps a Techie owner can measure with a vernier caliper?
Are you ok with loosing the spiral spin heavy / lighter action?
Normally I would just drill out to the right dia and use a grub screw to secure - bit more difficult to weigh in as you have to just slide the weight with light grip on from the grubscrew and when right tighten suitably tight.
This is how a Rega or Schick 12" is done
Prob improves rigidity to the arm...

Thanks Steve for the reply & also the PMs about the LP clamp ...
& thanks to Hamish - it looks like my ideal counterweight would be 28.5 + 99.66 + a bit for the blu-tac! Call it 130g or a bit less.
A grub screw to secure is fine.
I'll need to find out the arm tube dia at the back. Perhaps a Techie owner can measure with a vernier caliper?
Can anyone help with this?
Hey - this is exciting, isn't it!
.
15.85 mm
in imperial should be: 0.5 in + 6/128 (but not sure how to read this on caliper)
Giovanni.
... Arm tube dia... I'm happy to send steve my spare arm for him to use to get it right jerry
I'd quite like a custom counter balance too but purly for aesthetics... Is they any other benefit to them other than added weight (which it apears I don't need and have a jelco heavy one if I did)
Jerry ... Without wanting to lumber steve with loads of milling, have you thought about asking him to make you a big heavy weight/clamp?
