Here is a bit of a make over and fix up project for a Heybrook TT2 turntable.
First a new solid ebony armboard, 18mm thick with the 4 mounting points.
Fitting is a Rega RB arm.

These turntables originally suffered from a well documented problem of the armboard mounting area not being level with the platter.
I carefully shimmed the armboard so that it was perfectly true to the platter in all planes.
Ready to go.
