    The Lenco looking slightly less like it did a few days ago. You simply have no idea how complex these old idlers can be. A vast amount of components go into making the tonearm, I've bagged all these up away for storage. The bearing will get a full strip, clean, oil tomorrow.

    The chasis. This will be stripped back to bare metal and then I'll decide if I'm power coating and respraying.

    I need to get a plinth organised.

    I don't know if you are blanking off any openings in the top plate Andy, but if you do and use epoxy you are unlikely to be able to use powder coating due to the heat.
    It is impossible for anything digital to sound analogue, because it isn't analogue!

    Thanks for the advice. I used epoxy on the 1210, what a ball ache! I'm just taking my time with this one and enjoying the process. Tomorrow will be paint stripper city for the chasis.

    Specialist car sprayers will often take on smaller projects. Two pack automotive paints are hard wearing and the choice of finishes limitless. They may (or may not) require a light 'baking', but the temperatures are not high enough to affect epoxy fillers.

    I know full well you cannot because they will not come off without creasing them
