The round inlays on the top of the post are there for the isolation feet to register into. I still have a few stretchers to add to the stand base, and I think I'm going to use Golden shellac on the Maple. Probably polyurethane on the stained butcher block top.

The belt I ordered was too slick and just spun. But Marc sent me a VPI Aries II belt that he had on hand and it works great! Milo and I started on the new stand today. Should be a few more days on that.

And now what did you do TODAY?
I found a Bank of Italy bank book behind the fireplace of an old Victorian in SF. I think it was about 100 years old. Gave it to Al and Claire. If memory serves, the guy had about $1,000 in his account. That would have been a nice chunk of change back then.

Got the re-tipped Zu DL-103 back yesterday. Today I mounted the cartridge, set the tracking force, aligned the cartridge and set azimuth and VTA. The custom belt is due on Tuesday, so I'll check the sound then. My last pieces of wood for the new stand shipped today. should be here soon. It's all coming together.
