Well done for not depriving us of this lesson in pure craftsmanship. And much respect for not giving in to certain 'pressures' beyond your control. So pleased we will get to see it finished mate. Nice one -
Well....what can I say that would equate to such superb craftsmanship....to use a good old English saying..."bloody hell".....so....not far to go now Leonardo....... Regards Ron

Superb work as always.....may I make a suggestion re the wiring....'Litz' wire is absolutely the nuts for this application......such as this..... http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Cardas-cable-4x-33awg-tonearm-wire-500mm-for-12-tonearms-SME-LINN-/302104582809?hash=item4656d61a99:g:v9sAAOSwDk5Tu~YF Regards Ron

You can re-apply decal solution several times usually.....I found this informative....... http://incunabulum.co.uk/blog/2009/09/29/tutorial-decals-with-microsol-and-microset/ Ron

To clean off the solution smears use a cotton bud dipped in warm water with a tiny amount of washing up liquid. Ron

Grille looks superb now.....and the lighting rig is something else....the idea of the breadboard is a very clever solution to bringing the wiring together in a logical place. Looking forward to next update. Ron -
This will be a very enjoyable build to watch.... This won't help you....unless it's available in the USA....but for us 'Brits' it is a godsend...although I have not heard it mentioned outside the figure arena...."Dettol" (the dark brown one)...it's an antiseptic! Simply soak the parts or part in a sealed container over night...doesn't matter if their plastic/resin/metal....much less harsh to people than brake fluid/oven cleaner/stripper etc. ....and the smell is cleaner too. Ron

Not many out there who are willing to part with 'trade secrets'.....kudos to a nice guy. Have to say....I am intrigued to see how this turns out.....with the stunning work you have already put into this....well....no pressure mate. Ron
