Turntable mat

[Beginner_N]

Is it very soft?

Is thicker silicone rubber sheet available (since most mats are 4-5 mm thick). If using 2 mm thickness, VTA adjustment would be needed.

Thicker sheet is available. I am using 3mm. Which is equal to my old mat but it's not complete 3mm thick, so I didn't do VTA.

Hi Beginner, I am also experimenting with different mats and have recently acquired 2 different varieties of felt mats. I am keen to try out the silicon mat. My table is a Thorens TD-160. The dia required will be 12". If it is possible for you to make one for me, I would be thankful. Let me know how much to pay and where, will do the needful. Pls PM me.

It comes as a motor unit like sp10, without tonearm and plinth. I will post pics when I start a new thread. You can see pics here Technics
I would mostly follow Joshua and build a DIY nanook 312 tonearm.

Sachin

Hi Nishant,
If you plan to make with 4 mm thick sheet, I would also like one.

BTW, I must be still having the PDF and .cdr files I had made for laser cutting acrylic mats. I think the .cdr files can be imported directly to the laser cutter software (or was it they're cutting directly from .cdr, I'm confused). Let me know if you need the file. In any case it's extremely simple to make a drawing as it's two concentric circles - inner one for spindle hole and outer for arc of the mat.

I need to purchase 4mm sheet. If you want I can buy. I am having 3mm available with me.

Pdf is enough for me. .cdr is Corel draw file which can be used for laser cutting.

The magazines I gave away recently had a comprehensive article about turntable mats measurements. The outcome was a thin acrylic mat coupled with rubber mat was considered best. Magazine name was 'Audio'. Will see if available on net and upload.

Thanks, let me know the payment details and will transfer the money. I will PM you my address as well for shipment. And yes, standard center hole is good enough.

OK, don't bother buying 4 mm. I'll also go with what you already have. It's not difficult to adjust VTA

Will you please PM me your email ID so that I can send you the files. Thanks.
