After one side of the stereo sound of my Dual 1224 record player failed and the old vinyl covered plywood frame was also damaged. I decided to fix the electronics and to make this custom wood (oak) frame/plinth which is finished with linseed oil.

a sympathetic restoration/modification.

It's so nice to see you keep as much of the original as possible, including the original dust too!

@Ema_Punkt 2 года назад

Cleaning might be good idea 😄

It's nice to see old turntables repaired instead of just being tossed out when there's a problem. I've had old ones before with plastic components, and it's nice to see the plastic replaced with wood. Nice work!

Thanks!! I think it is great to have old stuff, there is more "story" behind it. And also some designs are timeless :)

@Ema_Punkt 3 года назад

To be honest I think the record player looks quite fancy with the oak frame :) What do you think?

@drudoni Год назад

Nice job. Loved the basic tools used to make the plinth.

@Ema_Punkt Год назад

Thanks, sometimes you don't need fancy tools, especially if you don't have them :)

@testnerdsets 3 года назад

That's incredible. Can only wish I had the tools and skills in my disposal...

@Ema_Punkt 3 года назад

Thanks! It's not that complicated, maybe just start with a few handtools and rest will come!

Excellent workmanship of the wooden cabinet. It looks amazing. I recently bought a turntable DUAL 1225 with the same headshell cable rework, even the cables were soldered directly on both sides - from the headshell and to the cartridge. I'm about to replace all the cables soon.

@Ema_Punkt 6 месяцев назад

Nice thanks! That is something I probably need to do in the future too!

@peacetrain3320 Год назад

Great job, looks terrific! Also like the small shop, simple tools and the substantial work bench. Keep up the good work.

Thanks!!

Great video! I love watching the process and seeing you overcome mistakes and challenges.

Thanks! Was trying to incorporated more of that into the videos, so good to hear you liked it!

@kopparsulfat Год назад

that looks really nice.

Thank you :)

Ooh I have a 1225 I have just refurbished and it sounds great but the plinth looks lousy. Thanks.

@Ema_Punkt 3 года назад

I'm curious about the refurbish, what did you exactly do? Did you replace the cable, I noticed mine are not in a good condition and wondered how complicated it is to replace them.

@NekoIan66 3 года назад

@@Ema_Punkt I watched a lot of youtube videos and I cleaned all the grease I could, then re-applied grease and oiled. The steuerpimpel was missing (common problem) so I had to jury rig one out of window screen spline. I am thinking of replacing the RCA cable too. Not sure how hard that will be. Mine is not soldered.

@Ema_Punkt 3 года назад

Thanks for the answers. Cleaning and greasing sounds like a good idea, my turn off automatic is sometimes not working proper - maybe that would help😊

@NekoIan66 3 года назад

@@Ema_Punkt Yes clean your automatic track with isopropyl alcohol and re-grease lightly with a modern grease (will not go bad over time). I am still wondering how to redo my RCA cables as both left and right are grounded separately. I have an RCA cable with one ground.

Nice job! But was this turntable worth it? Not sure if it's the photo, it looks like the cartridge azimuth angle is not right - worth checking. Btw, I've got the same Samsung monitor! :D

@Ema_Punkt 2 года назад

Thanks!! I'm not sure, I love to repair or reuse things but I guess I had a tunnel vision and half way through I started to see the technical issues... At some point I probably have to take a look at that, so thanks for the tip! :)

@Stelios.Posantzis 2 года назад

@@Ema_Punkt I think you use a mirror to set that. Basically, you place the mirror on the mat, make sure it's perfectly flat, and move the arm placing it above the mirror, then lower it till the stylus rests on the mirror. Then, looking at the cartridge head on, with your eyes as level with the cartridge as possible, the stylus and its reflection should appear as one straight line. Or something along those lines... ;) At least you got good practice at making a wooden plinth!
