I started this project about a year and a half ago, and then never finished it. Well I got inspired, and have just tonight finished the build.
The deck started life as a light steel platter deck, and now has been converted to a heavy double platter stacker deck, with heavy platter bearing and a custom bearing brace to support the load.. The platters weigh in at about 18lbs for the pair.
I just finished this at 9pm tonight. Back sore, arms sore, coughing from dust. I'm going to bed. Tomorrow will be listening day - well all weekend, actually.
This is my 1963 Bogen-Presto BP51 (Lenco B51) - aka, the BP51HPmod_stacker:
Bearing load carrier bar, to carry load of two platters:
