WANTED: Lid Support for VTLA - Saw Tooth Style

Post by CDBPDX »

I need one last piece to complete my VTLA, a lid support, the saw tooth style. Any spares?

Thanks! Cliff

I've heard people say they aren't difficult to make if you have a template. Maybe that could be an option if you have trouble finding one?

I found it! I was doing some cabinet work and turned it upside down and the sawtooth lid support fell out from behind the record storage wall. It was horribly bent and had apparently been laying for many years in the crud that accumulates at the bottom of this area, but it straightened out nicely and most of the crud is gone.

The end pieces were still attached to the lid and phono deck, now all the parts are once again reunited!

YeeHaa!
