question about felt on turntable

[HisMastersVoice]

...This is one that I did this way, I used an antique green felt that has natural variations in it...

Brandon, Do you happen to remember where you bought the wool felt? Did the felt have a brand name?

I usually see only synthetic felt in the fabric/craft stores. The felt they sell does not come close to the weight or color of the original.

I believe it was JoAnn Fabric. I'm not sure if that's a Michigan store or not. They had a few colors of wool to choose from, but not many. Luckily the antique green was exactly what I wanted. The pool table green I find a bit much.

The one that Jo Ann Fabric has is the same that was discussed somewhere else in the forum. It is also sold online by OneOfTheFlock. Here is a li nk to the moss green one which has the nice antik color variations (they don't show in the picture) http://www.etsy.com/listing/62045960/wo ... -cuts-moss. Oh, make sure you order it "unfelted".
It looks very close to the original Victor felts.
