    PACIFIC AUDIO FEST

    Sorry for the late reply, but I‘m planning on being there as well. Very excited to have a local show in Seattle. Anil

    Hi @mtemur, I actually tried rotating the mounting plate and it had not helped. As Dave says, it was mostly due to the restriction of the plate from rotating (which also had the side effect of not resulting in the correct overhang as I could not move it forward). I ended up getting the set of...

    Nice, this seems to include the round ribbed nuts, similar to what Dave was mentioning. Out of stock at AcousticSounds, but gives me ideas for what else to search for... Anil

    @dan31, @jadis: unfortunately the nut I have does not fit in the bottom. Unfortunately it's *just* barely too big :-) I probably need to find smaller sized ones. Anil

    Hi jadis: the issue is that even if loosen the top bolt (which I have done to move the plate) I don't have much room to "straighten out" the mounting plate so it's nicely parallel to the grid lines. Anil

    Great, thanks Dave! I will definitely check these out. Do you happen to remember what these are called, so can I search on Amazon? Now that you mentioned filing, it gives me an idea to see if I can knock off some corners of the nuts to give the cartridge mounting plate a little more room to...

    Hi Koetsu experts: I recently got a retipped/rebuilt Onyx Platinum and am trying to mount on my Schroeder CB-9 tonearm with its standard headshell. This is the old style cartridge with unthreaded screw holes, which requires adding nuts to secure it. I'm running into an issue (probably newbie)...

    Spindle thread stuck in record clamp

    Nice, thanks for the tip with two M6 nuts. I didn't know about half-width nut, as that's probably what I would need as I did not have enough threads for two regular M6 nuts. Overall, interesting experience, and I learned a few new tricks :-) Anil

    Spindle thread stuck in record clamp

    Just to close on this: I was able to finally extract it by wrapping the spindle with blue masking tape (of all the things) and using a different set of pliers I had (Knipex Cobra Water Pump Pliers, in case any one else is interested) and it did the trick! I guess blue tape is even stronger...

    Spindle thread stuck in record clamp

    Interesting idea, Mike, I might give it a try if others don't work. Though, I also wonder if the rotation directions will work. Currently, I'm able to screw this on the to fairly heavy platter (which would be a little like running a nut and clamping it) and when I try to unscrew, the spindle...

    Spindle thread stuck in record clamp

    A quick update: it looks like the reverse nut idea may not work. I went to a couple of hardware stores to find an M6 reverse threaded nut, they didn't have them, but the guy at Ace hardware pointed out that I would not be able to even thread the spindle onto a left handed thread as the helical...
