Free Two Point Cartridge Alignment Protractor


NEW: Yugoslavia and Spain distributors added PLUS MS Excel Spreadsheet
to make your own protractor now online! We still offer our
ready-made protractors below from our worldwide
distributors:

This protractor tool is used for your vinyl turntable to
insure proper alignment of the cartridge on your tonearm.
This version is printed on a high quality cardboard sheet 4
inches wide by 7 inches long (DL or a C5 envelope for my
European and overseas friends). All i ask is that you send
your request with a self addressed stamped envelope that
will fit the protractor to the dude nearest to you. Below is

A most humble thanks go out to the above cool dudes
for their assistance with distributing the two point
alignment tool. My deepest gratitude goes out to ALL of
them. They have donated their time and efforts FOR FREE to
save my worldwide friends money due to mailing costs to the
USA. They have already received their supply of protractors
so it's time to party. i have humbly instructed them, since
some of them are major distributors, company owners, etc. to
NOT send ANY other literature with the protractors, nor to
add you to their mailing list. The ONLY thing you should
receive is the 2 point cartridge alignment protractor.


We have also made available an Excel spreadsheet for those
who desire to experiment and make their very own protractor!
Please see the Enjoy the Music.com Free Stuff page at
http://www.enjoythemusic.com/freestuff.htm . If ANYONE has
any questions or problems, please let me know. ALWAYS glad
to be of service.

After all, what REALLY matters to me is that you...


Enjoy the music,

FREE Cartridge Alignment Tool


Interesting idea.

Here's a free turntable speed checker. Click the link, print the
file, punch a hole in the middle of it, place it on your turntable
and make sure that the bars appear to be standing still under a 60 Hz
light.

If you want to print the high resolution version, you may have to
resize it for printing using a graphics program like Paint Shop Pro
or Corel Photo Paint.

it's been done. see http://quadesl.com/pdf/strobe.pdf

Sheldon did a .pdf file with both 50 and 60 Hz printouts. .pdf means that
regardless of your system or printer, it will be the right size.

Nice.

Where was this when I needed it? The problem seems to be the lack of
descriptive HTML text that makes it readily searchable, note.

On a good day PDF's work that way. On the other days...

Strobo tool-scan of Lenco original is uploaded on ABPR,ABRP and ABSE; file is PDF-about 200Kb.
maybe is good idea to print it on back side of your protractor tool?
