Thorens TD124 dust cover

I have a dustcover coming from these folks. It's 21w x 16d x 6h and is 1/4" thick. It cost $135 shipped - much less than others who charge $2-300 for one. They will notch out for cables, but that will add a lot to the cost. I had them just cut 2-1/2" off across the back and it was a whole lot less. You can calculate the size on their site. I'll post back when I get it.

Yes, please do post and let me know what you think of it. What thickness did you order? I'd think 1/4" would be fine. I'm guessing you have to order it oversized by 1/2", if 1/4" thickness is used so you have your dimensions as an inside size.
I like the easy idea of using a soft cloth but I'm afraid of someone in the house may catch the cloth on my SPU cartridge stylus when I get it installed. Also, I use micro fiber cloths to cover my McIntosh amplifiers and they still get dusty. Every 6 months or so I have to polish them. Southern California is an extremely dusty area.

I think dust will still get through a cloth. And with a cloth, you can't see the table. I like being able to see my gear. The new dust cover is 1/4", and my dimensions are outside dimensions. Just tell them the dimensions you want and those will be the outside dimensions. I used a swifter to dust my old dust cover and it worked great. Every once in a while I use Novus plastic cleaner to polish it. If you call ShopPop, ask for Matt.

Two days ago I received the cover I ordered from Ferrucio through The Analog Dept. I paid a lot for the table and figured why scrimp on a lid and bought the nicest one.

The quality and attention to detail was superb and packing was over the top.

I showed this photo to the shop owner where I got the table who proclaimed it made mine the nicest TD124 in the area.

Those silicone(?) dots at the corners was a very nice touch. Not sure how it’s done but they look as if moulded into the acrylic.
