"I just dug my WTT out and decided to get it going again. I bought this WTT in 1987, so I assume it was the first edition, simply known as The Well Tempered Table. I see the silicone has either leaked out of the spindle and the tonearm cup and the table is covered with oily residue. The belt is also broken. How do I go about getting two new syringes of the silicone lubricant? I seem to recall they one for the spindle was lighter in viscosity than the heavier gel used in the tonearm cup. Also, where to buy a new belt?

Thanks!"
