As a service to vinyl fans Iam posting it.
Its a DIY arm, benefits are obvious.
Dismiss the depressing music:

Thanks for posting this FRM, it's an ingenious approach.  I haven't had time to read the whole thing, but I will.  First we had mechanically driven linear arms, then air bearing arms, but I think this might be the first water bearing?
