turntable rework #23
Description
issues with current design:
- backlash -- this stems from poor gears and stepper motor placement.
- too thicc -- the turntable's vertical height can be reduced greatly
- noisy -- mostly hollow design in the base of the turntable exacerbates resonant frequencies. Plus stepper mounting position affects noise too.
- expensive -- have to buy slew ring bearing.
okay things with current design:
- No backdriving (because of worm gear)!!!!
- Easy bottom-up assembly
Proposal:
Create a completely new turntable architecture that is quiet, low-profile, and robust. Also maintaining ease of assembly and aesthetics.
