Soundlab DLP 1's (belt drive-tastic). . . with little watchmakers screwdrivers for the pitch controls cuz the sliders are knackered please. Once upon a time I could actually mix and scratch a little on my old beauties ... getting a little nostalgic thinking about it. Time for bed, just driven 255 miles and feel like I'm tripping.

As Steve-o said it's really a matter of Blacks or silvers. I've always had 1200's so for some strange reason i prefer using em over 1210's.
Another good thing i've found with my 1200's is because they're lighter they can be written on better. Got one of my decks signed by Flash, Herc and Bam.
Don't know if this'll come in handy P, have a gander. It's the turntable watch from HTFR.

I don't know about the other stuff there but i'd never buy any music from HTFR, at least any 12"s because out of the 3 "genuine" vinyls i ever got from there, 2 ended up being fake bootlegs made out of mp3s with awful sound quality, ripped from some DJ sets and 1 arrived as smashed into pieces due inferior packing. They're even infamous for doing that for years, selling fake bootleg releases as (supposedly) "official" whitelabels and even as commercial releases. I'd not trust them with anything anymore tho.
Doing nothing is very hard to do... you never know when you're finished.

Never bought any vinyl off them cos they're stupid expensive. Picked up some bits of equipment off them for a decent price though.

Yeah, cheap as shit but not made of Silver.
I've seen a few bits and bobs about but it mostly seems to be cold shit apart from Touch's piece.

Nearly finished the 1210 but I need a large photograph of the back side of the arm, where the weight is.
Can someone take a photo and post it for me please ?
Nice one.

Yeah but from right round the back of it, as if you were looking down the arm towards the record from directly behind the arm weight.

no, he simply turned it, quite common among turntablists, because it gives more weight.
