So unlike the each boys, I'm NOT picking up good vibrations, but rather
some really bad ones!

The platter is no longer turning smoothly during spin-up.. it hits a
"rumble" point at a certain RPM and starts to shake the table. I think
it may have something to do with the fact that I secured the bucket
tonight to the bottom of the RSA machine..

I wonder if having it free to "slide" made it possible for the bucket to
oscillate slightly to offset the unbalance in the turntable... hmmm..

I guess I can pull the screws out tomorrow night b4 dorkbot.. but DANG
what a bummer! :(


Hey Rick! Will u b there tomorrow night?? Maybe u can have a look-see ... :)
