Have been thinking of putting a second arm on my vpi hrx now for a long while.

The one thing i want to make sure of, was to not alter the table in any way.

Well today i finally installed that second arm.


here are the pics

Thanks for the reply John. I was wondering if acrylic would be a suitable material also? What do you think?Please post a picture once you install the black painted flatform.

Nice work,

i cant see why acrylic wouldnt work.
Will just be a different sound i would assume to using aluminum, steel or timber.

Timber would be the easiest to do though i would say.

Once the second arm board is made for me and painted i'll be sure to post up some pics
