I considered getting one because of the price (and I see they are available at Andrews now) but in the end went for a current model paracorr from astromart instead (price difference was small).
Thanks for that JethroB76. I seem to remember something along the same lines. I believe a CN member called Skycaptain fabricated a little device to get an affect similar to Turnable top from TV.

I cannot locate that post on CN. Do you happen to remember when it was posted?

Thanks and regards
