My suspicion is that while this International version only requires a fuse re-positioning to accomodate voltage changes and a change to the pattern for the strobe images, it requires a different wheel somewhere in the drive system to overcome the power supply cycle difference. But even with it set as low as it can go, the speed is too fast, with both 33.3 and 45 rpm settings. I have checked underneath to make sure the minor speed control adjustment is able to travel as far as it physically can, and it is functioning as designed. I was about ready to start the tweaking and new plinth building process, but I did not expect to encounter problems with the speed after moving the voltage jumpers (fuses) to their correct positions. It just goes over the original 50Hz strobe donut sticker already on the underside of the platter. This paper donut sticker originally came with the unit, and was given to me by the original owner when he gave me the turntable. The only change I have made is to attach the 60Hz strobe pattern donut to the underside of the platter.
With one neglible exception, everything is still original on this unit, including the magnificent plastic-&-cardboard plinth.
Everything worked fine in England where I acquired it, but now that I have finally gotten around to unpacking it and coverting it for North American use, it is playing too fast. The Synchro-Lab motor in inscribed with the usual international blessings for 120 V/60Hz and 240V/50Hz, and the power cord inputs have little copper wire jumpers (what used to pass for a fuse in Britain) with guidance diagrams - hence the International designation.

Our quote to you will call out exact fabrication details. If you are looking for a well-made turntable cover at a fair price you've found the right place. Heat forming and flame polishing are not meant to be used for turntable covers when you expect quality of fit, strength, appearance and longevity. Flame polishing also pre cures the bond lines making them brittle! Heat forming and flame polishing is meant to be used on large quantities of cheap small retail store displays that are thrown out after a years use. Heat is an enemy of acrylic!
