This is a remix for the [#RemixChallenge](http://www.thingiverse.com/challenges/RemixChallenge) of the Hand Cranked Vinyl Player by Oana.
I had stumbled across this by myself previously and after I saw it was on the Remix Challenge I just knew I had to drop what other things I was printing and get to work on improving it! I enjoy printing mechanical clocks, so I wanted to take a look at all aspects of it and set about making design changes for both the construction and more importantly the functioning of it.
On the design front I knew I wanted to simplify and attach the tonearm to the record player, both to save plastic and to improve portability. To save quite a bit more plastic and printing time I removed the ghosts from the frame (6.5 hours vs 9.2 hours print time!) but I modified it so that it would also print well without supports near the top of the frame.
I initially investigated and printed a [Rotary Governor](http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:17496) instead of a pen
