Oh my gog, time for a stupid comment/question-thingy. Oh gog, that just sounded stupid. Ugggghhhhhhhhhhhhh
Well, in the tutorial thingy when you were saying the stuff for people using construction paper, you wrote "omg don't use construction paper. omg just..."
Well, ummmm, I dun get it. What does it mean? Other than that, I luv your tutorial. Look, I'll even write "love" right, just so you know I'm serious. "I love your tutorial>"

it means, don't use construction paper. go out of your way to find legitimate records from a record store. because construction paper is shit and makes for a very "un-quality" prop.

ooh, ok. Cool, I already have, like, 2 boxes full of records.

Can't you just use records that'll work just as well as cut out paper?
π: 0 β©: 1
i used records, as you can see, at the bottom of the tutorial.
but some people can't find records/don't have records/don't feel like spending money on records so i just decided to add that bit. gomen.

Do they actually spin? Or do you know of a way I could get then to do that?
π: 0 β©: 1
Oh they spin alright! Just use fishing line or somethin and attach em to a ring! Then you can spin them to your heart's content
π: 0 β©: 1
DO they spin on their own, or does the fishing line twist to make it spin?
If it does, do you know of way I can make them spin without twisting the line up?
π: 0 β©: 1
it twists up, but that's the point of tying it off to a ring, so that you don't lose all circulation in your fingers. then when it twists it just twists to the ring.
there's not many other ways to make them spin without twisting unless you're using a thicker string or just something that is sturdy. other than physically rigging the record to a small motor of some sort I can't think of anything. it's really just gonna be trial and error

Oh my god you're amazing this is amazing thank you so much! I'm doing a fem!Dave cosplay and I wanted something to make it look like a bit more effort was put in, but I'm so strapped on money that I didn't think that I'd be able to afford anything! I'm going to the dollar store now and putting these together today!

So I used your tutorial to make my timetables.
and um.
THEY'RE AWESOME.
Thanks for posting this. Seriously. Because if you hadn't, I would have been sitting in my front yard stabbing the foam board in confusion. xD

huzzah! I'm glad it worked out for you!!
I'm sure you would have figured it out eventually but it's always nice to have a little guidance!!!
GOOD LUCK WITH THEM AND YOUR COSPLAY! o/

Thanks for all the help! I finished mine the other day but had to use other materials. I used cardboard and styrofoam with fishing string and real records. They look awesome and now I'm ready for the conventions!

Wow, this is really helpful! I'm sure it's going to be great for the person in my group making the turntables!

This is the best tutorial I've seen that is really easy on the wallet. Thanks for putting this up. One question though, what size would the poster board be? I don't wanna go home with not enough board for both turntables.
π: 0 β©: 1
oh god uh...
probably something close to....20x30??
And I had three on hand when making mine...I glued some of the inner pieces together to save money so you could do that.
I'd buy four just to have some room for mistakes.

KK thanks. this is really helpful.

Ahmmggg THIS IS AN AWESOME TUTORIAAALLL~ ;w;
Just a question, is there anyway to keep them spinning without the string getting tangled up? I've heard some people use swivels or something. idk what would be the best to use. o3o
π: 0 β©: 1
Sorry for the late reply because I've been giving my response some thought.
There are not many ways to stop the string from tangling up without seriously changing the design from my tutorial.... I think the best way to reduce it...would be to make the hole that the string goes through a lot wider. This way it doesn't catch and twist up. You could do that and then attach a sort of platform at the bottom...this way there is weight at the end to hold the string steady while the rest of it spins?
It's kind of complex to explain ahahaha does that make sense though?
π: 0 β©: 1
Nah, that's alright. XD
Yeah, I actually understand that and it seems like a good idea to try. 
π: 0 β©: 1
OMG Thank you for making this! I've been wondering how to make those turn tables that can 'float' from your hands, but not rape your fingers with weight. :'D
π: 0 β©: 0
oh by the way! for the notches part you said 2 inches but in the seventh panel you put centimeters
π: 0 β©: 1
let's go with inches :0

i have acrylics instead of spray paint, will that be ok??? how can i apply the acrylic paint so that it's smooth, like no brushstrokes? Could i put it in a bottle or use a sponge O_O
π: 0 β©: 1
Spray paint is really your best bet for something without brushstrokes :0
Though if you use a sponge and acrylics that would be a good second best option! Lots of dabbing and all that.
π: 0 β©: 1
ok thanks! *just got spray paint

Damn this is fly as fuck, bro.
Can't wait to try this out.
Still need to make myself/buy myself a badass sword too. o3o
π: 0 β©: 0
First off, I want to say thank you for this tutorial! I had no clue how I was going to make these XD
Secondly, I just finished making mine for my Fem!Dave cosplay for Anime Expo next month and I used sparkly paint and holy crap they're now sparkly as fuck. xD

HOW EXCITING!!! I'm glad you liked the tutorial and that it worked for you!! I LOOK FORWARD TO SEEING PICTURES! HAVE FUN! 8))
π: 0 β©: 0
D: man! I wish I had this tutorial when I made my turntables! The mosterboard kept braking so I had to use plywood and I put knobs on the bottom of mine...But atleast you could move the records!~ But the downside was I got a huge splinter in my hand.
