I have a chance to purchase a very nice original lid for my Columbia Q (2nd type). The problem here is that I do not work with wood and would be in need of the nine by six wood base for the current black enameled base to sit on to make this purchase match up correctly. I would prefer an original with the proper receptacles to secure the lid, but would accept a repro if an original was not available. Does anyone out there have one or know where one could be acquired?

To get good playback from Little Wonders, an article I read suggested a styli radii of .0028 (that's what it said worked best for Columbias, and so I thought that would apply to Little Wonders, too). I have a Stanton 500 AL II cartridge that came with both a 78 and diamond stylus, but I can't find the radii figures anywhere. Does anyone know (1) whether the .0028 recommendation is the best for LWs, and (2) what the radii is for my Stanton 78 stylus? Thanks so much!
