Does anyone have any experience with the turntable from Bowser?

Have one, love it ! Wish Atlas had built their roundhouse closer, though. If you get one, you'll need a separate DC transformer for speed control : there is an included rectifier, but tinplate AC transformers don't go down low enough for the best speed (about 5V). I think it's the best new accessory in the hobby for years.

ATLAS TURNTABLE

I'm thinking about getting an Atlas turntable and would like to hear from anyone who has one. I know they tear up a lot of realestate but other than that how would you rate it?
