Hmm. I really can't see that that will work but then I've never tried it. As far as I can see if you get any motive power at all it would have an extremely soft speed / torque characteristic which translates to poor speed stability. I think the lesson to be learnt from the Garrard experience is that motor decoupling is a furphy foisted on us by the proponents of belt drive.I have built several magnetically coupled drives and they are harder to get right than they look. If you like I can run one of my NdFeB magnet drives on the Garrard platter to see if there's any drive.
