Millenium Falcon Turntable: Wookie Wookie

In a club far, far away, Marco of Picotek Design must be wowing the crowd not just with his beats but with his one-of-a-kind gear as well. His highly modified turntable is based on another highly modified piece of equipment: the freighter-turned-smuggler’s ship Millenium Falcon.

Marco said he stumbled upon the toy replica of Han Solo’s ship and got it for a mere $2 (USD), albeit with some of its parts missing. He stowed it away for a couple of years, then one day decided to combine it with another relic from the 70s, a Technics 1200 turntable. Marco says he’ll upload more pictures of the turntable soon.

Look At This Wicked Technics Inspired Motorcycle

In case you haven’t picked up on it by now: Anything goes at CES. But at least this collaboration between Technics and custom bike builder Roland Sands is easy on the eyes and ears. Inspired by the Technics DH1-1200 and SL-1200MK2 turntables, Sands reworked a Harley Davidson Iron 883 and I’d say he nailed it. I don’t like Harleys at all but I am a fan of Sands, so I’d be down with this ride. And if you’re wondering who that Billy Ray Cyrus lookalike in the video is, it’s Andy Bell of Nitro Circus fame.
