Turntable Modification

[patchell]

    I have an old Philips 312 turntable.  I need to run at 78 rpm (this
thing is 33/45 stock).  Since it has a servo control for the platter
speed, I was thinking I could pervert this thing to run at 78.  Has any
body ever attempted this, and if so, were you succesful.  I would not
want to ruin a perfectly good turntable on a fools errand.

    (This is so I can record some old shelac records.  I have found a
source for the stylus and cartridge, I just need a turntable.  Cheapest
new one I have found is $300).
