How to go about getting a new arm board for a new tonearm

I have a VPI TNT Jr. with the upgraded motor, super platter, motor controller, 10 inch JMW arm, peripheral ring.  It sounds decent enough but I hate the tonearm.  (The wobbly unipivot - just fed up with the design).  I would not get another VPI arm.  My question is, I have the VPI table with the rectangular arm board.  How do I go about getting a new arm board for a new tonearm?  I'd like a Tri-Planer or a Graham but not sure who to look at to get the armboard.  I doubt VPI would send me an armboard for another manufacturers arm.  I would love some direction.

Thanks guys!

My complaints with VPI started many years ago when my emails went over a year without being answered to.  Simple things....  Everyone says their customer service is 'spotty'.  No one says its awesome and you never need to follow up.  Even my dealer does not like dealing with them!

Yep.  That's Matt.  That apple fell pretty far from the tree.

@cerrot well now I have a better understanding for your posts from a different thread.  Send me an email at mat@vpiindustries.com and I'll get you a TNT armboard.  We have the specs for Graham mounting but if it is for Tri-Planar we would need that info.

I'll ignore the last post you made since if I was in your spot I would be pretty pissed also.  

@jaybe sorry about whatever I missed, feel free to reach out to me again (I'm not sure who you are in my email) if you are still having a problem with your turntable.
