Well I still don't know... Got a bit savage with some wire wool and isopropyl on the inner rim and spindle- my imagination or is it a wee bit better? I see my other platter gets nicely 'stuck' to the bearing spindle as its a bit oiley in the platter bush- might put some oil on the iffy one as its dr...

Well I feel like a prize nana..! The Sidcup machine shop was a step back in time to around 1863-alright, 1963, lovely vintage British made equipment and a small workforce who looked.. well, ..very experienced shall we say. One chap bolted up my platter to a faceplate and centred the spindle hole wit...

Hi again The 'ding' is ever so slight but the paint is chipped below the strobe markings as if the platter had hit a 'corner' of something and its barely just discernible visibly when spinning.

401 platter 'dinged'- can it be skimmed?!
After cleaning out and oiling the motor & bearing I've finally figured out why I've always had speed stability problems with this 401- the platter has been dropped at some time in its life and there's a subtle 'ding' in it I can just see when its spinning. Also, swapping out just the platter sol...
