Default Re: Platter spindle on Garrard Zero100s not centered

Does the platter rotate evenly or is there some vertical up/down movement at it's outer edges? If it does have some up/down rotational movement then it suggests the bearing or it's mounting or possibly the part of the platter being uneven where it sits on the bearing, which in turn could be causing the spindle to wobble. It might possibly be down to a deformed platter. A small block with a 90 degree edge, could be used to check that the spindle and platter are true with each other, then move on to the bearing mount and the part of the platter that rotates on it. Hope that makes sense.
