Well, I simply balanced the arm statically and used pieces of printer-paper cut up into little squares and added them to the head-shell, with quite a bit of trial-and-error nudging the arm with a strip of paper.I have to confess, not definitive, and more honestly, I'd put the vertical stiction bewteen 1/30th and 1/50th g.
Horizontal sticton is an even rougher guestimate, as I had muck around trying to balance the residual anti-skate, but the arm swings identically in both planes when held vertically, if you see what I mean.
