It's the last part of a long process

I've been playing with theoretical models of turntable performance for a couple of months now looking at how different approaches interact with one another. I am in the process of building a prototype of a new table that incorporates the ideas that came out of this, so we'll see how well theory and practice agree shortly.

As you are probably aware speed stability has been an interest of mine for a while. Every time I achieve better speed stability I like the results, so I think it's worth pursuing until I stop being able to hear the difference.

The remaining unsolved aspects are lathe performance and disc centring. Nothing I can do about the lathe, something I can do about centring. Making a re-centrable platter with micron level positioning accuracy is surprisingly easy and cheap to do. Measuring where it needs to be is tricky.
