DIY Custom Made Turntables, some doubts..


Hello to all!

Please, someone can explain me how is the process of assemble a turntable when you purchase or DIY the cabinet, purchase a direct driver platter motor, like a Denon or JVC for example, and separated tonearm.

How projects like this works, in order to assemble the turntable with the tonearms correct distance in relation to the platter, in order to work properly?

I presume that tonearms that are sold separately, have all the instructions how to be installed in the correct position, is that right?

Just a example: http://www.aroundhifi.com/tag/turntable/

Many thanks, best regards to all, and feel free to tell me another technical infos that must be considered.

millercarbon. When I saw cosmicjazz's post I was excited we would discuss a the design and construction of a high end custom TT. Your's is magnificent! I want to design and build a custom TT along the lines of a Micro Seiki 8000. Single tonearm. I can build the Plinth and Platter.  Should I start with the Drive and Power Supply? As I thought cosmicjazz was asking, where does one start with this? budget would be about $10,000.
