Sean, thanks for the tip regarding Reed mint protractor and Graham. I did not realize that both has the same 295.6 PtS and 308.8 effective lenght. I checked briefly with Mint and was surprise as to the difference between Graham's own tool and Mint. I will try to set up carefully with Mint tonight and see. I also have Clearaudio protractor (as I understand, it is the same as Dennesen, I assume with IEC-standard R min 60.325mm, I still have not figure out this whole IEC standard r min thing and the manual is only in German). However, there seems to be no easy way to place the protractor accurately with the set PtS. It seems that Clearaudio and Mint are closer to each other than Graham's by quite a bit.
Graham Phantom II 12" - dimensions and overhang
Hello guys,
I come from Europe and recently purchased Graham Phantom II tonearm with 12" armwand.I was missing specs for 12" armwand (in manual are specs for 9" and 10"),so I emailed to Bob Graham and asked him for specs for 12" version. The answer was,that 12" version should be adjusted same as SME V 12". Bob sent me document with SME dimensions as well.
So regarding this document specs are Leff 308,8, overhang 13,2, mounting distance ( Pivot-Spindle) 295,6.
To adjust mounting distance is easy using any quality protractor. I used Acoustic Solid.

So with mounting distance adjusted to 295,6,here comes the thing.
I should set overhang to 13,2 regarding to specs for SME V 12",but simply
