I'd say you definitely need a headshell offset.

I love Hendrix for so many reasons. He was so much more than just a blues guitarist - he played damn well any kind of guitar he wanted. In fact I'm not sure if he even played the guitar - he played music. - Stevie Ray Vaughan

'Tis done!!Such simplicity

However, I am unsure about the wire exit. Does anyone know which is best - top or bottom?? The wires will need looping in some way to avoid interfering with the arm movement. I am going to use very lightweight litz leads. The exit will be as close to the pivot point as I can manage of course.

Exit the wires on the side nearest the platter just ahead of the pivot and coil them many times, then adjust the 'springyness' of the coils to use them to apply anti-skating force.
It is impossible for anything digital to sound analogue, because it isn't analogue!

There you go Alan, just for you, headshell done proper.
Tracks at least. Just waiting for an arm rewire kit as I don't have anything long enough at present. Then we will see how it sounds!!

“Nothing discloses real character like the use of power. It is easy for the weak to be gentle. Most people can bear adversity. But if you wish to know what a man really is, give him power. This is the supreme test. It is the glory of Lincoln that, having almost absolute power, he never abused it, except on the side of mercy".
“You see these dictators on their pedestals, surrounded by the bayonets of their soldiers and the truncheons of their police ... yet in their hearts there is unspoken fear. They are afraid of words and thoughts: words spoken abroad, thoughts stirring at home -- all the more powerful because forbidden -- terrify them. A little mouse of thought appears in the room, and even the mightiest potentates are thrown into panic.”

ART
It will be prettier once I can prove it works (wiring on the way) and then I'll finish the woodwork. I have a suitable piece of worktop left over from the kitchen. The plinth is going to have to be a little larger than those that house the rather more 'normal' sized arms round here.
