I'm curious, how did you set up your scale to meas. the downward force from the tonearm, armboard, etc.? Did you meas. from the other two positions, i.e, the motor side and the front (center)? Both of those positions have the weight's in the subchassis. I would think in theory that if the subchassis was balanced correctly that the meas. force would be similar at all three points. So if the tonearm side was higher vs. the other two positions you might reduce the weight by the difference between the tonearm side and the approximate average of the others.
