Welcome Licorice Pizza (LP) lovers! Setup guides and Vinyl FAQ.

I'm not a machinist. What do you inmates think about this?

Is there any way to service this steel platter spindle for the wear from the bearing? It looks as if there may be a dissimilar piece pressed into the center of the shaft where the bearing wear is. The center is slightly darker in color than the surrounding metal.

Would bonding a thin thrust plate to the end of the spindle work? Check out the link. They come in every diameter you could ever want.It doesn't look like it would be a problem for the idler action mechanically, but what the hell do I know?
