It was my understanding that 12" Graham Engineering arm shares same arm board mounting dimensions as 12" SME arm (V?).

I am trying to experiment with a Nottingham 12" ANNA arm with custom made SME base on a new turntable and eventually get me one of those new Graham Engineering arm.

Anyone with template to cut the arm board for SME 12" arm or info would be appreciated.

Well no one seems to have the SME template and I will have to educate myself in order to cut the arm board.

There can be only be one optimal position for the SME arm mounting base. I will use the arm board hole for both current Anna arm I have and the 12" SME arm (or the latest Graham Eng. arm w/ SME base).

The 12" Anna arm has 294mm and SME 12" arms (300 series and 3012R) have 295.6mm spindle center to tonearm pivot center distance measurements. It will be feasible to slide the arm pivot to accommodate the differences during installation.

Next is to figure out the mounting distance for the SME mounting apparatus to be used by Anna arm.
