Here is what i have..A NOS Denon Plinth and motor, home made tone arm board and a home made tone arm. Since some of it is home made i do not have spindle to pivot specs. I need someone to set the tone arm pivot to spindle distance, mount arm to the board, mount my cart and stylus to arm, set weight, anti skid, set cart alignment cart..ect.... Willing to pay, just let me know what you want. I cannot see great anymore and i cannot figure it out myself. I should have studied harder in school..

It is somewhat clumsy to do, but you can mechanically find a spindle to pivot distance by mounting a cartridge (preferably a junker since it might get bonked) in the middle of the adjustment range. Using the protractor your want - Baerwald or whatever - move the arm base around until the cartridge is aligned. Mark the spot, remove arm and drill. Your arm looks like it might be a unipivot, and the wires come out of the top, so it might be possible to lift the arm off the pivot which would make driving it around to align properly easier than with the arm base.
If eyesight is an issue, those magnifying visors are very helpful, and some of them have LED flashlights on them, which makes them heavy, but its easy to see stuff.
