How do you take a measurement to check if your tonearm is DIY built to its best?

Anyone's guess if the tonearm is actually 21.5" long?

Check the bearing friction, both horizontal and vertical.

I can confirm, I made it myself. It's carbon

So what exactly is the problem then?

no problem, just do some kind of check/measurement - if that's possible. the only one i know of is to do a microphone measurement from the speakers with the rega rb300 arm and the 21.5" one which has its own base separate from the linn sondek base.
