"I've head of at least one guy who used to oval the center hole so he could self center the LP's....a bit radical to my thinking."
I've done that on occasion and it's not too difficult if you keep a small round file handy to do it with. Once I'm satisfied I've corrected the eccentricity, I mark with a dot or small arrow on the label right next to the spot where the new radius should contact the spindle. Then I just gently press the LP against the spindle in that direction before starting to play the side.
