Default Making your own reel to reel tapes from Original LP Recordings!!!!

I have been thinking about making my own Reel to Reel tapes from the Original Vinyl recordings. I am wondering if the result would be as good or close to being as good as those tapes being made by THE TAPE PROJECT and others companies? I am not looking for the perfection that The Tape Project and others can make. I am only looking for a good quality reel to reel recorded tape. With this in mind; Here are some questions and concerns.

- Other than the quality of the reel to reel machines being used, what techniques do the high end reel to reel recording companies use to make their tapes?

- What recording techniques should I use in trying to come close to those that are being used by such companies as The Tape Project?

- What blank tape do you reccomend for such a recording project as mine?

-Is there anyone out there in AudioAficionado land that has or is doing this?

Any comments or ideas would be greatly welcomed/
