Need help with tracking vinyl

That's a great idea for your old LP's that are past reclaiming. I've got a few LP's I might use to make "bowls" for a few analog-heads I know...

With a wad of Blue-Tac the concept will be leak-proof! :-)

This reminds me of a "project" my sisters did back in the late-60's. They left LP's in the sun and in various oven temperatures to soften. Then, they molded them in wavy bowl-shapes. Painted, ribboned, and glittered then in myriad ways and sold them at craft fairs as fruit/candy bowls. I don't even want to KNOW what LP's were used to this end.

Looks like a typical Columbia pressing to me, should play as well as most.

The question is, how did this lp get so warped? I hope all your other goodies are safe.

Sounds like you need to search eBay for another pressing of that lp.
Even if I have a pressing with only a slight warp, it still bugs me to see my arm going up and down thacking the warp.
and I trash it for a new one.

Yes I am now, real picky, even If the cover has a seamsplit, or the slightest wear I will search out a new copy. Most times a japaese pressing for my colection.
