Any Warp correction LP services available ?

I am aware that there is a record warp flattening system being marketed for about two thousand bucks.I've tried to get my "El Cheapo" audio pals to chip in for it,so we can all benefit,with the occassional warped "Rare Gem" that can be so difficult to replace in perfect shape.No such luck!They'd rather spend 300 bucks for a signed copy of Ida Haendl doing the Sibelius!!

Does anyone know of a reliable "vendor" that might offer a per LP service,to have this done to our beloved,yet slightly warped records.I,for one, would love to see this offered by people like Accoustic Sounds,or The Elusive Disc.

How about it?

I bet a few of your audiobuds will help you fund this venture. Count me in for a share...

The temperetaure you want to shoot for is 150 degrees.
I have done the oven trick with two thick pices of glass. There is some good info on Audio Asylum.

Sirspeedy,

I would be willing to join in for either the photographic press or the 2,000.00 record version if you find enough club members.

I'd be willing to ante up if we could get enough folks interested to get the cost per down to a reasonable level. I also have a couple of good 'tater chip LP's to experiment on.

Assuming this works and we do get one, how to we handle this? I mean, should we all just send our warpies to some poor soul who gets stuck being the keeper of the press?
