Subject:: (idm) warped records

Sorry to plug the list with this thread, trust me, it's the last thing i want to do. I just received 2 warped records in the mail the other day, the original owner claiming that they were "mint" before shipping. Has anyone "de-warped" a slab of vinyl? Please direct all comments off-list, so as not to spread the bandwidth any further with non-idm content. (Although the records we're talking about are by the folks at Emanate..) Thanks in advance..

The public library I work at used to dewarp their records (rather than throw away a 10record opera set because one was warped, for instance): You can heat the record in the oven (on very low!) and put it between two peices of thick glass when it gets saggy, then stack about 10 encyclopedias (okay, "Books of Knowledge"-series technically...) on it and leave it for 12 hours. I take no responsibility for what happens tho'! Solenoid On Mon, 23 Aug 1999, `Pietro wrote:

Or you can just put the record between two plates of glass and leave it out in the sun (or your grow-lights, shame on you!) if you remember to flip it after a while. Worked on my wasted Astrud Gilberto wax! :) vanessa On Fri, 27 Aug 1999, solenoid wrote:
