Diy record cleaning machine used with vac

I think I might have a simpler solution to your top clamp part as I have one of these Michell Record clamps (it screws onto the record spindle)



It's just how to make the bottom part somehow I haven't seen washers that size in Homebase And then its a question of attaching it to the motor spindle. Did you turn that part on your lathe I was it something simple you had knocking around?

Yes david i made them on the lathe, i like your record clamp idea, the shaft on
the motor is 8mm with a flat so i start with a piece of say 15mm solid bar
put an 8mm hole in one end, then put a 4mm grub screw thread into side to
tighten down on the flat, thats one end dealt with the other end has to be a certain size in lenth then turn down to record spindle size for your clamp,
then a large washer in say 5mm aluminium to fit the record size spindle.
