Made of ultrasonic washer from China, low rpm motor from China, help from a good carpenter and parts from an old data-printer. Cost less than 200£.

I collect the water from a dehumidifier (In reply to using freezer ice !! lol)

Tempered water from the tap with å drop of dishwasher makes my records as new. Even new records get better.

Dishwasher.....rinse aid?

Dishwasher.....rinse aid?

I mean the soap you use when washing the dishes. Was it wrong?

Having only seen photos of rcm's and nobody explaining how they work, I made my own, a nos lenco belt drive that I used the chassis and sub platter, with a 15rpm reverseable motor and VPI suction piece, coupled to a wet vac. I spray some record cleaning liquid on and then spread it with a brush, then vac it dry. Results are not that good. So thinking to buy a proper one, but would like a more detailed explanation of how yours works, rather than just " I've got xyz and it works fine "
On the other hand what should I be doing that perhaps I'm not that would improve my results, the vac works fine.

I bought the Moth RCM kit Years ago (maybe 10yrs) The wooden chassis takes a bit of effort and time cut it correctly . When finally assembled it has very good power and cleans well. It is also convenient and easy to use. There's a strong motor that sucks the air out of a sealed box. in this box is the waste fluid reservoir connected to the pipe that dries the record. It took me a long while to realise it is worth buying proper formulated solution like L'art du son. which I now use because I get much better sounding records
