I'm cleaning records - didn't think I'd ever get sick of the sight of them :scratch:

Already cleaned the stack of my new ones, wondering whats next!

Oh, I waxed the cabinets of my speakers, been meaning to for a while. :D
Came up great, nicer pieces of furniture now.

Music wise, looking forward to digging into the weirder corners of my vinyl collection...

Haha, I’d posted a link to my son’s household doing an impromptu ‘window-ledge’ gig but they pulled the video just after I posted the link (bloody picky professionals) [emoji23]

Beginning to wish that I had purchased a RCM, which I meant to do last month, would have kept me busy, maybe start looking online and see if any are available.

Fortunately Juno's still delivering, so this is today's isolation listening:

Coloured vinyl has no place in my collection, apart from black of course. Vinyl (polyvinyl chloride) is colourless. To make it black, 'carbon black' powder is added to melted PVC. This has the benefit of making it easy to cue the record, but more importantly the carbon powder helps reduce static.

:doh: Don't know why I'm smiling, as static jokes go that was truly shocking. If you see a Whitesides car pull up outside, it's because someone shouted 'Taxi for Neil'

I have a second one i bought for spares, its perfect but the auto returns is not functioning which is odd being mechanical. Auto return is a very important facility for me as i primarily use a TT for 12" singles & like fuc am i jumping up out the seat every time a record side finishes, too bone idle plus i get paranoid about my styli on the run out with manuals, i leave that shit to dopey Audiophiles . Might spend a day trying to sort it tossmorrow.

Wish I'd never sold it.
