! i just got back from london and realized that 3 out of the 16 vinyl that i had bought got bent/warped on the way back. > so freakin' annoying......2 are promos too. dammit. they were potential new songs that i was gonna put on a new demo. ugh...

i tried flattening them between two wooden boards, even ironing them out under some cloth then flattening.....to no avail. this sux.

thanks for listening to my rant. enjoy your day cuz i hate mine. :mad:

ok do this..get to big pieces of glass put the record between the glass..and set the record outside.
for like 30 minutes if its really hot..if its not..try an hour or so..as long as there is heat..
then take it inside..but leave it together..and let it cool down..and it should flatten it..the record may not be perfect..but its better then what u got :)

Ok, basically what Mike said, but my friend had the same problem so he laid the vinyl on glass and heated it with a hair dryer and placed another panel of glass on top.

thanks for the input guys...i'll try the glass/hair dryer thing when i get that. hehe...i got short hair, why the hell would i have a hair dryer!? :)

btw, it was in my hand luggage...methinks it got bent when i put it in the overhead compartment. blaaaaahh...

oh, in case u were wondering, the records were:

Emma Doubell - Corestar One
RT Project - The Weekend (Volts Wagen Rmx) <-- whitey
Nightlife - Shining Star
Supreme DJs vs P Mac - Transducer/Projections
SynRG888
! Sorry to hear that Jon!:(

Anyways I hope that glass thing works out for you.... that shouldn't up the track on the vinyl right? Anyways you should pm me or some when the new demo is out.

Peace!
