That's the clever bit, leave the record outside the blast zone (just)

iirc, you may have to bend the stylus too.
Are your vinyls 320? if you ripped the vinyl off youtube it can sound warped and you may need to unwarp it in abelton or logic

Yeah but thing is, can't do anything with them at the moment, I might try it with 10 minute intervals of sun.

Don't try putting it the oven at 200 degrees. Doesn't work.
Haven't tried this one but it's supposedly a good one. Get two pieces of heavy plate glass cut at a hardware store or window repair shop. Sandwhich the record between the glass leave in a sunny room for an hour. Leave record between glass move out of sun and allow to cool.
I ussually just bend em back the other way a little. Kind of works

after following some of the realy good advice given in one of the many similar topics to this one, I was left years ago with an even less playable copy of on the anson by sonic & silver, forcing me to buy it again.
today, while cleaning up my record closet, I stumbled upon a few records that I need flat in order not to have to track them down again.
so my question goes: "how heavy", exactly, are those heavy books everyone always goes on about?
sorry if this sounds dumb, but if it does, be happy I'm smart enough still to understand the books I'll use will be wider than 12"
