YouTube is turning out to be quite a repository for vinyl weirdness. Enjoy my latest discovery in the Twilight Zone of turntabling–the gent in this video purchased a vinyl record stamper via eBay and decided to see what would happen if he tried to press a record with it using a whole mess of wood glue.

A vinyl stamper isn’t the machine that cranks out the LPs, it’s the “mold” for an individual record–the recorded music etched into the metal surface, ready for a load of melted vinyl to be poured into it and pressed. Since theoretically any liquidy substance that dries into a hardened form could be used, why not try making a 12-inch LP with wood glue? The results? Edisonian, but interesting nonetheless.
