You could always use the glue method to clean your records. :crazy: :lol:

fascinating link Cyp thank you!

I would love to have a microscope to see what the vinyl looks like afterwards.

It may be entirely glue free, but I would like to see

 

First thought is what a wait to get clean vinyl and 2nd one is PVA even the builders cheap stuff is not that cheap, 3rd thought is messy, can you imagine lots of wet PVA disks lying around with kid and cat!
Plus you can presumably only clean one side at a time!

- Is just not workable in my opinion!

Missed your question about where the thread goes - It just goes up the suck tube eventually all the way to the jam jar and coils up in the liquid - you can of course pull it out and cut it off whenever you feel like it...

Or smother your records in treacle and put them near an ant hill.

 

Got around to writing up the RCM build after some VinylE'ers asked :-

Ive decided my gonna buy an Okki Nokki machine. I just dont fancy buying all the parts etc for D.I.Y approach and would be expensive to buy a turntable just for record cleaning the shipping fee wouldnt be worth it to Cyprus. Yes its more than i want to pay but i think it will be worth it.

Any suggestions/recomendations on cleaning materials for the machine ie liquid, brush etc?

Would de-ionised water be ok to clean records instead of de-stilled water? Just i cant find de-stilled water at a reasonable price and de-ionised water is cheap.
