charclem Posted May 10, 2018 Share Posted May 10, 2018 Hello everybody, I've launched a kickstarter campaign to manufacture handmade wood 45 RPM adapter: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/2088876653/woood-handmade-wood-45-rpm-adapter To listen to your new 45 RPM vinyl, a rare find that you unearthed at your favourite record shop, you need a 45 RPM adapter. But the ones you have now are common: a generic black plastic piece just like any black plastic pieces around the world. You deserve better. We choose to make our adapter from wood because wood is classy, wood is beautiful, it's warm, each piece tells a story. Every grain on the wood and the craftsmanship applied to it make each Woood unique. Woood adapters are hand-turned by a local artisan. A guy who loves his job as much as you love your vinyl. As much as we all love music. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slinch Posted May 10, 2018 Share Posted May 10, 2018 (edited) What makes these a better choice than something like any of these at a fraction of the price? https://www.ebay.co.uk/sch/m.html?_odkw=adaptr&_ssn=record-stabilizers&item=332642668400&_osacat=0&_from=R40&_trksid=p2046732.m570.l1313.TR0.TRC0.H0.Xadapter.TRS0&_nkw=adapter&_sacat=0 Edited May 10, 2018 by slinch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oblivions Posted May 10, 2018 Share Posted May 10, 2018 Not for me, as all I need is a little plastic circle, but it seems some people are into the kind of personal labor that goes into these. Congrats on getting the pledges you've received so far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
