charclem 0 Report post Posted May 10 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. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

swb 350 Report post Posted May 10 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. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
