IanRees Posted December 28, 2012 Share Posted December 28, 2012 Holy hell is this dumb, but kind of awesome at the same time "One of the biggest challenges was that the bubbles made the ice cloudy and messed up the tiny tracks, which made the needle jump." Further trial and error revealed that using distilled water did the trick, giving the final product a nice clarity and even surface. Another insight? Time is not, in fact, on your side when working with a frozen substance; functionality and sound quality diminish immediately once the melting starts. A silicone cast allowed for quick and easy record removal, essential to ensuring it could be used straight out of the freezer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
