I used to do similar when I was a kid. Wrap a piece of A4 paper into a cone. Poke a pin through the small end so it sticks out the other side. Set your dansette to play, but lift the tone arm off - and use the pin in the cone for a stylus. It does work.

I used to do this too (later on, you find out that this also ruins the record :shocked: )
But, it's fun to do :pleased:
I I fully intend to try again, now I have lots of battered unwanted vinyl to test it on.

(EDIT: to bring this back on topic)
Even if a 'modern' record has only one side that spins at 78rpm, then in my opinion it belongs on 78rpm world, with a corresponding entry elsewhere if appropriate for the other side (obviously both sides should be listed on both entries, Notes and images helpful to explain).
