 | JOHN 1935 Member since Oct 2017 6 Points | Not wishing to see 'Mistinguett' and Fred Mele's Sinfonic Jazz destroyed due to a widening hole in the center of the Odeon KI 1676 x !! Is there a way of repairing ? Record is only a few years older than I - so would love to know for the future !! YouT gives ideas on vinyl but not ( that I can find) -Shellac. Best JOHN 1935 |

 | Juke Jules SUBS Tell me he's lazy, tell me he's slow Member since Jan 2011 4138 Points Moderator | It's a bit worrying that the hole is getting worn larger, I mean,you are playing it on a wind-up gramophone but if the record is perfectly centred there should be no sideways forces from the spindle. Anyway, I have no suggestions, but a) ensure the repair will centre the record accurately, and b) practice the repair on an old and unwanted record! - Jules |

| JOHN 1935 Member since Oct 2017 6 Points | Got your point, but had just picked it up, with others from Sunday's Vide grenier and having forgotten my reading glasses - though general state was quite good ( and they were for a euro each!) missed it; Will try the clear labels, and let wifey know not to pulverize anymore slate and limestone. Thank you both Best John |

| j.monk Member since Sep 2017 167 Points | This kind of tool should help maintain the record steady too. The record will stay untouched. And that's very helpful with Hits Of The Week records - if you have some ! |

For UK Buyers I have something similar to this that works well with 33/45/78's. |
