Its absolutely not the way to do customer service at all. I will keep my Ultradeck, but after that no more MoFi sadly. I should too.. Send them a bill. But, when it works and has no issues its a fine table, no question about that.

I will chime in: My first StudioDeck had to have the bearing and platter replaced (by me) but first a whole month of testing.. For MoFi as they wanted ME to troubleshoot first. After a month they sent a new platter and bearing. What sort of customer care is that? Even the store i bought it at...

Squeeze on to a qtip and then apply it in the bearing. Is that the correct way? Or is there a better way?

I had just enough on and it still has not settled. 🙄 Removed some more exessive grease now so lets see now.

I regreased the bearing on my UD today, how long does it take to settle?

Ah, i use no mat on my Ultradeck 👍

Any tips for 180gr records? Maybe a thinner felt mat?

And on a few 180gr records. But that is hit and miss really.

Worked at thinner records actually :) But, should i use it with a mat? Or is it safe to use with the delrin platter on my Ultradeck?

The records in question have an upwards bow from the center. Not very serious, but enough to cause the arm to ride up and down.. I bought one now, so ill inform you of my findings 👍

Hi, im considering getting the Michell Clamp - but before buying it: Does it actually help flattening somewhat warped records?

Trying to find the best sounding Fresh Cream LP. What do you recommend? I did have a 2015 remaster a few years ago, which i thought sounded fine. Also angling for a DCC, but not sure..

Hi, ive had a series of misfortune where old records stored properly upright have over time developed warps. Have they previously been stored badly, perhaps in a damp environment? Or too tight? And then due to proper storage gotten relief and then warped?

And i got a hygrometer / thermometer. Relative Humidty is at 21% and temps are at 20,8C

" Just throwing this out there but most likely the sleeves are "leeching" plasticizer. It's a stabilizer that seeps out and can cause other materials to degrade or warp. The loss of plasticizers also contribute to the sleeves "drying out"" I guess thats a plausible explanation.. i had to keep...

Yap, regular drying rack. If humidity had a play, i guess mold-growth and other nasty growth would be an issue and of course, the record covers would start to smell.. Most of the PVC-sleeves had started to deform, due to gassing i guess, and perhaps shrunk and therefore caused strain on the 7"...

The clothes-drying rack is abit too close, due to space in the apartment. - but about a meter from the second storage box of singles. Would that alone affect some singles, but not all of them? Or has this caused the pvc-sleeves to react?

Will humidity cause any warping? Or just mold growth?

Another apartment. No heatsource. And as i wrote - records in polyline sleeves were unaffected. I noted that the pvc sleeves had developed warps themselves and sort of stuck on to the covers. And they were stored inbetween pvc sleeved 7". So random order. I live in Norway, so we just had...

In a record-shelf and a wooden box for 7" records. At two separat places in the livingroom. With normal temperatures in the 20's and away from direct sunlight. They were stored in a random order. But common for them was the 7" thick pvc sleeves. The ones that survived were in 7" polyline sleeves.
