• The Emile Berliner Gramophone Turntable

    First, get yourself an old CD, a photograph, a magazine cover, or even a glossy postcard. Place your chosen “smooth, relatively firm material” on the gramophone turntable, talk into the cup, and you’ve got yourself a record. Brilliant! This is a kit, so you’ll have to put it together. You don’t need any special tools or anything, and it takes about an hour. It’s on backorder everywhere, and the company that makes the kits is based in Japan, but this is worth the wait. (Thanks for the tip, Mike!)
