Those of us into vinyl with precious, old, imperfect, reluctant to play, vinyl records may be interested in this: - If not placed properly, mods please move somewhere more suitable, but not the bin, please . Dave.

When this guy gets his service up and running I think a 'rescued' vinyl pressed to a new one (declicked, denoised, depopped) will likely be paying a substantial amount per vinyl record.
Given the amount of time it takes to remaster and manually 'correct' the original record so it stops hanging or skipping (often more than 1 groove has to be repaired) takes many many hours. A direct cut disc also is pretty expensive to make and takes a lot of time as one can only do 1 side and disc at a time.
I suspect a restored vinyl record (will it have the same label pressed on the inside ?) will probably be between GBP 150 and GBP 500 a copy.
He needs to fork out GBP 5500 only to create the machinery (maybe even more ?) and till now he has only managed to scrape GBP 91 together. He needs to scrape together GBP 5400 in 3 days, if not it is not going to happen.
