I totally love it. Was it tough to cut? What blade did you use? Did you put it on top of wood? dave

Dave:

I find your reply amusing

Were you breathing at all when you were typing your reply

You sound like a kid in a candy store..............lol

But you did ask all the right questions.

You beat me to it

I used a #1 skip tooth to cut it. I found going very slow doesn't work. I sped up to about 7 and had no problems. I just cut it on the saw like I do everything else.  A few times it was a little jumpy and had to be careful but it came out alright, maybe  doing it on a piece of wood will be better-good idea. I got the record from a co-worker it wasn't a Beatles album. If I can get some other records I'm going to try Abbey Road and a few others.  There are no special colors added I used a piece of copy paper to set under it the rest I guess is just shadow, I had set it on my desk in the kitchen. I did have to be careful turning corners too but stayed on the scrap side and it came out better.  The other color may also be the center, my daughter painted it black for me it was blue.

I'm thinking thick cardboard might work also instead of wood for support

I will try it when time permits

That is awesome, really like the pattern selected and the way it looks on the record.  Well done, thanks for sharing it with us and giving us the info on how you did it.  A while back I traded a guy a cutting for about 400 LP's in had he was not doing anything with.  Still got most of them.  Finally a use.

I'm thinking you could print any label you wanted and stick over the old label.  Its not like anyone is going to play it and know the difference.  You might get yelled at for destroying a beatles album tho.  :)
