Hi,

Does anyone know of anywhere that sells slider knobs for the Pioneer DJM600?

Also I'm after some generic plain white 12" vinyl covers just like the black ones that covers 33 stock but their white ones are just card ones and not what I need Has anyone ever bought any decent white sleeves from anywhere they would recommend?

Cheers!

Mart

stopped off at ikea t'other day on me way back from sunny manc, and whilst in there spotted one of these bad boys (unit shown in attached image)

Bookcase
EXPEDIT
£69.00


my current units which also hold my decks as well as records are also from ikea ...... they cost me £30 a 4-cubed unit about 3/4 years back and i now have 4 storage units in total ..... 2 of these 4-cubed units hold a pair of decks + a mixer, and still have more space for more gear on top ...... unfortunately, they stopped doing em about a year ago the guy in the store me and the man like retro, but if your after something purely for storage of your records then this unit looks just the job its down from £100 to £69 now too .... winner andy bought one, so he'll tell you how bo they are ..... i'll deffo be purchasing 1 as soon as ive sorted all my living arrangements .....

 

[RetroAndy]

I can vouch for one of these. They are massive but it was just wat i needed to get vinyl offf the floor.

 

[bucky]

Agreed. Expedit are where it's at - got them in the black/brown colour. Defo made for storing vinyl

 

[LeedsDJ]

Hey Andy. forgive me in all my anorakness, but is that the back cover of Nothing is forever by Ultracynic I can see in that photo ? Choo choo :$

[Dannie Kavanagh]

I swear by them 12" sleeves from Covers 33..

Been using em' for years, great service too - and they are from Ripponden, which is literally a stones throw away from where I live!!

Anyone that's seen my trademark boxes packed with white sleeves will vouch for that!!

 

[woody]

just picked up my deckstand/vinyl cabinet tonight, and its fookin wikked
got the number of a guy who makes them specially, can do total custom builds and has a few standard sized ones to choose from.
very reasonable prices too

check the pic out, (still needs paintin tho) if anyone wants the guys number PM me..

 

[Jiglo]

Could somebody please say where they get their record cleaning cloths from?

Somebody on the forum once mentioned panty liners, but it could get me some funny looks if I leave them out

 

[fred_funk]

What do you need record cleaning cloths for?

Cheers fred_funk (and grover)

That's the thread I got the info from - even though my mind misread and reinterpreted what grover told me lol :$

I even accidentaly bought the wrong thing today by buying Superdrug 100% pure soft cotton wool 'roll' (instead of pads) and it's full of lint :|

Not only are the mailers good - the service is excellent. I've bought twice of these guys now and they've been fantastic both times.
