Velvet Vortex ultrasonic vinyl cleaner

Looks impressively serious for vinyl cleaning duties

Any plans o fit a Hoover to vacuum or a paint pad to clean in one go

I use a vacuum after it comes out of ultrasonic to remove the excess fluid. (Which isn’t a lot).
It doesn’t need a scrubbing pad the ultrasonic cavitation does all the work.
I’m not sure I could add a drying fan or vacuum and make it cost effective. At this point I’m still perfecting this part of the project.

Looking good :+1:

Triffic! :grinning:

That looks absolutely excellent!

Any update on this please?

Hi Guys
Yes
A few people have seen it now at a couple of bake offs and the reaction has been very positive.
I am just making one or two improvements to the design and then with @edd9000’s help we will be able to make some for interested parties.
If you are interested in owning one send me a PM.
Hope that helps.

Yeah guys you’ll need a bit of patience as there is usually a que for Edd’s help with parts and projects.

I’m keen no rush at all

A couple more tweaks.
Refitted shorter screws in saddles so no chance of catching records on the ends of the screws.
Made a motor mounting box out of a white box to better match the white plastic.

Got mine up and running today, it does seem to work well. Thanks Tim.

Just need to try it out on my copy of the Blade Runner 2049 OST @Mrs_Maureen_OPinion :wink:

Gah! Dammit! Why can’t you be more forgetful! I’d better pop-over, albeit I’m fairly (unexpectedly) busy this week! Thursday?

Thursday sounds good :smile:
