carl_p Posted December 14, 2009 Share Posted December 14, 2009 I was always told they should be stored so they are in the vertical position. adding filler to make them perfectly vertical in a box or on a shelf. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Thanks..I use the carboard mailers as filler to keep it snug but not to snug.. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Diggin' Dave Posted December 15, 2009 Share Posted December 15, 2009 I've been wondering about the same thing a few months ago, but in retrospect I think it was just due to me sitting down in front of the turntable instead of standing up. With the 45s spinning in eyesight the warps were more noticeable. Didn't prevent me from freaking out and thinking the collection was slowly destroying itself though Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Mark S Posted December 15, 2009 Share Posted December 15, 2009 Dont store them play them thus less vertical time Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
