Good question. Why?

Just answer the question nosy.

Err, okay then. No!

Now are you going to tell us why?

Wanna do some so you'll have to buy them!

united record pressing does them, they started a couple years ago:

https://www.urpressing.com/7inch.php

unfortunately, there have been some quality control issues with stuff coming out of their plant recently

Thanks Bob, that's amazing that a US company would press UK style singles. The shipping costs might prohibit us using them though. I'll try Timmion direct but a UK company should be cheaper. Ta Ady

Last ones I saw were the ones below which look superb in my opinion, could pass off as an original 60's issue.

Only trouble is, I don't know who made them...

Thanks Pete, it's Cherry Red songs, maybe summat to do with them. If I had his number and a time machine I could ask old Northern Soulie Shelvo, he lived in the same block of flats as Laurel. They probably shared cheroots.

Laurel's long gone though Ady unfortunately. Can't work out how Cherry Red ended up with the publishing though.

Won't particularly help, but I'm positive I saw a recently pressed 45 with a pop-out centre earlier this year. Possibly it was at the Utrecht record fair. Thinking back, I recall remarking on the fact that such things could still be made today. It looked really cool.

Vague, I know, but my point is that they do exist. Although it could have come out of the pressing plant Bob mentioned of course...

french i think or eu

here is what the united pressing ones look like just for reference:

I thought United were the only place doing these?

I'm pretty sure these are all coming from United.

I think Tony knows who were the last people in the UK to do them.

I take it that these are not legit re-releases?

i don't understand what this has to do woth this thread?

Fck me i just realised i've not seen Shelvo in over 10 years.. Deano's 40th in Newcastle and he was 50 3months ago.

Ady this is a long shot but I'm sure the Madness NW5 / Bittersweet 45 on Lucky Seven Lucky7002S had a dinkout I know it was mastered by Tim Young at Metropolis sleeved by Cally at Antar, hope this helps.

Thanks people we've got a couple of lines of enquiry there. Ady

Ady,

I know someone with a "dinker machine". If they were to let it go you could offer two alternatives to buyers

I know you're not being serious, but the purpose of the pressing is to replicate what looks like a 60s UK pressing; not to give the users the actual functionality of the self-dinkable centers.

OK Bob.... guilty as charged
