So you thought you’ve pirated everything huh?
Step 1
Using wooden strips, make a box around a glass plate. Seal off the edges using the window cement. Make sure everything is airtight.
Step 2
Place your record inside the box making sure that the portion to be copied is facing upward. Squeeze in some window cement to mark where the hole in the record is.
Step 3
Mix up some silicone [buy here] for about three minutes.
Step 4
Pour the mixture into the mould. Start from one corner and let it fill-up to about half-a-centimeter. Make sure it’s even. Let it dry for six hours.
Step 5
Peel off the silicone from the cast. Cut off the excess using a cutter.
Step 6
Pour some liquid plastic [buy here] on top of the silicone cast.
Step 7
Make sure that nothing spills over the round form. You can also brush off any air bubbles that might occur.
Step 8
Carefully loosen the plate from the silicone form. Using a drill press, bore a hole through the center of the plate. You can use the silicone form as a template to make more copies.
There you have it. Your very own pirated record.
