Spin Clean Record Washing System

The Spin Clean Record Washing System offers an alternative to the conventional brush method of cleaning your vinyl. The unique Spin Clean system allows you to clean both sides of your record at the same time using a special tank unit with attached record brush rollers that scrub the record clean in a bath of washer fluid. This washer fluid is created from a special formula that encapsulates the dirt and keeps it suspended in the system instead of evaporating or redepositing it back on to your valuable record. Once the record has been thoroughly cleaned simply remove it from the tank, place it on a flat surface and wipe dry with the drying cloth. A simple and very effective way to keep your vinyl collection in tip top shape. Comes with enough fluid to wash 700 records, and two lint free drying cloth. The system itself contains the dual brush set and a pair of adjustable rollers (33-45-78) plus a set of directions on the inside of the lid. All of this is packed in a handy storage box.

Furry-USBThe Modern Amulet by Magnhild Disington.

The Modern Amulet is a collection of USB keys. It is part one of two concepts for Kopenhagen Fur’s competition; The Golden Fur Neadle. The project from Magnhild Disington’s MA project Deviated Evolution where she worked with the relationship between humans and their portable electronics, and the lack of emotional appeal these products provide. With The Modern Amulet she tried to balance the emotional value between the information we carry and the objects we use to carry them.”

[ Note ] We don’t like the idea of using the fur.
