Well found the archives and searched warped and well there it is. Not alot of help but ok thanks for the suggestion.

when I start a thread here I am trying to gain knowledge from persons who have it without having to search archives full of alot of info which contains alot of needless crap. Not to say that there is not helpful info to be obtained.

Kind of appreciate an opinion from those who have experiences with the topic. If you do not know I am sure I, and others, would appreciate it if you would not respond to threads you feel are "below" you. If however you thought that you were being helpful I apologize and thank you.

So my question stands as stated. Does anyone know a remedy for a warped LP?
It plays but not so well. I am more worried about the effect it will have on my table so was looking for a way to fix it if possible.

Am sure this won't be the last warped lp I buy and to tell the truth I did not pay much for it so throwing it away would not kill me. Had I paid 30 bucks for it, as I have on others, I might be a bit upset.

I did find some ideas as suggested by Bdgregory(thanks) but am still open to suggestions from others who have tried to fix warped vinyl.

So, as stated earlier, any info from persons with experience in this matter will be appreciated
Thanks be intrested to know how it works out for you. I buy alot of lp's on audiogon and elsewhere and am sure to end up with more warped ones. Thats the chance I take buying sight unseen. Most of what I buy it in great shape.

Appreciate your input and good luck with your project this weekend.
Great and congrats on a positive result. For the price I shall also go get granite marble tiles and give it a try on an album I don't care much for. Just want to be sure my oven temp is ok then I will do it to others.

Thanks for your input Bdgregory and I will post my results also :)
