Vinyl Addict PressWeight

A functional and cleanly designed 3D printed record weight, created to improve vinyl stability during playback. By adding centered mass on top of the record, vibrations are reduced and warped records are held flatter, resulting in more consistent playback and reduced skipping.

The design features a minimalist vinyl-inspired look combined with an internal structure that encapsulates metal nuts for optimal weight distribution.

Specifications

-Total weight: ~430 g

-Requires 24× M12 nuts (fully embedded in the print)

Print & Assembly Details

The included print profile contains built-in pauses, allowing you to insert the metal nuts during the print.

-Pause at layer 93 (~25.96 mm)

-Pause at layer 172 (~48.08 mm)

-Insert a total of 24× M12 nuts

During these pauses, the print head moves aside, making it easy to safely place the nuts so they become fully enclosed in the print.
