I don’t have a turn table but started getting curious about costs and other applications of this process. Turns out the instructions for making copies of vinyl records, are on the official Smooth-On website ( http://www.smooth-on.com/ ), however they use different Smooth-On products. http://www.smooth-on.com/gallery.php?galleryid=157&cPath=1157 Other projects can be found at the bottom of this page http://www.smooth-on.com/index.php?cPath=5_1120_1157 One example is “Replacing a Hard To Find Brass Shower Door Handle” by making a copy. The main list of how-to guides can be found at this URL http://www.smooth-on.com/howto.php
