Yesterday I received some 7" blanks.... and the song will not fit at 2 minutes and 30 seconds at 78rpm. So I'm now on the hunt for some custom 8" blanks and will report back later.
For those who are interested, only a hair over 2 minutes would fit on 7".

Contact shawn borri I believe he can make longer blanks as he trims his down after molding.

Would a slower speed like 60 RPM be feasible or will your equipment not handle it? I'd assume anyone with a windup could adjust accordingly, as speeds in the early days weren't standardized anyways.donniej wrote:Yesterday I received some 7" blanks.... and the song will not fit at 2 minutes and 30 seconds at 78rpm.
