I'd do a Fatal Four-Way vinyl split, but the songs have to be about pro-wrestling, and the artwork is a faux-Pay Per View event poster. WHO'S IN?

cheap low quality vinyl usually means lathe cut, which means it'll basically be un-listenable once you listen to it 5-10 times.

I found this project and remembered this thread! Assuming you or a maker near you has the required equipment, this could maybe be really really cheap to produce? The quality is shit, though.

I'd be interested to know if a lathe could be adapted to work with better material. Acetate and vinyl were the best they had in the 70s and 80s but we must have some form of plastic today that will hold together better.

Even if we have to use a press or mold process, surely one of the modern three-letter-acronym plastics fits the bill?

Interesting. non-vinyl records... Hm. Do people do that? People always say "there's just something special about the sound of vinyl". Doesn't not using vinyl defeat the purpose?

It's not literally the vinyl, it's the format of pressed spirals being read by analog equipment that they enjoy.  For the most part, it's down to the warmth of the amplifier and the imperfections on the record. 

Using modern plastic won't change those audio characteristics.
