Cleaning smaller records

You can't really clean 10" and 7" records very well on a VPI without getting the right sized tubes. They're rather overpriced IMO, and I think it'd be a pain to keep swapping them in and out.

Here is a video (rather amusing) where at 2:48 in a guy appears to be doing it just by putting a 12" record under the 7" record he wants to clean. Is this the answer?

I forgot to put in the link. Or Agon pulled it out. If it's the former, here it is.

I tried it. It didn't work too great. The top record was shellac. Maybe it'd work better with a thinner 45.

I also tried covering up the unneeded part of the suction tube with masking tape. Worked somewhat.
