The old disks are beyond repair, pitted badly.

The repair would bring them below recommended thickness so it's a no.

They still might be worth a call Welcome To The Disc Doctor.co.uk Custom Designed and Machined Brake Discs & Bike Parts. Helped us out with our Ducati disc issue and save us a small fortune.

Got the new EBC fitted now and they look great. like a diamond necklace :) 

 

Old ones aren't even branded. Maybe I'll make something with them ...

clean discs right up and make a coster or man cave ornament out of them but Youll be probably be glad to see the back of that lot. 😄

 

 

Said it, make a coaster, parts holder or bag the inside working of a manky Clock and use the disc as a case / background man clock... anyother ideas guys?

Maybe I'll use the 3 disks and make a clock out of it.

1 front disk as base, second front disk vertical as dial.

then cut the rear disk to fit inside the base to hold the vertical bit.

 

Watch this space :)

Changed my mind :)

 

will only use the front disks.

Can easily weld the 2 together and make a table clock.

Need to give them a good clean, remove the rust and dirt.

weld it in place then a good coat of clear varnish.

Maybe @Stu will let me use the forum's logo.

By any chance, does any of you guys know where I can turn the forum's logo into a semi circle?

The idea is to have it along the friction zone.

@husoi

I used to be able to do this with a cd/dvd label printing program, back in the days before streaming. 

I'm sure there must be some freebie programs still out there.

Clone cd I think it was .

Id prefer the letters being a quarters . T at 12, M at 3 etc and facing the correct way up top of font facing up at all times but thats my two pence worth.

That's actually a excellent idea :thumb: 

T @12  for, twelve o'clock

M @3 for, Me going to toilet time during the night.

B @6 for, Better go walk the dog (if you have one)

F @9 for, phokit, day almost over  🤭
