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.

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

Pls!

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.

 

Mechanism from Aliexpress  

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

Knock yourself out @husoi 

[husoi]

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 .
