I would also like a price quote on a rotor 12" in diameter and 1/2"
thick with a 1" hole for the center bore. I am in the process of
building a rotary gap. I could make the rotor from lexan, but I would
still have to accurately cut, and balance a disc that will spin at 3000+
rpms! I don't have a lathe so it will be rather difficult.
