I'm interested in machining thin disks - about 1 1/2" in diameter by 1/16".


What machining operations do you intend to do?


Hollowing - for the most part, starting from the middle out.
So one disk will nest inside a second disk.

The second operation I'd like to do is to add a different metal around
the rim of an existing disk. I can see using two mushrooms for part of
the process.
