    Bull shite... But they need to be done by competent engineer's. If the final thickness of the disc's (after machining) is to be less than reccomended minimum thickness, you don't do it.
    They can be milled, or turned down in a lathe, but HAVE to be mounted on a backing plate to stop any flex during machining.

    Ah yes...it is why I said 'as a rule'. There are very few places that will touch a m/c disc. I think F1 Engineering in Hamilton is one of them?
    Do you realise how many holes there could be if people would just take the time to take the dirt out of them?
