| Re: floating disks Harrison Billet do floaters with black centers as do others. Most of the big brake disc companies sell disc bobbin rebuild kits, so you could buy a plain or polished disc, remove the center and get it anodized at the local plaiting company.- (Or you can buy kits to do it yourself). Then just rebuild the disc. |

| Re: floating disks Cheers for that info. I've emailed them asking for some prices for the Nightrain as I want to replace both at the same time. I'd rather get the middles powder coated though so I've asked them to supply the bobbins separately. Note the piccy - my hands aren't even as steady as that ![]()

| Re: floating disks That was work in progress. Once finished I wiped around the edge with some spirits for a clean edge. My hand is not good enough to paint perfect circles. I may try a beer first next time. |

| Re: floating disks For my sins I'm an art teacher so I know how hard it is to paint or draw circles, I only put the comments on the piccy for Kib ![]()

| Re: floating disks You probably had a nice teacher, not like me - I'm a right B*****d if they don't behave. That said I seem to get the maximum amount of students opting for art each as their first choice so something must be ok ![]() Better get this back on track now as i want the damn floaters (discs that is) with black middles. If I have to do it myself then I'll be using masking tape - much easier ![]()
